Summary

Due to Oracle's complex rules, protracted audit and costly penalties for non-conformity and change, members have requested a rapid response Oracle Licensing workshop to discuss the problems, explore them further, and propose solutions or plans of action to mitigate any escalation or potential future difficulties.

Objectives

Register for the workshop now to draw on the experience of your corporate IT peers and the expertise of external Licence Management consultants to strengthen your audit and licence renegotiation position. Within a confidential environment, you can compare preparations, negotiations and experiences, and better understand the workings of Oracle’s licensing models and audit processes from the perspective of an independent licensing expert.

This workshop is in fast-track development so if you would like to join, please register on the website now or submit discussion topics for the agenda.

Who should attend

The workshop is aimed at Oracle customers involved with licensing, audits and procurement but any current or prospective Oracle customers with an interest in these areas will benefit.
