Company IT Director

Headquartered in Singapore, this SoftwareONE customer is an integrated supplier of products and tools for Oil and Gas Mining, petrochemical and energy industries around the globe. They supply oceanic offshore engineering, certification and test services through a network of offices and warehouses in ten countries.

    • Customer: Industrial Equipment Supplier

    Industry: Services, Equipment and Tools within Oil & Gas/Marine & Mining Industries

    Services: Oracle Advisory Services (incl. e.g. License Audit Support, Software and License Management); Oracle Cloud

    This SoftwareONE customer uses Oracle Database, E- Business Suite Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) and Business Intelligence analytics to manage their business. Initially, they had purchased an enterprise license that entitled them to 1000 users. However, over a period of years, they had reduced active users to just a third of their allotted number. Even with this user change, Oracle would not give any cost relief and continued to increase license and maintenance fees by 3% annually. Seeking an effective resolution, the customer decided to engage SoftwareONE’s Oracle Advisory Practice to complete a compliance analysis and recommend potential cost saving remedies.

    They engaged SoftwareONE’s Oracle Advisory Practice to conduct an Oracle assessment. The result was an Oracle Effective License Position (ELP) and commercial advisory that brought them into compliance and saved substantial costs through technology consolidation, including cloud motion.

    • The customer has achieved complete Oracle Effective License Position (ELP)
    • Additional license expenses have been avoided
    • Annual support costs have been reduced by S$300,000
    • The move to Oracle Cloud and subscription payments will further reduce yearly expenses
