Your Trusted Audit Defense Against Oracle Demands
Oracle’s complex licensing rules often lead to overspending. Our Audit Defense service conducts an independent audit of your infrastructure to help you legally reduce software costs and ensure full compliance. Our team is based in the UAE and deeply understands local business needs.
Oracle’s License Management Services (LMS) department is more than just a team of auditors. Their primary goal is to identify opportunities to increase sales, often interpreting licensing rules to favor Oracle, which can lead to costly fines and mandatory purchases if not managed correctly. Managing an Oracle audit independently is fraught with risk, which is why expert Audit Defense matters.
Our Solution - Strategic Audit Defense
We act as a buffer between your company and Oracle LMS. Our Audit Defense takes over all communication and protects your data through a structured strategy:
- Analysis of Oracle’s initial request and development of a response strategy considering local business practices
- Independent verification of collected data before it is transferred to the vendor
- Conducting tough negotiations to reduce the amount of claims
- Developing a remediation plan (True-Up) on the most favorable terms for you
