$5.1 million in cost savings
Bold Technology Group’s strategic guidance enabled the client to fully leverage the value of their expiring Oracle ULA, capturing over $5 million in assets and establishing a flexible, cost-controlled environment for future growth.
The challenge
Operating under an existing Oracle Unlimited License Agreement (ULA) - with the ULA expiration approaching, the client needed a definitive, long-term strategy to:
-
Maximize all remaining deployment rights under the ULA before certification.
-
Establish a controlled, long-term licensing model to minimize future costs and free up inventory for new projects.
-
Navigate the complex ULA certification process while ensuring maximum value capture.
The Bold solution
Bold Technology Group initiated a strategic, time-sensitive project focused on maximizing the client's Oracle deployments:
-
Platform Optimization: Identifying and successfully migrating physical environments to virtual environments.
-
Feature Deployment: Ensuring all necessary Database Options were deployed.
-
Access Expansion: Strategic expansion of user access for Applications.
-
Long-Term Inventory Planning: Proactively working with the client to identify environments that could be resized in the long term to free up certified inventory for potential future projects.
The results
Through proactive strategy and expert license maximization, Bold Technology Group delivered a significant, measurable return on the client's technology investment.
"Bold was a game-changer. With an extremely complex set of requirements and contract needs, they helped save over $5+ million while supporting the elimination of future risk. Bold gave us a total win, even reducing deployment time-constrained models. They are the best in this space."
Roger Czuchra, Former CIO Industrial at Stanley Black & Decker
"Bold has been an excellent partner to work with over the years and they are experts in Oracle licensing. I highly recommend their services for any organization who has made or is considering investments in Oracle software and services."
Dave Jackson, CIO Welch's
"Bold is a real asset to our organization and trusted advisor. They help us manage a large Oracle License and Cloud footprint and ensure that we are fully prepared and explore all options when working with Oracle. Having Bold on our site provides peace of mind that we are negotiating the best agreements and keeps us a highly informed buyer. I would recommend Bold to any Oracle customer looking to maximize these important software and cloud investments."
Larry Frank, Vice President of Enterprise Systems Scientific Games
"Bold's extensive Oracle expertise is second to none. I have worked with Oracle for over 20 years and I thought I knew all of the in’s and out’s of Oracle pricing but Bold had the additional insight that I did not have. They helped us maximize our Oracle investments and they are a pleasure to work with. Their “inner Oracle workings” advice around discounts was invaluable in negotiating optimal pricing. In addition, they are available at all times to answer questions and walk you through all scenarios."
Giovanni Candeloro, former Guardian Life Insurance, Director, Database & Middleware Engineering & Support
$8M Software Cost Reduction for Industrial Manufacturer
Bold Technology Group advised an industrial manufacturing client on Oracle licensing strategy, helping avoid a $14.6M proposed commitment and achieve an $8 million reduction in capital outlay while eliminating long-term licensing exposure.
The challenge
The client initiated a major Finance Transformation Project that required significant new software licensing. Early planning assumed a large, time-bound licensing commitment, creating uncertainty around cost, deployment flexibility, and long-term exposure. The key challenge was determining whether this approach aligned with the client’s actual business and technology needs.
The Bold solution
Bold Technology Group was engaged to provide independent, objective guidance on licensing strategy and commercial options.
-
Comprehensive evaluation: Bold worked closely with the client to assess multiple licensing structures and commercial scenarios.
-
Risk-informed analysis: Through detailed modeling and scenario analysis, Bold identified material cost and flexibility considerations associated with time-constrained licensing approaches.
-
Negotiation support: Bold advised the client throughout discussions with the software vendor, helping the client pursue an alternative structure better aligned with its financial and deployment requirements.
The results
As a result of the revised licensing strategy and negotiated agreement, the client significantly reduced upfront capital commitments and improved long-term flexibility for the Finance Transformation Project, delivering substantial near-term savings and a more balanced risk profile.
