Case Study: S&C Electric Company achieves optimized IT licensing and streamlined license management with Oracle License Management Services

S&C Electric Optimizes IT Licensing Investment and Streamlines License Management after Comprehensive Review

S&C Electric Company, a 2,000-employee global manufacturer of electric power switching, protection and power‑quality equipment headquartered in Chicago, runs core business processes on Oracle Database, E‑Business Suite R12 and Fusion Middleware. With a large, two‑decade Oracle footprint and upcoming moves to Oracle Linux, the company needed better visibility into license deployment, compliance and the financial impact of future purchases.

S&C engaged Oracle License Management Services for a five‑month review using Oracle scripts to collect accurate data. The engagement increased internal licensing knowledge, streamlined license management and compliance, enabled realistic budgeting for migrations and growth, and led S&C to join an Oracle advisory group to sustain best practices and avoid financial surprises.
