Modernizing IT systems is often associated with high costs and heavy lifting. But it doesn't always have to be that way. With the right strategy, businesses can innovate incrementally, reusing existing solutions - while building a foundation for the future.

For many of our customers, we see a combination of Oracle Forms and Oracle APEX.
Forms still takes care of business-critical processes.
APEX provides room for innovation, flexibility and is the future strategic platform.
This interaction provides a safe way forward: reliability on the old - and development power on the new.

Gradual transition - with focus on the data model

We help companies with a gradual transition to APEX. We often start with either the simplest applications or the most critical ones.
Modernization is not just about refurbishing the user interface. To succeed, you also need to review the data model. A good architecture lays the foundation:

  • more flexible reporting
  • better integrations
  • full utilization of the APEX platform's potential

What about Forms?

Forms still play an important role - but they need to be on a supported platform to be a bridge to future APEX solutions.
We have recently completed our first upgrade to Oracle Forms 14.1.2 (LTS) - an important step for both compliance and risk mitigation.

For those still on Oracle Forms 12.2: Premier Support ends in December 2026.

Now is the time to plan, avoid additional costs associated with Extended Support - and at the same time consider new functionality in Oracle database 23ai / AI database 26ai.

More than technology - a partner on the journey

Modernizing systems is never just a technical project. It's about securing business-critical processes, creating new opportunities and building a future-proof platform.
We can offer you:

  • step-by-step modernization to APEX
  • operation and management of both APEX and Forms - also 24/7
  • advice on data model, architecture and database selection


We are currently working with several projects in various industries to renew and strengthen their IT portfolio.
