Oracle sells products/services that thousands or millions of organizations purchase. That's a completely different kind of business arrangement than something that a single entity purchases once. If you hire a software consultant to build you a custom system, they're definitely going to charge you for the time they spend writing documentation.
- pm321 6y agoNot hard to imagine scenario after political wrangling where initiative is launched and the first thing the new entity does is buy Oracle for HR very special edition which eats up all the budget for the first years of its life. And nothing is left to the original reason for being for that entity.
