Oracle WebCenter specialists
Your WebCenter estate, in expert hands.
Twenty years of upgrades, migrations and integrations across Oracle WebCenter Content, Imaging, Capture and Forms Recognition, tied into E-Business Suite, Fusion Cloud and PeopleSoft. We protect the investment you have made and extend it on your timeline.
Four doors into the practice
Upgrades
12c → 14c, component by component
WebCenter, SOA Suite, WebLogic, BPM, ADF, Forms, Identity Management and ODI. Out-of-place upgrade, validation, clone-for-test, and the sustaining-support decision when an upgrade is not the answer.
Migrations
Move the workload, keep the estate
Repositories to OCI. AP imaging to Fusion Cloud. Forms Recognition to OCI Document Understanding. Records retention, managed attachments, ADF forms — each with a written decision behind it.
Support retainers
A standing engineer for the estate
Banked engineer days for patches, break-fix and advice. A fixed window around one upgrade or migration. Or a one-time estate review with a written roadmap.
Field notes
What we found on the job
Patch trains, component behaviour, integration detail. Written for the administrator who has run this estate for years and wants the specific answer, not the overview.
The 12c → 14c programme, on one line
See every component's 14c path2025
14c (14.1.2) releases available
WebCenter, SOA Suite, WebLogic, BPM, ADF and ODI ship 14.1.2. Oracle Forms 14c is 14.1.2 (February 2025); Identity and Access Management 14c is 14.1.2.1 (March 2025).
December 2026
Premier Support for Fusion Middleware 12c ends
The last month of Premier Support for the 12c release train. Upgrade programmes that want to finish under Premier plan backwards from here.

Extended Support for Fusion Middleware 12c ends
Extended Support runs for one further year. After it, 12c moves to Sustaining Support.
Dates are as published; confirm against the current Oracle Lifetime Support Policy before you plan around them.
What we work on
The WebCenter family first, and the Fusion Middleware around it — because a WebCenter upgrade is a WebLogic upgrade, and often a SOA, ADF or identity upgrade too.
