1. No headcount from you needed
✓ No ADF developers in your company
✓ ADF has nothing in common with the PL/SQL
✓ Market conditions and the fierce competition for ADF developers
It’s way smarter to outsource it and involve zero headcount for the ADF development.

2. Learning opportunity
✓ Learn the best practices from experts
✓ Quickly evolve into being able to
develop the necessary ADF skills
✓ Build your new forms directly in ADF
✓ Support the system by your own
This will not only save you money from trainings and support expenses but will improve the moral of your employees.

3. Time optimization (Instant delivery)
✓ Hire a company with experience in migrations:• instant start • instant delivery
✓ Hire your own people will cost:• lot of time• money • nerves

4. No Bias ✓ Involve all the best practices:
• combine Oracle Forms together to make a single ADF Form
• remove some fields from the old Form • a complete change of the UI
✓ Fluent integration because:• people used to work with Oracle Forms
for sure will be biased • won’t have the fair view of an expert
Often companies specialized in migration have usability expertise which improves the user satisfaction for the newly migrated system.

5. Best Practices
✓ Architectural • you need a complete redesign of the existing
application• you need to know the SOA and BPM
features provided by the framework and apply them in advance
✓ Process • migrate step by step• wizzard-like forms instead of heads-down
Forms approach• UI & UX - there are tens of new UI features
in ADF

6. Cost Decrease
Outsourcing to a company that has expertise in Oracle Forms to ADF migration will save you money especially if this company comes from an Eastern European country like Bulgaria - second worldwide for certified professionals per capita.
The cost reductions will come from money saved for trainings, wages and support.
