ORACLE UNIFIED METHOD (OUM)
INTRODUCTION
Oracle is evolving the Oracle® Unified Method (OUM) to realize the vision of supporting the entire Enterprise IT lifecycle, including support for the successful implementation of every Oracle product. You can tailor OUM to support your specific project situation. With its ready-made templates, guidelines, and scalable work breakdown structure, OUM provides the programmatic tools you need to manage the risks associated with your project.OUM provides support for Application Implementation, Cloud Application Services Implementation, and Software Upgrade projects as well as the complete range of technology projects including Business Intelligence (BI), Enterprise Security, WebCenter, Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA), Application Integration Architecture (AIA), Business Process Management (BPM), Enterprise Integration, and Custom Software. Detailed techniques and tool guidance is provided, including a supplemental guide related to Oracle UPK and Tutor.
OUM includes three Focus Areas – Manage, Envision, and Implement. OUM's Manage focus area provides a framework in which all types of projects can be planned, estimated, controlled, and completed in a consistent manner. OUM’s Envision focus area deals with development and maintenance of enterprise level IT strategy, architecture, and governance. Envision also assists in the transition from enterprise-level planning and strategy activities to the identification and initiation of specific projects. The Implement focus area provides a framework to develop and implement Oracle-based business solutions with precise development and rapid deployment.

OUM Approach
OUM is built on five main principles derived from the Unified Process, the Dynamic Systems Development Method (DSDM), and Oracle's legacy methods. Those are:- Iterative and Incremental
- Business Process and Use Case-Driven
- Architecture-Centric
- Flexible and Scalable
- Risk-Focused
