Playbook: APEX development partner scorecard

Egisedge's weighted scorecard and checklist for choosing an Oracle APEX development company.

Ask an Egisedge consultant
  1. Agree weights with the steering group before proposals arrive: APEX and PL/SQL depth 20%, data design 15%, security 15%, integration 15%, method 10%, testing 10%, delivery and hours 10%, support 5%.
  2. Ask each bidder for named developers, a sample data model and sample PL/SQL packages.
  3. Ask how they secure pages, buttons and rows, and how they integrate with Oracle Fusion (REST Data Sources or OIC).
  4. Confirm the prototype date, sprint and demo plan, source control and scripted deployment.
  5. Check the UAT plan, upgrade testing and support service levels.
  6. Score each area 1 to 5, multiply by the weights and compare totals alongside price.
  7. Write ownership of code, exports and documents into the contract.
