OUM vs. AIM: Oracle Unified Methodology vs.

Application Implementation Methodology

This article maps the most commonly used documents in the AIM Methodology to those in the OUM or Oracle Unified Method method ology. In this
sense, this will be of some use to those who implement Oracle Applications using the age-old AIM, but have been asked by client to implement
using OUM.

This is by no means a comprehensive or even an authoritative list. For Partners who have access, the complete listing of such documents can be
found on Oracle Partner Website.
