What Wayne-Burt Technologies does

Wayne-Burt Technologies is a privately held, India-based Independent Software Vendor (ISV) founded in 1999 and headquartered in Nungambakkam, Chennai, with 251-500 employees. The company specializes in migrating legacy Oracle Forms applications to modern web-enabled platforms and complements this tooling with Oracle Applications implementation and offshore development services delivered to enterprise clients worldwide through the Oracle Partner Network. S.K. Abdul Rahman serves as President & CEO.

The core product portfolio comprises three proprietary migration tools: Forms*NOVA, which converts SQL*Forms v2.3 and V3.x applications to Oracle Developer Forms v6i or 9i using user-friendly wizards with support for CUI, GUI, and WEB deployment; Forms*9iMIGRATOR, which migrates older Oracle Forms versions (V2 through V6.0/6i) to V9i Web-enabled with V2-Step Logic-to-PL/SQL conversion; and Forms*10gMIGRATOR, a single-roof solution that delivers instant web deployment on Forms 10g via 3-Tier Architecture. These tools are supported by an Oracle Competency Center dedicated to Oracle Migration, Domain Services, and Maintenance, plus offshore development capabilities using ISES, YOURDON, S-Designer, and SSAD methodologies.

The business model derives revenue from two streams: one-time software licenses for the proprietary migration tools and professional services revenue from Oracle E-Business Suite (Release 10.7 to 11i) implementation, migration, and offshore development engagements. Go-to-market combines enterprise field sales direct to corporate clients with channel distribution through the Oracle Partner Network. The company has disclosed development of a J2EE front-end migration tool, indicating an effort to extend its migration technology footprint beyond Oracle Forms; however, the underlying market for legacy Oracle Forms modernization is structurally narrowing as enterprises transition to cloud-native and SaaS platforms.
