BACKGROUND: Oracle Applications Users Group (OAUG) was formed in the San Francisco Bay Area in May 1990 when 32 Oracle Applications users gathered to create an independent forum for the exchange and expression of information concerning the effectiveness of Oracle Applications. At that time, members agreed that the OAUG would remain an independent voice, promoting education, networking, communications and information sharing and opened a dialogue with Oracle representatives about product development, quality and support.

With a wide range of activities such as conferences, publications, affiliated group events, and a variety of member services, OAUG works to increase the members' knowledge and understanding of Oracle Applications and to communicate their issues and needs to Oracle Corporation.
