Oracle Intelligent Advisor (OIA), formerly known as Oracle Policy Automation (OPA), is a suite of decision automation software products used for modeling and deploying business rules within the enterprise. Oracle Corporation acquired OPA in December 2008 when it purchased an Australian software company named RuleBurst Holdings, then trading as Haley.[2] The role of the Oracle Intelligent Advisor is to transform legislation and policy documents into executable business rules, for example, the calculation of benefit entitlements or discount amounts. Although OPA was originally developed and sold to the public sector,[3] it is now widely used in the industry.[4]

Oracle Intelligent Advisor continues to be available as an on-premise offering (known as private cloud) and as a public cloud solution. Web Service and generic connectors provide integration interfaces for applications or platforms using JSON and XML, enabling them to be the source of input data and the target of the results of the automated decision. Full auditing, traceability, transcripts, and decision reporting, helps organizations to understand and justify the decision automation outcomes.
