Dynamic Business Applications
"Globalization, rapid market change, a changing workforce and regulations have turned the desire for more agile and usable applications into a business imperative," Leaver writes. "As a result, process and applications professionals are on the hook to deliver more of these applications," which Forrester calls Dynamic Business Applications. She says that Microsoft, Oracle, SAP and IBM are helping by delivering more flexible cross-functional applications, "but legacy architectures, entrenched business models, maintenance and support requirements, and {licensing constructs} will limit how far these vendors go."

Explanation:
Right, your understanding is correct. It refers to the way or the structure of how the license is outlined and respected. So 许可框架 is better than 许可条款.

When we talk about 结构 or 框架, it's the big picture; whereas we find the details in 条款. The license construct is mostly concerned with how the license is built up (constructed), such as territory, exclusivity, sub-licensing, and so on. From the context it looks that the article is talking about the overall situation. 许可 is more widely used for software and applications.

Asker: “授权”与“许可”还是有区别吧?!

agree  吴晶艳 (X): 无论用“框架“还是“条款“,这句话的意思都通。框架就表示licensing framework,条款就是licensing terms。框架是大致的意思,而真正在法律方面有效则是各个小小的条款。
