How can I tell if an application requires Enterprise Edition.

I have a new client who have no in-house Oracle expertise. Their external software developer told them they needed Enterprise Edition, but I am fairly sure they can get by with Standard (and save a lot of money in the process)

Obviously, I will ask the developer why they think EE is needed, but I suspect they don't know. They have just done a default Next|Next|Next.. installation and probably don't know which bits they are using are enterprise and which standard.

I am wondering if there is a straight forward way of detecting the use of Enterprise features. For example, references to OLAPSYS packages in the applications stored programs would mean that it is using OLAP features. Is this approach feasible do you think?
