Customer database team is doing using oracle specific tools, sap doesnt force you to use brconnect right.
Thre you are wrong.
You can use the oracle tools (DBMS_STATS) but SAP does not support their usage "directly" only via BRCONNECT.
Check SAP Note 105047 - Support for Oracle functions in the SAP environment
point 21:
21. DBMS_STATS
You cannot use DBMS_STATS to create statistics directly on a regular basis.
You can use DBMS_STATS to create statistics via BRCONNECT (SAP Note 408532).
