modernization assessment

A comprehensive evaluation of your legacy barriers to software modernization

We assess your software development strategy and software product architecture in short order at a fair price

The journey to digital modernization requires dedication, streamlining of resources, and internal buy-in. The most critical step is the first: understanding what digital transformation and legacy IT modernization mean to your organization.

What we offer

  • An in-depth report on the current state of your software systems
  • Complete documentation of your product architecture and applications
  • Fixed cost and transparent timeframes
  • No strings attached: no hidden clauses that bind you to our services for the implementation phase
  • Documented findings and recommendations that help you justify the need for legacy modernization to your internal stakeholders

what we do

Our process

Together, we define the business goals for the modernization assessment

We pinpoint change drivers via kickoff meetings with stakeholders. These discussions help us grasp your domain, priorities, and how the assessment aids your long-term vision. We outline the restrictions and requirements that may impact the modernization assessment, ensuring alignment on desired outcomes and success criteria for the modernization assessment.

Executive Overview

We assess the current state and document the architecture of applications

Our experts collaborate with your team to assess your environment. Initially, we define the scope and key functional areas for modernization. Our team then engages in technical calls to understand your software architecture and technologies from various perspectives:
  • System functionality and critical capabilities
  • User behavior, patterns, and future requirements
  • Deep dive into the ecosystem’s components:

    • System architecture
    • Technology layers
    • Storage technologies
    • Deployment infrastructure
    • Frameworks
    • Programming languages
    • Tools and services
  • Third-party integrations, interfacing with external systems
  • Security, permissions, and licensing
Via online meetings with your experts and an analysis of system architecture, source code, user interfaces, and third-party components, we create a systematic technical report. This report forms the basis for a customized modernization strategy for your organization.
After documenting technical findings, we conduct an online meeting to present and validate our analysis, identifying additional areas for exploration. In this second phase’s conclusion, we document all technical details and present them for your validation and approval.

deliverables

Complete documentation of all products and applications. A detailed report on all technical findings.

We make recommendations based on gap analysis and roadmap design

In phase three, our team will reveal the gaps within your existing environment and put together an action plan for a modern system architecture that:
  • Preserves all critical features and capabilities from the existing system
  • Leverages a modern, future-proof technology stack that fits the organization’s long-term vision
  • Minimizes disruption in customer experience, established user patterns and expectations
We share a final draft with the customer for feedback and refining the modernization assessment report. The report includes an iterative software development strategy proposing the release of new and modernized functionalities to the install base regularly.

Bonus

In the modernization assessment package, we include a “proof of concept” project outline. This validates the new architecture and development process, detailing scope, costs, required resources, and a tentative timeframe.
