Core software revival
Together we ensure that your core systems are not a hindrance, but an enabler of your business and your competitiveness!
Because yesterday's core software isn’t good enough to shape tomorrow's business
Core software systems are the backbone of every company. Outdated ones hamper your business’s competitiveness and innovative strength, harbouring high entrepreneurial risk. Modernizing core software, however, is a challenge – not least because large parts of the business depend on the core systems’ availability. Fears of failing are therefore understandable. This is why you need an experienced partner to help you modernise your core software.
Together, we tackle the professional overhaul of your core software and ensure the successful modernization of your core applications with a great deal of experience and proven process models. Consulting with experienced consultants and using best practice examples in UX, UI, and a high level of implementation and integration know-how, we ensure that your new core software offers the services and features that create sustainable business value for your company.
With your business goals and IT strategy in focus, we analyse your existing core software and jointly determine the need for modernisation. Based on the analysis and taking into account your systems and processes, we show different modernisation scenarios and replacement models, such as the use of standard software, low-code platforms or re-write but also possible change models such as Lift & Shift, Transpile or Refactor. Supported by proven process models, including a decision matrix and ROI analysis, we jointly select the mix and variant that offers you the best technology for your core software and the greatest business benefit.
