Initial Situation
Alegacy IT system is over 30 years old and must be replaced, despite being perfectly tailored to the client’s needs
As a central element of the IT landscape, the outdated technology is blocking progress - within the system, and for its entire architecture
Approach
We take a hybrid project approach to combine traditional cost and dependency management with agile development
Two overarching, equally weighted project goals are defined: new user-friendly software and an optimized system landscape
We involve management and all user groups right from the start to support decision-making and establish acceptance for change at an early stage
Result
The new software is successfully implemented after 2 years of development
A future-proof IT system landscape for further development and maintenance
A blueprint for continuous development and subsequent line operation
Success Factors:
Compact core team of internal experts and method-savvy consultants; clear communication formats to ensure transparency.
