The Initial Situation.
An over 30 years old legacy IT system needed to be replaced, even though it was perfectly tailored to the client‘s needs
As a central element of the IT landscape, the outdated technology hindered not only the system itself but also the entire architecture from progressing
The Approach.
We implemented a hybrid project approach combining traditional cost and dependency management with agile development
Two overarching, equally weighted project goals were defined: a user-friendly new software and an optimized system landscape
We involved all user groups and management from the start to support decision-making and established early acceptance for change
The Result.
Successful implementation of the new software after 2 years of development
A future-ready IT system landscape for further development and maintenance
A blueprint for continuous development and subsequent line operation
The Success Factors:
a small core team of internal experts and method-savvy consultants; clear communication formats to ensure transparency.
