Maintaining Custom Applications

Custom applications are often required to meet operational demands. They typically support core functions of the business or department and often stay with the business for many years.

Over time, issues around COST and INFLEXIBILITY can arise.

Attain IT offers pragmatic advice to assist customers to develop strategies to extract maximum life from their application investment whilst supporting evolving business needs and developing robust strategies for the future.

Our strategy and solution design expertise is complemented by robust development skills. This delivers dual benefit to our customers;

  1. An application roadmap which makes sense for your business.
  2. Solution design which draws upon deep understanding of the technology to ensure you are never left with an unworkable solution – just solid design which not only works, but keeps on working as requirements change.

When you assess the current status of your custom application, or ecosystem including many custom applications, how satisfied are you with the following?

  1. Making changes to the application today
    • Difficult?
    • Expensive?
    • Restrictive?
  2. Aligning with business process
    • Does the application match your business process?
    • How well do the people maintaining your application really understand the business process/es it supports?
    • How useful is the reporting from this environment?
  3. Managing application cost
    • Is the application still delivering value to your business?
    • Can you predictably budget for application support costs?
    • Are you getting value for your application support dollar?

Where can Attain IT help?

  • If simple changes cost too much, take too long or are just “too hard”
  • If developers come and go too readily and you need long term reliability
  • If budgets are shrinking and you need a smarter strategy
  • If your application is inflexibly architected or on old technology
