smartShift Methodology
The smartShift Methodology:
Unique. Powerful.
"Our goal is the comprehensive and systematic renovation of your IT systems, a goal that smartShift makes possible for the modernization of virtually any legacy platform to any target environment."
Years of project experience and a constant flow of improvements have shaped our methodology, making it a uniquely powerful solution in the modernization market. The smartShift method goes much further than conventional application porting, migration to new hardware platforms and the conversion of databases by relying upon a refined set of modern software tools that can be used for almost any platform with virtually no customization effort required. The tools support and automate analysis, planning, implementation and operation. Specially designed processes and methods further complement and complete the set, so that together, tools, processes and methods form a comprehensive, customer-specific, fully customizable platform for a near-to limitless range of modernization projects.
The smartShift methodology makes an iterative and evolutionary approach to system modernization possible. Major systems are broken down into many smaller blocks and tasks executed step-by-step, minimizing risk and facilitating a smooth, manageable transition into a new IT environment.
Additionally, our methodology makes it possible to modernize those parts of a project that promise high potential savings first, so that those savings can then flow into the following projects. Quick wins to minimize investment risks without putting extra stress on your liquidity.
smartShift assures:
- Existing legacy-system functionality remains
- No changes to application logic
- Complete rollback possible at any time
- No loss of source information
- Application and business-process know how preserved
