| Migrations come about because existing
applications or infrastructure are either
no longer supported or they no longer support
your business needs. An MB Foster Assessment
helps you look at how your applications
meet your business goals for the next three
to five years. As part of this assessment,
we work with both your management and technical
teams to ask these questions: |
| |
- How well does the current application
meet your existing and future business
needs?
- How do you sustain your applications,
now and into the future, by having the
right skills on staff or outsourced?
- Does the application simplify business
workflow?
- What are all the applications that
are in use today and what major business
areas do they impact?
- Are reports, data extracts, and interfaces
between applications providing the right
information to stakeholders at the right
time?
- What are the technical risks of the
current infrastructure and applications?
|
| The result of the assessment is a report,
suitable for both your senior management
and your technical teams, that provides: |
| |
- Detailed review of all applications
and data currently in use.
- Risk and sustainability of both your
applications and operations are identified.
- The approximate effort and cost to
move or replace existing applications
as necessary.
- An estimate for building the detailed
plan.
|
| This assessment report is actionable and
forms the basis for decisions moving forward,
whether or not you continue to work with
MB Foster. By having a clear picture of
the current situation, you can insure that
all necessary systems will be included in
the application and migration planning.
Lack of this information is the most significant
reason that migration projects either fail
completely or are implemented far over budget
and delivered late. We also include an outline
of the project governance that we recommend
to insure that your future efforts stay
on track. |
