Application Rationalization Reduces Costs and Complexity
Application rationalization and consolidation is particularly important in companies who have undergone significant merger and acquisition activity and is a strategy employed by CIOs to reduce costs and complexity.
 "In today’s highly competitive financial services industry, it is imperative that we continually improve internal development efficiency throughout our organization. We chose MKS because we felt the company was best positioned to help us improve quality and shorten our time-to-market, ensuring our technology partnerships with credit unions remain rock solid. MKS’s solution is used in multiple Fiserv locations and references from other users were extremely positive. We believe the MKS Integrity Solution will meet all of our necessary criteria and allow USERS to continue its track record of high-quality service to our clients." -Sal LaBricciosa, VP Process and System Services, USERS Incorporated, a unit of Fiserv, Inc. |
MKS's Portfolio capability connected directly to lifecycle data allows CIOs to have visibility over their entire application portfolio and all related development and maintenance activities. Most IT organizations today are spending up to 75% of their AD budget on maintenance activities and only 25% on new innovation.
With real time metrics at the application and project level in hand, CIOs can begin to make informed decisions around rationalization/consolidation, and rebalance their IT spending in order to fuel innovation.
