Application Transformation is a critical part of a comprehensive IT strategy.  What is Application Transformation?  PCS defines it as re-engineering existing or legacy systems to serve existing business objectives and/or achieve new business objectives.  A mission critical legacy system may be re-engineered or modernized either partially, fully or added to as part of an enterprise digital strategy.  PCS leverages its expertise in Cloud, Mobile, Artificial Intelligence, Big Data, Analytics and DevOps in the application modernization effort.  Often companies may evolve a high level Digital IT Strategy but still remain unsure of where and how to begin their Application Transformation effort.   PCS views Application Portfolio Analysis or Application Portfolio Management (APM) as an important tool towards achieving Application transformation across the digital enterprise. APM is the continuous evaluation and assessment of an organization’s applications from value, availability, flexibility, and technological perspectives. An application portfolio is the extension of an overall Digital IT Strategy, a critical business asset and must be managed as such. Successful APM helps align application portfolio and application inventory with business goals, increases IT value to business, enables decision making about digital investments, digital marketing, social media, mobile offerings and provides better control over software that automates and drives a company’s business.
