Application Delivery Management Office

Consistent delivery of high-performance applications, on time, within budget and with a quality unmatched in the marketplace

Delivering a sound application that meets your requirements calls for timely management of all development processes, from design and development to quality assurance and testing. Our Applica�tion Delivery Management (ADM) solution helps ensure your IT projects address and remain focused on business requirements.

Our Application Delivery Management projects fall within four key areas:

Business Requirements Management

Our Business Requirements Management framework emphasizes the importance of properly executing critical requirements processes (requirements gathering, analysis, documentation, change con�trol, and validation) and active participation by key stakeholders throughout the project life cycle.

This framework also integrates best-in-class tools to effectively capture and manage business requirements. Our approach to Business Requirements Management improves collaboration be�tween business and IT groups, and results in substantial qualitative and quantitative benefits to an organization�s operations.

Our Enterprise Legacy Modernization solution is squarely targeted at solving today�s critical mainframe issues of cost, agility, complexity, and skills shortage. Through ELM, jCentricity can reduce mainframe ap�plication costs by 25 to 50 percent while providing a solid platform to discover, rationalize, sustain, optimize, extend, and transform your mainframe application portfolio. We identify:

• Significant reduction of legacy application costs from day one

• A rationalized legacy application portfolio and modernization plan
• Increased value, longevity and performance of existing legacy platforms
• Modernization and extension of legacy systems to support IT goals
• Delivery of critical skills and an experienced and reliable mainframe labor force
