Evolution Not Revolution
At Harmonix, we know that the solution isn't to "rip and replace"
your existing legacy systems. Instead, we work with you to identify the
strengths of your application portfolio and infuse it with new technologies
where they can help unlock your applications' true business value. We
look for ways to detach your applications from the propriety platforms
they're currently tied to and transform them to operate in a more open
standards-based environment. This approach can enable you to align your
application portfolio more closely to today's business priorities, while
giving you the responsiveness you need to later realign your applications
as business priorities change.
Transforming your legacy applications to operate in this open standards-based
way also helps you share business and customer data across your enterprise
more quickly and easily. And think of the benefits of being able to more
easily; more fluidly connect with customers and partners. Imagine the
flexibility of being able to redesign business processes on the fly, adding
new functions and capabilities as your business needs change or new business
opportunities arise. Harmonix Technologies’ Legacy Transformation
Services can help you do these things and more.
With the aging, inflexible and costly systems that support operations
in these industries, adapting to a more flexible, responsive business
model has been a challenge for most companies. Product strategies, customer
centricity and distribution and services objectives have often been impeded
by core systems developed and deployed at an earlier time. And at a time
of increased competition in these industries, companies cannot afford
to have technology concerns holding them back.
Legacy transformation has allowed high performance companies to refocus
their activities from maintaining older systems tied to a single line
of business to enabling business processes that span the enterprise. This
refocusing has enabled these companies to break out of a mindset based
on traditional business silos and view their businesses from the point
of view of their customers. This new perspective has helped companies
develop innovative new products and services for their customers, with
increased communication and cooperation between lines of business helping
them bring these products to market more quickly than ever before.
Begin with the End in Mind
As a networking leader, we make it our business to add new value at every
level in your organization while supporting the applications that run
your business. As we work with you to design your solution we begin with
your end vision in mind. Utilizing our 5D Solution development methodology
we set out to work with you teams to focus on ROI delivering applications
that enhance the value proposition of you enterprise. These ROI goals
include hard dollar savings, enhanced customer and employee satisfaction
and competitive differentiators to name a few. Our team then plots out
our plan working down the OSI model to determine what altercation will
be needed within the network fabric to deliver and effectively maintain
these key business applications. We look to see what legacy equipment
can be reused and migrated forward and where we will need to design in
new elements to support the new services. Upon completion of the project
we work diligently with our client to develop a maintenance and on-going
upgrade migration path that meets the long-term objectives of the enterprise.
