In an Enterprise involved in Mergers, acquisitions, disinvestments in this multi-vendor environments has accelerated the need of critically evaluating the Application Portfolio and optimizing it.

Managing the Application Portfolio of IT assets and applications is a complex and continuous process which requires skills and specialist processes. At Eifer, we have developed a Structured Approach towards this important exercise and is derived from decades of work experience that Eifer's skilled workforce bring to the table.

Approach:

Existing Application environment is scanned for overlapping/missing functionality and also for applications/modules which are not sustainable profitably. The outcome of the process is an action plan specifying weather the applications should be Decommissioned, re-mediate re-platform, consolidate or enhance applications. Additionally, the process leaves behind a rigorous governance and portfolio management process as well as laying out the sourcing alternatives for the application portfolio. Key pillars in the approach are, Portfolio Management & Portfolio Consolidation.
