Enterprise Software Ecosystem Audit and Diagnosis

For the past 17 years, we have successfully delivered hundreds of projects for Romanian and international clients. Throughout these years, we have developed a unique strategy for maximizing our work and helping our clients reach their full potential. 

We offer more than custom software solutions—we look at our projects holistically and offer our clients the means to succeed and take their businesses to the next level through Enterprise Software Ecosystem Audit and Diagnosis.

What is Enterprise Software
Ecosystem Audit and Diagnosis?

It is often the case that, over time, enterprise-level businesses will develop large software ecosystems consisting of numerous components. These components can vary significantly in technology, age, support availability, etc. It can go as far as for some of them to become “black boxes” that nobody dares to touch anymore.

The prerequisite for any attempt to modernize such an ecosystem is to have a good understanding of the current state of affairs from several different perspectives.

Through Enterprise Software Ecosystem Audit and Diagnosis, we help our clients get a good understanding of their current systems, allowing them to define clear objectives, develop competencies, and plan relevant actions that will allow them to undergo a digital transformation process that will maximize their success. 

The digital transformation of complex business processes must do much more than a 1 to 1 translation of traditional processes. Otherwise, many of the advantages of using digital technologies are lost. 

Many of our projects helped clients transition from ‘traditional’ or primitively digitized work systems to fully digitized ones. Often, these systems contained several components that interact with each other in a way that allowed optimized (and often automated) modeling of workflows. By working on this type of project, we gained an excellent ability to analyze business flows and model them in a digital approach.

A significant part of the audit is represented by the identification of risks across several dimensions (use of old/unsupported tech stack, end of life for certain components, resource scarcity, etc.) and quantifying the cost and impact of possible actions. Determining the cost of not taking action is also of great importance.

Digital Transformation—a holistic approach

The digital transformation process can be compared to constructing a pyramid based on three key elements: people, technology, and processes. If ignored or excessively exploited to the detriment of others, any of the elements can cause the collapse of the entire pyramid. 

A coherent digital transformation strategy must take into account each of the three key elements concerning all the main actors (public administration, industry, and citizens) but also with all facets of digital transformation:

  • Transformation of business processes; 
  • Transformation of business models business; 
  • Transformation of business domains; 
  • Cultural/organizational change.

We thus obtain several strategic pillars to be addressed. To maximize their success, companies need to use specific tactics that consider all the facets of digital transformation.

Areas of expertise

During the first stages of a new collaboration, we start by understanding the client’s needs and assessing their technological and infrastructural position. We perform high-level radiography that aims to identify potential risks and opportunities. 

During this phase, we: 

  • Identify all the elements of the ecosystem (applications, solutions, integrations); 
  • We map out everything that relates to technology; 
  • Identify the technologies and frameworks used; 
  • Asses the hardware infrastructure;

Once we understand the client’s needs, we are ready to move to the next stage—creating a plan for the company’s digital transformation journey. Every successful project requires thorough planning, so we take time to define the steps to help us achieve our objectives. 

In this phase we: 

  • Identify hidden development opportunities within the organization (new products, business lines, automation potential, etc.); 
  • Identify potential risks related to maintenance, cybersecurity, or non-functional requirements; 
  • Create a list of potential tactics and objectives, and then prioritize them with the help of stakeholders; 
  • Define a digital transformation strategy (new products, integrations, eliminating outdated solutions).

A digital transformation strategy can only be successfully executed when supported by all the actors involved and when they can easily find their place in the whole transformation. We work closely with our clients to develop the necessary skills to help them achieve the set objectives. 

Our services include: 

  • Skills development (DevOps, Product ownership); 
  • Training for developers: We can help clients with workshops and training that help their developers change their work style and gain new skills. Also, our training ensures that the company’s internal team will be prepared to be part of this journey; 
  • Coaching on the job; 
  • Enterprise architecture: we identify the missing skills in the client’s organization and come up with a coaching plan.

In the final stage of the Enterprise Software Ecosystem Audit and Diagnosis process, all the actors involved have the motivation and the necessary capabilities to be an integral part of the digital transformation process. 

During this step, we provide our clients with a custom software solution that responds to their specific needs and can help them maximize their results.
