Solution Implementation and Deployment

ISM has developed and delivered a unique and proven modernization process that includes parsers, tools, repeatable processes, and a comprehensive methodology (full SDLC). ISM provides an independent consultative approach to planning and managing the modernization process.

ISM is committed to using automation to perform modernization efforts. Automation allows for repeatability while at the same time producing high quality uniform code. Having proven, automated, repeatable modernization processes reduces the risk, the cost, and the effort to successfully complete a modernization initiative.

As one of the first steps in the implementation process, ISM has integrated some of the leading modernization technology partner tools into our proven modernization processes and methodology to deliver an automated application analysis. ISM's Automated Application Analysis and Documentation solution provides a detailed and accurate inventory of the legacy application and a complete analysis of the individual components.

ISM's Automated Application Analysis and Documentation deliverables include:

• A complete inventory of the legacy application
• Analysis of the inter-relationships between the elements of the application
• Analysis of the complexity of each individual module
• Reports to provide an understanding of the application and modules
• Diagrams to provide an understanding of the boundaries and interactions of the application
• Statistics such as size, lines of code, and frequency of certain characteristics
• High level descriptions of functions for use as requirements for a rewrite
• Extraction of the business rules and business functionality
• Identification of dead and redundant code
• An analysis of the areas of the applications that may require special consideration

ISM applies the knowledge that comes from many years of providing automated solutions to present essential information required to assist in the application modernization effort that may include code transformation, a manual rewrite, SOA enablement, or other options chosen by the client. And we are continually updating our portfolio of languages, databases, supported platforms, and partners, ensuring that ISM can comprehensively and completely address your modernization needs.

ISM's modernization process is a proven end-to-end life cycle solution -- from planning to requirements, to design, to build, to test, to deployment, and finally to post-deployment mentoring. Each unique solution uses the appropriate phases in an iterative fashion in pursuit of a timely and successful modernization effort.

Between the combination of ISM's experienced modernization consultants and our technology partners we can plan, manage, execute and successfully deliver your modernization effort.
