US Dept of Defense Agency Reduces Costs Through an Intellisys Led Government Application Modernization Initiative

The agency used EvolveWare’s Intellisys platform to transform a failing legacy system to Java/Hibernate.

 

EvolveWare’s solution was so cost-effective that the remaining amount of the original budget was applied to “dramatic improvements” in the system’s user interface

The Story

A U.S. Department of Defense agency’s critical recruitment management system had been compromised due to problems with keeping the application up and running. It had been installed on an old Windows operating system that was no longer being supported. In addition, little knowledge existed in the agency about the workings of the system, which had been developed over several years using third-party vendors. The combination of multiple legacy technologies along with lack of support personnel made the system complex and almost impossible to maintain and extend. Therefore, exploring government application modernization solutions was imperative.

Challenges

  • No subject matter experts available to maintain the application

 

  • Multiple legacy technologies and coding languages made the application complex and inconsistent in generating results

 

  • Methodologies used had been primarily manual, adding to the risk of modernizing the system 

Solution

Intellisys platform documentation and optimization & migration capabilities
