Documentation & Analysis and Business Rules Extraction
Documentation and extraction of rules from 2.6MM lines of code written in COBOL, C, C#, and Java
The Story
The United States Air Force (USAF) Life Cycle Management Center was looking to do a comprehensive IT analysis of USAF legacy systems in order to determine whether the Oracle E-Business Suite (EBS) Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system would be a good fit for these applications. Diligent Consulting presented them with their “Evolution” solution as a means to identify the deltas between USAF legacy systems and the Oracle EBS ERP and provide recommendations on how to best implement the functionality within EBS. Deliverables for this public sector application rationalization project also included a technical roadmap for potential Government consolidation of functionality into or severability of functionality from the existing/planned programs. The “Evolution” solution hinged on Intellisys as a key tool to help them extract the systems meta-data and provide artifacts for analysis.
Challenges
Large number of complex set of systems that needed to be quickly understood and analyzed
Needed a detailed understanding of rules contained within the systems to determine which ones to get rid of, which ones were duplicated across systems, and which ones could be implemented within the EBS
