Application Portfolio Strategy
How much you spend on IT is less important than what you spend it on. AAT helps you make those crucial decisions.
We can help you meet the dual challenge of reducing IT costs and using applications to add value to your business. AAT works with you to optimize your application portfolio by identifying cost reduction opportunities and investment priorities.
Instead of centering on implementation and technology, we help you define your IT goals in business language and align them with the prevailing business model. The most effective way for an IT organization to do this is to understand the business services of the organization.
Our service orientation and business service architecture focus helps provides the context and framework for transformative IT and organizational decisions. We thoroughly assess your application portfolio and develop a roadmap for achieving the IT mix that will best support your business goals.
