Client profile
A government organisation providing law and order services, our client used custom software to prepare and track cases for court. The client’s major business need was to enhance functionality by the overhaul of old software and to make it available for use within a more current technology platform.
The challenge
Our client’s software was dated and run on old technology; the major challenge for the Ajilon team was to tackle the lack of know-how with the outmoded programming environment. In addition, the software had never been deployed independently before. Ajilon was chosen to build a more workable and robust system and implement it for use on the organisation’s server.
The Ajilon approach
The Ajilon team approached this challenge by firstly reconciling the codes presented by the old technology, so the organisation could move towards modernising the software and improving its functionality.
- We addressed the gaps in knowledge that currently existed; our aim was to ensure this situation did not present itself again in the future.
- We introduced some governance and structure around the construction of the client’s server.
- We addressed potential security and business continuity issues by documenting the new system’s architecture and operational procedures.
How did Ajilon deliver a robust technology platform?
At all times, the Ajilon team worked closely with the client to ensure their operational and overall business needs were met. After thorough testing, we delivered a technology environment that greatly improved the supportability of software and applications – this has provided our client with a sound foundation that allows for future enhancements.
