For decision-makers at banks, cost pressure is nothing new. The situation is being further intensified, however, by continuously low interest rates and the increase in regulatory requirements. Nevertheless, your task it to provide a flexible infrastructure and modern applications, which are to provide a foundation for the development of a modern business strategy. You can free up the necessary budgetary resources by cleaning up and simplifying your existing IT platform.

Cleaning up, saving and digitalising
Simplify to save
At many banks, our experts come across the following situation: In the past, financial firms built applications and infrastructure very quickly. Consistently removing components that were not used or barely used was of secondary importance. Banks are often operating complex IT platforms with numerous components that are not actually needed. These components serve only to generate ongoing costs and they result in additional work when implementing the latest compliance guidelines and maintenance requirements.
If you are in a similar situation, adesso offers you a proven approach to simplify your IT platform. Our experts eliminate or migrate superfluous and unsustainable components. Structured proofs of savings in your banking system round off the activities and ensure measurable and meaningful reports or results. In the end, you will work with a lean system with which you can implement strategic topics more easily and cost-effectively.
This is how we approach the issue
We have worked on a variety of similar projects, which has enabled us to develop an approach that involves working together with you to quickly and systematically identify the potential of your IT systems. To do this, we deploy a wide range of means to clean up the portfolio of applications, rationalise the infrastructure and optimise the sourcing strategies.
All of the pre-existing and new opportunities are specified and at the end of the process, they are evaluated using business cases from your specialist departments and IT team. A key element of the service we offer is the systematic way we follow through with and provide support for any measures that are defined. We round off our services in this area by providing structured evidence of the savings made in the banking system. You will receive quantifiable and informative results and reports, which will enable you to account for every last penny of the successful project:
Our approach:
- Using a cost-benefit analysis (heat map) to prioritise potential cost savings
- Simplifying and streamlining the IT platform
- Reducing ongoing costs
- Reducing the work required for maintenance and compliance
- Increasing the transparency of your IT platform
In this way, you can improve your starting point for embarking on other activities, such as pursuing digital transformation.
