IT SOLUTIONS
APPLICATION MANAGEMENT
Like any other asset, your business applications need good maintenance in order to perform properly; something which is little understood, with most organisations employing a “fix on fail” approach, only fixing explicit functional errors as they appear.
Brennan not only offers an Application Management solution that ensures your applications will function correctly and perform optimally, we couple this with regular, application maintenance to ensure they last longer.
Without this level of attention, a business operates with significant hidden risk.
To mitigate that risk, Brennan conducts a full annual maintenance plan for a single application or an entire portfolio, to determine how easy the software is to maintain.
We quantify this as a “maintainability index”; where the index is satisfactory, regular maintenance will be used to sustain the application. Where the index is too low, specific issues will be addressed through a remediation program, which typically entails application relearning, documentation and application modernisation.
Brennan undertakes 4 categories of regular maintenance:
If needed, additional utilities are developed to ensure data integrity; in severe cases, Brennan replaces portions of code with modernised, simplified equivalents. In either case, Brennan removes the operational risk for your applications, focusing on their performance so that you can focus on the performance of your business.
