  • providing development integration capacity centered on architectural services and core competencies of clients’ systems. This structure is best suited to optimize cost and to provide scalable capacity to support varying degrees of customer volume
  • developing and conducting training for client in-house specialists to ensure high-level support of the performed integration and further self-integration
  • reinforcing tailor-made training with an instruction manual developed for the individual client’s architectural specifics

Application Management

With technology resources at a premium, clients need efficient and reliable means for managing "legacy" systems, saving their own resources for system development and maintenance. Companies are forced to innovate and accelerate the roll out of new systems and technologies without sacrificing application maintenance and enhancement. Our management service can help clients address the need to balance cost, complexity, and capacity for all the areas of the application life cycle, be it development, enhancement, maintenance, or support for a comprehensive range of application areas. We can take care of this problem by devoting the time and effort at the right cost to unlock the legacy value. Often our clients experience improved performance and knowledge of their legacy platforms as a result of our managed service.

Reengineering and Performance Management

Teknavo combines the knowledge of the client's business system processes with our strong reengineering, architectural, and software engineering skills to extend the life and value of legacy platforms.

Teknavo can reengineer all the architectural layers of your legacy systems including presentation layers, business logic, databases, and data. Teknavo Re-engineering services include:

  • database reengineering/migration
  • language migration
  • operating systems migration
  • code restructuring
  • performance optimization
  • document generation
  • extraction/mining of business rules

Teknavo can reengineer legacy systems into reusable components, wrapping those components under standard architectures that can be easily integrated with Web technologies. Our services enable existing IT applications and products to leverage the latest technologies to enhance business functionality and performance. Solutions include migration services, extending service, and vendor application maintenance.

Vendor Application Maintenance

Often our clients are burdened with hiring high priced consultants to maintain vendor platforms and associated interfaces. We partner to build a dedicated vendor support team that is trained on the vendor platform. This service breaks the dependency on high priced resources for maintaining vendor platforms while enhancing the value and knowledge of the platform to the client. Our focus is to reduce the cost of the platform while increasing the value.

Our strong technical and software engineering background makes it easy for us to deploy teams that can quickly master vendor platforms.

Architecture Review and Strategy

We combine the knowledge of the client's business systems and processes with our strong architectural and software engineering skills to offer assistance with architecture decisions, strategy, and planning. The speed of change in the technology industry puts our clients at a disadvantage in trying to maintain a prudent and effective architecture plan and strategy.

Our strategy services include business and technical architecture and portfolio analysis (analysis and rationalization, restructuring and partitioning, roadmap definition).

Our extensive experience in software development allows us to offer a premier architecture and planning service for
