IT Tools and Solutions

There are hundreds of tools and solutions used in Application development and related service delivery. There are point tools that develop and manage specific artifacts such as requirements, UML models, test automation scripts, builds, etc. Then there are more specialized tools that focus on management of the processes around a particular discipline such as Requirements, Test or Service Management. In a highly competitive tools market, vendors pack their products with lots of features to a point they start to incorporate features from another product category. It is not uncommon for a PPM vendor lay claim to Software Change Management functionality and vice versa. Major overlaps in tool functionality, combined widespread availability of tools including open source and web-based (SaaS) tools, adds to the chaos. Large organizations often have multiple SCM, Defect Tracking, Build, Project Management and deployment tools acquired for a specific platform or a team – under well-intentioned but disconnected initiatives. Such organizations find it difficult to know where and how to start the tool rationalization and implement enterprise-wide process automation solutions.

Projile helps you separate 'wheat from chaf' and help you focus on key platforms and tools that will have major impact on your performance and conformance initiatives. We help you leverage your investments in tools and processes by helping you select the right process automation platform(s) – whether it is based on Application Lifecycle Management (ALM), IT Service Management (ITSM) or Project Portfolio/Enterprise Project (PPM/EPM) Management. Once a platform is selected, it is easier to integrate other IT tools and non-IT (ERP/HR) systems to get integrated view of your IT organization. We compliment your IT tools investments by leveraging leading technologies such as BPM, BRE, event-based/web-services based integration and BI and data warehousing.

The challenge often with IT process automation tools is not lthe lack of features or functionality but a correct implementation that utilizes the tool’s full capabilities. This is particularly true for organizations that acquire a particular tool a specific initiative/team or those that have not updated their tools since its original implementation. These organizations continue to underutilize the capabilities of the tools they already have and, as a result, never realize full return on investment (ROI) they had expected. Projile provides a range of services from complimentary tool Health Checks to development of full IT Process Automation Roadmap and help you maximize value from your tool investments.
