CIS-APM Application Portfolio Management


Business applications serve as the bridge between critical business capabilities and the underlying technologies that constitute the bulk of IT expenditure. Today, disruption and digital transformation are pushing organizations to make faster decisions about technology investments, even when they have limited visibility and poor business alignment. This increases risk for the business.


In most organizations, mergers and acquisitions, organizational changes, shadow IT, and other factors lead to the proliferation of applications with minimal centralized control. The result is waste due to duplication, increased risk around licensing or version control, and a lack of oversight for strategic changes, such as migrating resources to the cloud
