BluePhoenix Solutions Awarded $1 Million IT Modernization Contract by a US Insurance Group

Posted by article at 4:13 PM
BluePhoenix Solutions (NASDAQ: BPHX), the leader in value-driven legacy IT modernization, was awarded an IDMS migration contract by a tier one Insurance Group based in the US, valued at more than $1 million.

The customer selected BluePhoenix to modernize its IDMS based application to an IBM DB2 environment on System z. The main business drivers for the modernization were:

* Lack of IDMS trained resources made it difficult to maintain functionality and, more importantly, the IDMS platform had become an impediment to new development.
* The desire to eliminate the high IDMS maintenance cost.

By modernizing the application to IBM DB2 on System z, the customer will be able to deliver new application features to users more quickly and respond to changing business requirements more effectively.

The Customer has always had a responsive, technically advanced team, and their decision to strategically address issues of costly, legacy technologies allows them to maintain this edge. BluePhoenix was chosen after a thorough, comprehensive evaluation of a large number of migration vendors and major system integrators.

“We are pleased to help our customers to reduce their IT costs from IDMS and also have more flexibility in developing and enhancing their application,” said Greg Schottland, General Manager, Legacy Modernization Division of BluePhoenix Solutions. “Their dependence on aging technologies will be eliminated.”

“We are glad the customer and BluePhoenix selected DB2 and IBM System z, the premier platform for modernizing legacy assets and creating an agile, dynamic, and cost effective enterprise architecture while providing the highest possible level of service”, said Gregory Shomstein, Enterprise Modernization Executive of IBM System z.
