Scope of service: What’s included in application landscape assessment?

FAQ

What is the application landscape assessment service?

Application landscape assessment is a comprehensive analysis of your entire application estate. It produces a complete inventory with technical profiles, business capabilities, and dependency mapping – enabling organizations to understand their current state, define a target architecture, and build informed roadmaps for strategic transformation.

Why should you assess your applications now?

Without visibility, decisions are based on incomplete information. The application landscape assessment reveals hidden complexity (e.g. duplicate systems, outdated components, and hidden dependencies) that impact every initiative. You can find the factual foundation needed to define a target state, prioritize actions, and align them with your business strategy.

What deliverables do you receive?

You’ll receive a current application of estate view, dependency maps showing how systems connect, and an analysis of modernization or consolidation opportunities. The output is a roadmap that prioritizes each application based on your strategy, helping you decide which to keep, modernize, or retire.

How does the assessment reduce risk?

The assessment surfaces single points of failure, hidden integration risks, and business-impact dependencies that could derail initiatives. This enables proactive risk mitigation rather than reactive problem-solving during execution.

Can it help identify replacement opportunities?

Yes. The assessment evaluates each application's technical state, provided business capabilities, and operational footprint to identify where standard industry solutions or platform capabilities could replace custom applications. This reveals consolidation potential across the entire estate, not just in isolated projects.

Which cloud platforms does it support?

The assessment is platform-agnostic.  It evaluates applications for any strategic direction, including cloud adoptions to T Cloud, AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud, platform strategy shifts, or on-premises modernization. The output is a target state and roadmap tailored to your chosen platform or hybrid approach.
