Enterprise Architecture

In today's information driven economy, IT strategy has vaulted to the forefront of critical issues faced by top management. Information technology's potential for value creation or destruction is enormous, and we understands this. AIT Enterprise Architecture services are the foundation of its philosophy of delivering real business results for its clients through the application of technology. The industrial-strength architectural solutions created by AIT's seasoned consultants adhere to three guiding principals:

• Business requirements driven
• Robust and adaptive
• Leveraging existing technology investments

Business requirements driven
An effective enterprise architecture strategy requires an understanding of business requirements and processes in addition to expertise in the relevant technologies. Thus the starting point for each project is a thorough understanding of business objectives, a process that is greatly helped and accelerated by AIT's existing industry-specific know-how.

Robust and adaptive
As IT becomes an ever more strategic factor for success in every industry, a secure and reliable IT environment becomes that much more critical. Yet, it is also clear from the ever-accelerating pace of change in today's competitive business world that any enterprise architecture must be able to adapt quickly to new business and technological realities. Ivory's extensive experience allows it to successfully resolve the inherent tension between robustness (security, reliability) and adaptability (openness, scalability, flexibility) of design in arriving at balanced enterprise architecture.

Leveraging existing technology investments
Coupling grand visions with untried (in the real world) technologies is a recipe for highly visible failed IT projects. Ivory takes the opposite tact with an incremental approach that is designed to minimize project risk and maximize project returns by leveraging existing technology investments. One of AIT's strong distinguishing characteristics is the unmatched expertise of its consultants in integrating backwards with legacy technology, including many mainframe-based applications

Improved scheduling involves the integration of process simulation and optimization, which has proven to be a highly effective technique to increase your business' revenues and/or decrease your business' costs. Process simulation offers your business "what-if" scenario capabilities and testing, which is an effective way to make virtual changes to your business policies without having to risk actual physical or procedural changes. AIT consultants can design and deliver a process simulation solution for your business that will give you the capability to identify policies or procedures that can improve your business operations. Optimization provides your business with the mathematically provable best solution to a complicated process involving many variables. AIT consultants can design and deliver an optimization solution for your business that will give you the competitive and operational advantages gained from optimal management of complex operations.

Efficiency Evaluation is a method of analyzing data that comes from individual operating units that are part of a bigger entity, such as one restaurant that is a part of a franchise, to determine which operating units are less efficient than the others. By increasing the efficiency of individual operating units, your business can achieve an improved bottom line. AIT can provide your business with the tools and services to identify inefficient operating units, specific areas and levels of inefficiency and a mechanism to easily re-evaluate inefficiencies over time

Quality Assurance

At AIT we believe that quality is a culture, expressed in the way we interact with, and cater to the needs of our customers, and in the products and processes that we deliver to them. So, while we have met several external quality parameters, we are even more stringent about setting and meeting our own exacting standards.

Software development for AIT is an engineering process, where scientifically proven methods are systematically applied to generate the best possible results in any given situation. A hands-on quality assurance function and a comprehensive internal audit system support the software development process at AIT. Telecommunications have always emphasized on IEEE standards and CMM for Pharmaceuticals and Tobacco industries. There has been growing emphasis on the adoption of organization-level processes and are intended to be applied repeatedly to all software engineering projects within an organization. Standards not only must be technically excellent on an individual basis, but each must take its place within a suite of standards that can be adopted in totality, or in part by organizations.
