HP enables clients to drive business growth

href="http://dqchannels.ciol.com/content/reselleralert/110051805.asp">HP
has announced new initiatives to
help clients create a self-funded journey that transforms their
applications portfolios. The initiatives include a client
modernization experience and options for financing their technology
infrastructure transformation.

HP has the tools and expertise to help
organizations determine the best approach for upgrading legacy
systems by identifying exactly which applications do not support
business priorities. By applying HP's innovative approach based on
the analysis of hundreds of client engagements, clients can improve
business performance while reducing application and infrastructure
costs.

“Clients are struggling to shift
technology spending away from operations to further drive innovation
and grow their business,” said Kallol Hazra, Director-Application
Services, Enterprise Services, HP India “Leveraging HP's
expertise and technology portfolio, we help clients create a
customized modernization roadmap and determine self-funding options
to break through the 'innovation gridlock,” explained Hazra.

HP is currently offering clients an
Application Modernization Transformation Experience. Built on more
than 40 years of managing and modernizing client applications as well
as infrastructure, the HP Applications Modernization Transformation
Experience demonstrates HP's approach and summarizes the results HP
has achieved for other clients. This interactive experience shows how
other organizations have approached similar modernization challenges,
highlighting what proven solutions and architectures are currently
available.

As a result, clients can identify
self-funding options, as well as realize the scope, scale and
critical success factors necessary for their own transformations.
Specifically, clients can quickly identify wins that generate
momentum, help create stakeholder buy in, locate projects to free up
funds, and lay out the next steps for their own journey.

A modernized applications portfolio
will enable organizations to:

- Increase responsiveness to
business priorities and changing customer demands by eliminating the
complexity inherent to legacy systems and server sprawl.

- Improve productivity for
employees and reduce maintenance costs by streamlining complex,
legacy systems to more modern and efficient technologies.

- Achieve faster speed to market
with modernized infrastructure and applications.

- Self-fund the modernization
journey with projects, such as retiring old applications, and
reducing the overall expense of maintaining over-provisioned older
systems.

Additionally, the experience enables
clients to explore different ways to fund the modernization journey.
For example, HP Modernization Funding Options provide clients with
access to capital based on the value of existing systems, which helps
them to fund investments in new technology. The program enables
clients transitioning to new environments to free up investment
dollars and reallocate them to more strategic initiatives.

The experience is a part of the HP
Applications Modernization Services portfolio, which includes
applications assessments, transformation and management to help
clients achieve the full value of their modernized environment. The
solutions are available for clients across all industries, including
government, manufacturing and financial services.
