Celent Webinar: The 5 Do's and 5 Don'ts of Avoiding Instant Legacy
Join Celent senior analyst Craig Beattie as he presents five “legacy makers,” behaviours that increase the likelihood of creating new legacy.
Historically the insurance industry has had mixed success at future-proofing. One might say the industry has been good at future-proofing with many insurers running systems that are multiple decades old that are still “good.” On the other hand, participants in the industry are facing increasing technology change and are challenged with where and how to invest.
Sometimes the symptoms of legacy are hard to spot, Celent advises insurers to look for activity that is missing:
- The business units no longer requesting change.
- The systems no longer seeing change activity.
- The alternative routes to change that don’t exist.
- The software products that see no upgrades.
Ultimately future-proofing is about preparing the insurer for an uncertain future. The future will bring new requirements for change; join Craig as he discusses the do’s and don’ts for navigating through instant legacy. This webinar is based on the recently published report Future Proofing Your IT Investments: Lessons from the Industry.
