Why Lean?

Integration Done Faster, Better, and at Lower Cost

Lean Integration represents a next phase of data integration maturity. It builds on the Integration Competency Center model with a factory-like approach engineered to optimize performance on the critical dimensions of cost, speed, and quality. Lean Integration has been shown to generate:

• Up to 90 percent reduction in project lead time
• A 50 percent gain in integration team productivity
• Significant and continuous improvements in project quality

With Lean Integration, your organization can continue its evolution toward the ideal of becoming an agile, data-driven enterprise.

• Agility for the business. Lean methods promote innovation and agility by liberating staff from tedious and repetitive tasks.
• Decreased risk for senior IT executives. Lean management strengthens IT governance and control by lessening complexity and promoting visibility.
• Lower cost for IT developers and managers. Lean Integration reduces cost and inefficiency by standardizing automation and reuse of integration processes.
