Software Quality:
case studies

In the fast-paced Telecom sector, the demand for innovation drives development teams to prioritize new functionality over software quality – accruing “technical debt” in the form of ever-increasing maintenance costs, sluggish time to market, unpredictable future release delays and vendor lock-ins.
As 5G adoption grows, Telecom providers will face new challenges in increasing the security of core network components, onboarding new technologies, and realizing Software Defined Networking (SDN) possibilities.
Our teams help some of the largest Telecom companies in the world gain control over software quality – without impeding the pace of functional developments – to boost development productivity, modernize core legacy systems, assure network security & privacy, and ensure value for spend on supplier output.
Netcompany-Intrasoft, an established European IT Solutions and Services Group, faced challenges in achieving shared visibility into its IT landscape and business processes. With a complex network of systems and applications across different business units, obtaining a holistic view of their entire IT environment was time-consuming and challenging. Additionally, the company aimed to improve the management of its IT operational investments and costs, while consolidating operations on common systems. Netcompany-Intrasoft implemented code4thought’s Enterprise Architecture Mapping service, enabling them to gain real-time visibility and a single source of truth for their IT landscape and business processes.
A leading tech company wanted to assess if their multi-vendor developed, public-facing system was built according to secure coding best practices and also wanted to ensure early-vulnerability-detection in order to minimize remediation costs.
To address these concerns, they partnered with C4T/SIG to implement a comprehensive application security monitoring program. Our approach demonstrates the value of proactive security monitoring in achieving “security by design” principles and safeguarding critical applications.
More and more firms are looking to gain digital capabilities through acquisitions. But to capitalize on the benefits of any digital prowess, investors must be able to identify the hidden risks and opportunities that lie within. When you invest in a company, you invest in the software that runs it.
Our team objectively measures, analyzes and (in certain cases) monitors each line of code against quality models to predict the current stability and future performance of your software assets, helping you to drive value in every stage of the transaction lifecycle.
As financial institutions increasingly become IT companies, demand is rising for new software assurance capabilities. This digital disruption presents the industry with both its biggest challenge and best opportunity.
