Navigation and Integration – QAT WebDaptive is the development/runtime framework used for QAT Genesis. This automates the home page and the navigation of the application using any combination of top level menus, left-hand tree and tabs. This is also what enables the seamless integration of all the technologies described here as well as hand written pages.

Business Process – Agility BPM™ is a core part of the solution and will automate the workflow of the application and will effectively replace a high percentage of the application. The data collection steps and the decisions used to control the sequence and navigation of those steps will be automated by Agility BPM™ and these can be defined and managed by an analyst that fully understands the needs of the business.

Application Security – QAT Security is an application security component that is used to control the authorization of functionality within the business application. It is used to replace the sometimes hard coded or home grown security that exists within many legacy applications.

Modernization Results

The QAT Genesis modernization process results in applications that have not only been modernized in the traditional sense, but also made more open and agile at the same time. Business and IT are more aligned and far more productive as a team by allowing the business to control the work processes and IT to control the database and system integration.

The introduction of business process automation within the legacy modernization is a powerful solution that gives the business users new flexibility to enhance and change their application without relying on IT for everything. The modernized application suddenly becomes more flexible for the business and the cost of the projects are far easier to justify.
