Case Study: Alvarez & Marsal achieves faster, lower-risk modernization planning with CAST Imaging

Alvarez & Marsal speeds discovery and documentation by 50% with CAST

Alvarez & Marsal, a global professional services firm, faced the challenge of modernizing a complex, mission-critical internal application built on legacy technologies. With outdated documentation and growing technical debt, the platform had become difficult to understand, hindering their efforts to stabilize it, improve governance, and create a foundation for future growth. They engaged vendor CAST and its CAST Imaging product to gain transparency into the application's architecture and data dependencies.

Using CAST's AI-generated blueprints and AI-assisted narrative, the team automatically discovered the application's architecture and data lineage. This solution provided an objective baseline to prioritize work, resulting in a 50% faster discovery and documentation process. With these insights, Alvarez & Marsal was able to align stakeholders, build a confident modernization roadmap, and significantly reduce delivery risk.
