Case Study: American Appraisal reduces IT costs and modernizes infrastructure with Concurrency

American Appraisal cuts IT staffing costs 65% with Concurrency

American Appraisal, a provider of valuation and advisory services, faced significant challenges with its aging IBM legacy systems and a lack of strategic IT direction. The company engaged Concurrency, Inc. to help modernize its infrastructure and redefine the role of IT within the organization, aiming to increase stability and transform IT into a strategic asset.

Concurrency first conducted a Core Infrastructure Optimization assessment to create a strategic roadmap. This led to a multi-phase project where Concurrency implemented a modern Microsoft platform, including moving users to an internal cloud and Office 365 and re-platforming key applications on Microsoft Azure. As a result, American Appraisal reduced its IT staffing expenditures by 65%, achieved significant software licensing savings, and greatly improved operational accuracy and global support capabilities.
