Case Study: American Appraisal Reduces IT Costs and Modernizes Infrastructure with Concurrency

American Appraisal Redefines IT Philosophy, Replaces Legacy Systems, Reduces IT Costs

American Appraisal, a professional services firm, needed to modernize its IT environment and move beyond legacy IBM systems to create a more strategic, efficient foundation for the business. Concurrency, Inc. worked with the company on a Core Infrastructure Optimization assessment to identify infrastructure, security, application, and platform gaps, while helping define a roadmap for a more modern Microsoft-based environment.

Concurrency, Inc. implemented a phased transformation that replaced legacy systems, standardized on current Microsoft platforms, and improved global support and communications. The results included a 65% reduction in IT staffing expenditures, lower software licensing and maintenance costs, centralized visibility for global infrastructure, and a move toward a service-oriented IT model, with phase two extending benefits through internal cloud and Office 365 adoption.
