Rationalizes duplicate systems post-merger with cloud-based erwin EA Agile

Springer Nature, a leading global research, educational and professional publisher formed by a 2015 merger, faced many duplicate and overlapping applications and business capabilities that increased cost, complexity and operational inefficiency. To rationalize its application portfolio, the enterprise architecture team evaluated several tools and selected erwin’s SaaS enterprise architecture product, erwin Evolve by Quest.

Using erwin Evolve, Springer Nature established a centralized repository, aligned existing spreadsheets with a customized meta-model, and reused architecture assets to eliminate redundant systems and reduce costs. erwin’s flexible SaaS model and responsive support sped implementation, and the initiative delivered measurable results: eliminated redundancies, centralized the portfolio, proved the value of enterprise architecture, and achieved closer alignment of business and IT strategy.
