What You'll Gain from Our AI-Driven Approach

Up to 50% less operational cost. In year one.

Automation of repetitive processes and AI driven monitoring help organizations reduce operational overhead across support and maintenance activities. Reported outcomes typically show 30 to 50 percent cost reduction by streamlining routine operations, reporting, and system management.

40% Faster Problem Resolution

AI assistants and predictive diagnostics reduce time spent identifying and resolving operational issues. Enterprises commonly achieve 30 to 40 percent faster turnaround across support and troubleshooting workflows, helping minimize downtime and service disruption.

40% Higher
in Team Productivity

With AI handling routine fixes and operational tasks, teams can focus on modernization and delivery initiatives. Implementations frequently demonstrate 25 to 40 percent improvement in team productivity, allowing IT resources to shift from maintenance toward innovation.

25% Improved compliance lift

AI powered monitoring and automated validation strengthen governance across system activity and reporting processes. Organizations typically experience 10 to 25 percent efficiency improvement in compliance tracking and risk management operations.

Frequently Asked Questions

Legacy IBM i systems still run core business processes, but skills gaps, integration demands, and maintenance costs are rising. AI-driven modernization helps teams understand complex RPG estates faster, reduce operational risk, and unlock new interfaces and automations without a disruptive rip-and-replace.
We start with system understanding in a controlled environment, then apply AI for documentation, transformation planning, integration, and support. Changes are phased and validated against production outputs so business logic remains trustworthy throughout the journey.
AI can flag patterns associated with disk latency, batch overruns, memory pressure, job queue buildup, integration timeouts, and abnormal transaction volumes—often before users report issues—so teams can act proactively.
Not necessarily. Many predictive insights can be layered on existing IBM i environments by collecting operational, performance, and job log data into analytics or AIOps platforms without replacing core hardware.
Typical inputs include historical job logs, system performance metrics, application error patterns, batch schedules, and integration telemetry. The exact dataset depends on your monitoring tools and modernization scope.
Teams often combine Splunk Observability, watsonx AIOps, custom ML pipelines, and IBM i operational data stores. For code-centric modernization, watsonx Code Assistant for i and GitHub Copilot accelerate analysis and transformation tasks.
GenAI can accelerate code analysis, documentation, and draft modernization of RPG modules, but human experts must validate outputs against business rules and production behavior. We use AI to speed delivery while keeping accuracy and compliance in focus.
IBM watsonx Code Assistant for i is designed to help developers understand, document, and modernize RPG and IBM i assets with AI guidance grounded in legacy language context—making it a practical accelerator in structured modernization programs.
