Agile Development Brings Benefits in Tough Financial Times
Agile software development has become a mainstream practice that can reduce cost and accelerate revenue compared to traditional phased development methods. When the economy is in turmoil and budgets are shrinking, Agile can help an organization get more for every dollar of development spending. Experienced Agile teams are more productive than traditional development teams, resulting in more efficient use of people, the most expensive element of software development. An Agile Enterprise can gain significant competitive advantage by getting products to market sooner. All of these advantages can be explained in terms of Agile principles and practices. Experienced Agile Coaches can help ensure success when implementing Agile.

Application Management

At the core of CIBER's Application Management service offering is a proven approach for rapidly assuming responsibility for client operations and providing on-going performance-based application support that is focused on quality, process, accountability and results. Each outsourcing engagement is governed by a service contract that is the combination of a Statement of Work, which defines the scope of the service, and a Service Level Agreement, which defines the objective measure of CIBER's service performance commitments.

To facilitate the discovery, knowledge transfer and responsibility transfer processes required for a successful outsourcing engagement, CIBER categorizes service activities into three tiers:

Tier 1 - Application Specific Help Desk: This service includes operation of an application specific help desk dedicated to supporting end users and IT needs during the core business hours of the client.

Tier 2 - Production Support: This service may include 24x7x365 production support, depending upon client requirements. Focus is on identifying and fixing system faults quickly or crafting workarounds enabling Tier 3 support personnel to perform root cause analysis and fix the problem permanently.

Tier 3 - Routine Maintenance: This service includes major and minor enhancements and routine maintenance, including backlog management, root cause analysis, and corrective, adaptive or perfective maintenance, as appropriate.

Our accelerated transition process, from planning to full operation to transition back to the client at the end of the engagement, enables meaningful results to be delivered quickly.


Highmark, Inc.

One of the nation's leading health insurers and largest Blue plans, turned to CIBER for application outsourcing for its mission-critical legacy claims processing and membership applications. “For over ten years, Highmark has relied on CIBER as a partner to enable us to realign our IT resources to support strategic projects. We know CIBER has the outsourcing expertise to manage our mission critical applications while we work toward system consolidation,” said Tom Tabor, Chief Information Officer at Highmark.

CIBER is providing outsourced support of Highmark’s legacy membership system and is responsible for production software maintenance and feature/function enhancement projects for HighMark’s current membership application. CIBER’s outsourced support of Highmark’s Comp 4 claims processing system began in 1996. CIBER has implemented more than 200 enhancements, including reengineering Comp 4’s job control language to streamline and accelerate the system, which reduced claim processing cycle time by 50 percent - from 12 hours down to six. This enabled the system to double the number of processed claims. Additional enhancements have also resulted in a higher level of online system availability that today exceeds 98 percent.
