The transformation of legacy systems is not just a technical challenge for insurers—it is a comprehensive change on multiple levels. Successful transformation does not only affect systems, but also people and organizations.
As an experienced partner in the insurance sector, jambit supports companies in implementing this transformation in a structured and sustainable way. The focus lies on IT architecture and agile software development.
Implementing Transformation in a Structured Way
Modernizing complex IT landscapes requires a holistic approach. This includes:
- IT architecture consulting
- Planning and managing the transformation process
- Secure replacement of legacy systems without disrupting ongoing operations
- Decomposition of systems into microservices
- Cloud projects, including security considerations
- Implementation of modern delivery models (CI/CD)
- Agile methods such as Scrum, Kanban, or Nexus
- Development of customer portals and API platforms
- Establishment of modern design systems
The goal is to create flexible, scalable, and future-proof IT systems that enable rapid innovation.
The Underrated Success Factor: Culture
As important as technology is, transformation rarely fails because of it. More often, cultural factors present the greatest challenge. Employees need to be convinced and actively involved.
There is often skepticism toward replacing systems that have worked reliably for decades. Uncertainty increases, especially when individual expertise or roles are affected.
This is why it is essential to actively support the change process. Agile culture coaches and experienced developers help establish new ways of working within the organization. Ideally, knowledge transfer happens directly within projects—hands-on rather than through purely theoretical training.
Transformation as an Investment in the Future
The coming years will be characterized by significant investments in IT transformation—amounting to billions across the industry. This makes it all the more important to execute these strategic initiatives with an experienced and reliable partner.
Ultimately, the ability to transform will determine whether insurers can maintain or expand their market position.
