MW2 helps customers to create a more flexible IT infrastructure to respond faster to changing business demands.

Customers benefit from a highly sophisticated management approach to ensure that IT processes and systems become more reliable while at the same time significantly reduce maintenance and support costs.

At MW2 we see the emergence of three key themes that directly impact financial institutions and their ability to improve operational performance:

Improved Business Process and Business Transactions Management
The MW2 Business Service Management (BSM) framework and delivery capabilities enable organizations to:

• Provide end-to-end visibility - from business processes to the supporting IT infrastructure.  
• Align IT investments with business needs. 
• Proactively manage critical applications i.e. online banking, wire transfer, and trading.
• Quickly resolve issues and reduce customer impact and SLA breaches.
• Reduce operational costs through process automation.

SOA Enablement
The ability to quickly deploy new applications that leverage mainframe data is driving the need to adopt web services and SOA within financial institutions. MW2 is a market leader in SOA strategies and SOA implementation and has supported large financial institutions:

• Securely expose mainframe data using web services.  
• Create composite applications to address different customer needs.
• Implement SOA governance solutions to improve the management of web services and composite applications.
• Implement solutions to track transactions and provide deep root cause diagnostics into mainframe environments.

Application and performance testing
Competition, regulation, and changing needs of customers have significantly increased the frequency with which financial institutions have to deploy and improve their systems. As a result, business owners have to choose between a well tested application and a fast software development cycle.

MW2’s ability to leverage automated testing tools enables customers to  deploy high-quality applications faster, at reduced cost and with minimal risk.
