Facts over gut feeling

Trisa

Assessment of the central integration platform

Trisa AG operates a central middleware that connects seven core systems, from ERP and production planning to logistics. Since the software in use no longer receives security updates, Trisa wanted to proactively determine whether the platform, which had grown over many years, was still the right solution for today's requirements. adesso conducted a structured assessment for this purpose, providing a reliable basis for the upcoming technology decision.

Challenge

  • The middleware solution in use serves as the central data hub at Trisa AG, connecting seven core systems: from ERP and production planning to the Manufacturing Execution System and logistics.
  • The solution has grown organically over the years. Over time, complexity and dependencies increased without an overarching, documented overview of the data flows.
  • The version in use no longer receives security updates. This created a clear need for action and raised the strategic question of whether the platform is still the right solution for today's requirements.
  • Rather than a quick recommendation, the goal was a well-founded, neutral assessment to serve as a reliable basis for an upcoming technology decision of major significance.

Benefits for the Client

  • Trisa receives a reliable basis for decision-making, enabling them to make the upcoming technology decision based on facts and clear criteria instead of gut feeling.
  • A consolidated, transparent picture of the current situation makes the central integration platform and its data flows visible and understandable as an entire system.
  • Concrete, evaluated options for action and a prioritized roadmap outline the path to sustainably better data quality – from short-term measures to strategic course-setting.
  • By clearly distinguishing between proven facts and assumptions that still need to be verified, Trisa gains planning security and avoids hasty, costly mistakes.

Solution

  • adesso conducted a structured assessment that combines document reviews, an in-depth technical analysis of the existing configuration, and collaborative workshops in a clearly phased approach.
  • In two joint workshops, the system map and pain points were developed directly with the team from Trisa – ensuring that technical expertise and operational practice were integrated into the analysis from the very beginning.
  • The results were categorized in an impact assessment based on frequency and business damage to objectively prioritize areas for action instead of relying on gut feeling.
  • A consistent principle guided the entire project: the clear separation of proven facts from assumptions to be verified.
