Our Smart IT Modernization offering: comprehensive or modular support to turn your digital challenges into drivers of performance

Our approach aims to identify all your modernization challenges—whether they involve unstable applications, siloed data, or overly rigid infrastructure—and address them with targeted solutions.

Applications

Modernize your development platform and source code to gain agility and competitiveness by industrializing their evolution.

Outdated, unreliable and vulnerable applications that are difficult to upgrade hinder your ability to innovate and respond to business needs in real time and cost-effectively.

Application audit to identify modernization opportunities
Design of a modern software architecture
Streamline development and testing through a software
forge and AI-powered processes
Continuous maintenance and improvement

Data

Remove silos and unlock the strategic value of your data, turning it into a valuable decision-making tool and innovative asset.

Scattered, siloed data that is difficult to use limits informed decision-making.

Data mapping and silo identification
Design of a modern Data Platform architecture (cloud, lakehouse)
Implementation of data governance ensuring quality and security
Integration of AI tools to exploit data in real time

AI Solutions

Make AI operational and scalable whithin IT and business processes in order to automate your activities, drive innovation and generate concrete, measurable value.

Scaling AI poses challenges, use cases are poorly identified, users find it difficult to trust or adopt AI, and deployment costs remain high.

Identification of high-potential AI use cases
Implementation of AI governance
Deployment of an AI technical foundation
Team acculturation and training
Deployment of use cases
Operation and maintenance of AI solutions

Infrastructure

Implement a secure, scalable, high-performance infrastructure to support your digital transformation.

Outdated and costly infrastructure, insufficiently automated, prevents the exploitation of opportunities offered by the cloud, AI and DevOps.

Definition and analysis of needs
Design of the target architecture and operational model
Migration, testing and validation of the solution
Operations automation
Observability and continuous improvement

Governance & Human Factors

Promote the adoption of new technologies and productivity gains
with structured change management that encourages long-term team commitment.

Resistance to change, lack of cohesion within teams and disengagement can hinder a company’s organisational and technological transitions and compromise its modernization projects.

Identify barriers and assess the impact of change
Define a roadmap (communication, training, KPIs)
Clarify roles and responsibilities of stakeholders
Deploy change management actions (onboarding, resistance management)
Acculturate teams to new methods and tools
Leverage AI tools to facilitate adoption and management of change
Measure adoption through KPIs and adjust actions
Share knowledge and celebrate successes

Our Success Stories

RETAIL
Application Modernization

A major retail player needed to overhaul its outdated product recall management application, burdened by technical debt, to create a secure, scalable, and cost-effective platform.

ALTEN setup the platform (GCP) and leveraged AI
to document specifications, analyze dependencies,
modernize the code and migrate the data securely and compliantly.

Result: A high-performance, scalable cloud platform with controlled costs.

AUTOMOTIVE
Code & Architecture Review

An automotive manufacturer faced major
malfunctions in its logistics planning portal,
which centralizes data and optimizes transport
between sites.

ALTEN conducted a code and architecture audit,
identified vulnerabilities, and took over development to implement best practices.

Result: A stabilized platform, a clear roadmap,
and restored confidence within the development
teams through controlled delivery.

PHARMACEUTICAL
Data Factory Creation

A pharmaceutical company needed to industrialize its data governance to become data-driven, facing growing business needs and a lack of standardization.

ALTEN deployed a Data Factory (GCP/Microsoft
Fabrics) with agile Feature Teams (40 experts)
to automate use cases.

Result: Reduced time-to-market and fewer failures
in clinical trials.

AERONAUTICS
AI Industrialization for Software Development

A technology leader wanted to streamline its
development cycle with AI to boost productivity
but lacked processes and training.

ALTEN mapped 20 AI use cases, trained teams,
and implemented KPIs to measure impact.

Result: 17% productivity gain, successful adoption,
and autonomous teams.
