At Integrative Systems, we help you modernize these areas while preserving the business logic your operations rely on.

The approach can include -

+ Codebase - Improve RPG readability, documentation, and maintainability
+ Database - Modernize DDS structures with SQL and expand data accessibility
+ User experience - Extend green-screen applications with modern web interfaces
+ Integration - Connect IBM i with APIs, cloud platforms, and analytics tools
+ Infrastructure - Strengthen monitoring, recovery, and deployment practices
+ AI adoption - Apply AI to code analysis, documentation, and development workflows

The priority is to identify the right opportunities for your environment and build a modernization roadmap around your business goals.

Modernize what matters. Build on what works. Prepare your IBM i environment for what’s next.

Our latest blog explores the tools and approaches we rely on to help you modernize your IBM i environment across applications, data, user experience, and infrastructure.

Your business decisions are only as connected as the data behind them.

Sales, finance, inventory, and operations each hold a piece of the business picture. Power BI integration brings these data sources together, helping teams build a more connected view of performance.

At Integrative Systems, we align data integration with your reporting needs, existing systems, and business priorities.

This includes -

+ Data connectivity across ERP, CRM, databases, and cloud platforms
+ Performance optimization for efficient data refresh and reporting
+ Data transformation for consistent, reliable reporting
+ API integration to connect applications and systems
+ Unified dashboards for cross-functional visibility

The focus is on making business data easier to access, interpret, and use with an integration approach that can evolve alongside your reporting requirements.

Our latest blog explores Power BI integration approaches, key considerations, and how connected data can strengthen your BI environment.

The right Azure expertise can turn a cloud initiative into a stronger technology capability.

Azure projects often span application development, migration, integration, deployment, and ongoing optimization.

As those requirements evolve, having the right technical expertise becomes important to keeping the work aligned with business priorities.

An experienced Azure development team can contribute across -

+ Integration - Connect applications, APIs, databases, and enterprise systems
+ Application Development - Build and enhance cloud-based applications
+ Deployment - Support testing, CI/CD, and production environments
+ Optimization - Improve application performance and scalability
+ AI & ML - Extend Azure initiatives with intelligent capabilities
+ Migration - Move applications and workloads to Azure

The value comes from bringing these capabilities together around the specific requirements of the business.

That could mean extending an existing development team, supporting a focused migration, building a new Azure application, or bringing specialized expertise into a larger cloud initiative.

Our latest blog explores when to hire Azure developers, the skills to consider, and how to find the right expertise for your Azure requirements.

The right collections model depends on what your business needs from its AR function.

For some organizations, keeping collections in-house provides the control and customer familiarity they value.

For others, an external team can bring additional capacity, specialized expertise, and greater flexibility as volumes change.

The decision becomes clearer when you look beyond the basic cost of each model.

Consider -

+ Customer Relationships - How closely does collections need to align with your customer experience?
+ Recovery Performance - Which model can deliver stronger recovery against the resources invested?
+ Capacity - How much internal time can collections reasonably consume as the business grows?
+ Risk - What level of compliance oversight and operational control does your business require?
+ Scale - Can your current team manage changing account volumes and aging receivables?
+ Cost - What is the full cost of staffing, technology, training, compliance, and recovery?

The comparison becomes even more useful when you consider the cost-to-collect, recovery potential, customer experience, and scalability together.

For many organizations, the answer can also be a hybrid model, keeping relationship-sensitive activities close to the business while bringing in specialized support where additional capacity or expertise creates value.

Our latest blog breaks down in-house vs. outsourced AR collections, including the factors, cost considerations, and scenarios that can help you determine which approach fits your business.

The value of enterprise data depends on how effectively it moves across your business.

ERP, CRM, legacy applications, and cloud platforms each hold important business information.

Bringing that data together requires more than connecting systems. It calls for a well-planned approach to extraction, transformation, loading, and ongoing management.

That’s where SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) plays a strategic role within the Microsoft ecosystem.

With the right implementation, SSIS can help you -

+ Consolidate data from diverse sources into structured environments such as SQL Server, Azure Synapse, and Power BI
+ Build customizable ETL workflows around business rules and transformation requirements
+ Manage enterprise data integration through governed, maintainable packages
+ Automate recurring data movement and reduce manual processing
+ Support timely reporting and data-backed decisions

The implementation strategy matters just as much as the technology.

Connector requirements, processing volumes, package maintenance, deployment practices, and access to experienced SSIS talent all influence long-term value.

SSIS works best when its capabilities are aligned with your data architecture and business priorities.

Our latest blog examines why strategic leaders prioritize SQL Server Integration Services, the considerations involved in implementation, and the business outcomes a well-planned SSIS approach can support.

IBM i modernization is becoming more intelligent, more informed, and more precise.

AI is adding a new layer to how we approach modernization, particularly when it comes to understanding the applications that have supported business operations for years.

At Integrative Systems, we apply AI across key stages of the modernization journey to accelerate the work that matters:

+ Analyze RPG code and uncover embedded business logic
+ Map application dependencies and relationships
+ Extract and organize application knowledge
+ Accelerate impact analysis and modernization assessment
+ Support code transformation and development activities
+ Strengthen documentation and knowledge transfer

This helps our teams move faster from understanding the existing environment to identifying the right modernization path.

The value comes from combining AI-driven analysis with deep IBM i expertise.

AI helps accelerate the work.
Our experts bring the business and technical context.

Together, they create a more structured approach to modernizing IBM i applications while building on the knowledge already embedded in the environment.

Our latest blog explores how we apply AI to IBM i application modernization and the role it can play across the modernization lifecycle.
