Stability for critical IT processes
IBM mainframe systems remain at the heart of stable IT architectures in banks, insurance companies and financial services providers. They are reliable, secure and indispensable for the operation of business-critical applications.
As a high-performance backend platform, the IBM mainframe stores transaction and inventory data and ensures the highest levels of security and performance.
Cloud solutions are changing the IT landscape, but host systems remain essential. With our solutions, you benefit from the highest level of data security and first-class performance to reliably protect your sensitive information. Using state-of-the-art technologies, we enable the processing of large transaction volumes in real time so that your business runs smoothly at all times. We also ensure seamless integration into hybrid IT landscapes enabling your systems to interoperate optimally – regardless of existing structures.
We manage complex projects across all phases – from planning to quality assurance. Objective: minimizing risks, maximizing stability and ensuring on-time implementation.
We support your IBM mainframe applications throughout their entire life cycle – from strategic consulting and further development to operation and maintenance.

We assume operational responsibility for your IBM mainframe applications – temporarily or permanently – even during the replacement period when installing a new system.
Our services:
Professional mainframe support ensures the stable operation of business-critical core processes while cloud transformation can proceed in parallel. This guarantees performance, availability, and security on the host while also supporting seamless integration with hybrid architectures—ensuring that transformation does not become an operational risk.
Stability and fast response times are ensured through clearly defined service levels (e.g., response and recovery times), established escalation paths, and a structured handover process. In the event of a failure, this leads to rapid support, transparent communication, and sustainable root cause resolution—not just short-term “firefighting.”
Migrations and replacements can be supported from planning through data migration and interfaces (e.g., via ETL) to test and cutover management. The goals are traceable data quality, minimized downtime, and a controlled transition—including operational security during the transition phase.
Compliance is supported by secure operations management using established mainframe security mechanisms (e.g., RACF), clear role and rights management, complete documentation, and traceable changes. This reduces audit efforts and permanently protects sensitive transaction and inventory data.
Onboarding can begin with a structured inventory (applications, batch jobs, databases, interfaces, operational processes); responsibilities and priorities are then defined. This is followed by a gradual handover (shadowing/reverse shadowing), ensuring that knowledge, operations, and quality are secured from the very beginning.
We help you ensure that your critical systems continue to work reliably.
