Gen-i-Sys© Value
Gen-i-Sys© applications cost less to create leaving resources available for an enterprise to invest in other applications or business priorities. Gen-i-Sys applications are completed faster, designed by the business analyst and not a programmer, easier to maintain, self-documenting, have longer life cycles, don't need to be approval tested, and are immediately deployed on the Internet/intranet. The following comparison illustrates the difference between a basic custom programmed application and a Gen i Sys defined application. Application Assumptions:
  • Custom programmed application takes 6 months to develop with 1.5 months business analysis, 3 months programming and 1.5 months for testing and deployment
  • Annual costs for maintaining an existing application are 20% of initial development costs
  • The life span of the application is 50 months
  • The company expects to save 15% over the life of the application and accumulated savings pay for the cost of development
  • Analyst and programmer time is based on $125/hour

Additional Gen-i-Sys assumptions:

  • Gen-i-Sys eliminates use of programmers reducing development time by 50% - the application is deployed after only 3 months
  • The application life cycle is increased by 20% - a longer life span of 60 months or 5 years
  • The same 15% savings are applied over the life of the application. Actual savings should be higher since Gen i Sys applications reduce the loss of business information lost in the knowledge transfer from the subject matter (SME) expert to the programmer
  • The Gen-i-Sys application is immediately deployed on the web
  • Maintenance of the application is lower and any updates don't need programming changes, the SME can incorporate any future application modifications
Creating the basic custom programmed application takes six months and uses $163,000 in analyst and programming resources. The application has a useful life of four years and the cumulative savings become positive during the last quarter of year four.
