IBM i Change Management Solutions for Business Analysts
How does ARCAD help Business Analysts?
As a Business Analyst, I act as the strategic bridge between business needs and IT systems. I must understand and model critical applications—often legacy systems, sometimes poorly or not documented at all. My mission: to translate business needs into application features, ensuring a coherent, secure, and business-aligned digital transformation. To do this, I need visibility, autonomy, and effective collaboration with IT teams.
How can ARCAD help me?
