Cont. Int.

Deploy

▪ Each SW development department manages its own

individual ALM toolset

▪ Variety of tools and vendors, incl. Siemens competitors

▪ Few GS IT services, low cross unit collaboration & synergies

▪ Different maturity levels: silo solutions, no continuous delivery,

no automated testing, limited cloud capabilities, etc.

▪ Provide integrated, scalable ALM tool chains as GS IT

services, helping developers to concentrate on their original job

▪ Promote our best-in-class Siemens tools (e.g. Polarion)

▪ Facilitate collaboration in SW development and unfold new

capabilities for the entire company (DevOps, Cloud, agile)
