Integration

Our solutions support both data and functionality sharing across applications, thereby allowing business to maximise the benefit out of their legacy systems, yet keeping them loosely coupled.Our solutions add value by integrating legacy systems using best of technology frameworks to assist business-critical operational functions. Data shared across platforms can be used in a controlled manner to reduce redundancy and increase consistency.

Support and Maintenance

Existing applications require a lot of attention to make sure they continue to deliver the same value throughout their life cycle. We provide support services for application and infrastructure maintenance to minimise the focus on existing solutions and help companies concentrate on their business. As part of the continual improvement process, that is the driving factor for our innovation, we build in automated solutions to do health checks and report on a periodic basis.

Reconciliation and Reporting

Lack of collaboration between analogous reconciliation processes can result in an increase in operational costs and introduce errors. It also leads to reduced efficiencies due to duplication of work and non-streamlined processes. Our solution to this problem is simple - identify and report. Our tools built by partnering with business and subject matter experts, help to reconcile and report the data for comparison and tally purposes. Early identification of the problems and reporting them helps business teams quickly fix the data issues and reduces reconciliation challenges in the long run thereby increasing operational efficiency.

Bespoke Application Development

Having a good understanding of the domain helps us understand our client needs better. We strive to deliver value by proactively taking up operational challenges and building custom solutions to address them. Our custom solutions are flexible and feasible, as the functionality is completely built for the business users to increase their productivity, minimise costs and maximise benefits.

In the last few years the IT industry has changed at very drastic pace. To name a few - Cloud Computing, Enterprise Mobility, Software as a Service, Application Integration have all had a significant impact on the way businesses operate and generate profits. This is where WHISHWORKS has been most effective. We have vigorously adapted to this change, developing leading edge solutions and products for our clients across Financial Services, Product Engineering and Strategic Partners.
