What Our Customers Are Saying

  • "At EY things move slowly and are costly because of the many silos we have to deal with internally, but I appreciate what BP3 does because it helps us tremendously!"

    BUSINESS PRODUCT MANAGER, EY

  • "I have been working with BP3 for almost two years now and it has been and continues to be a partnership for developing IT solutions that actually work for the business. The team is so engaged and energized. I really feel BP3 provides developers that are easy to work with, dedicated to providing a quality product, can communicate and translate needs of the business into a workable IT framework plus they understand the core of BPM technology to discuss what it can and can’t do. They have been able to walk that line to deliver what is needed, not necessarily what was requested and I feel we have a better tool because of their contributions."

    ELI LILLY AND COMPANY

  • "My team really loves the new system and they are excited for the enhancements coming in the next release. I think you all are doing an amazing job and I appreciate all the support you have provided."

    NAVY FEDERAL CREDIT UNION

  • "What's going on here?  Things are going TOO WELL!"

    ELI LILLY AND COMPANY

  • "I really didn't expect to see this much this soon, I just thought it would be so far off in the future, so I'm pretty blown away."

    NAVY FEDERAL CREDIT UNION USER

  • “I rarely give out complements. This has exceeded all our expectations. Really great work.”

    CIO, SILICON LABS

  • "TTI now has 10 bots in production that have already saved the company about $600,000, eliminated many mundane processes, and eliminated the need to hire about 18 employees."

  • "Your attention to detail, solutions-oriented thinking, and patience in educating our team did not go unnoticed. We were impressed. We look forward to a potential opportunity to work together in the future."

  • “What’s great about BP3 is that we give you a string, and you figure out how to make a rope. <other vendors> need us to give them the rope and make a knot for them, then they complain that they don’t get enough of our time…”

  • "Our business partners in Lending did not have a high level of confidence resulting from the first BPA PFM application.  However, this time around, the difference is night and day, and there have been kudos sent over to us by management in Lending regarding the communication, leadership and attention to detail this BPA team provides."

  • "We definitely recognize and appreciate the amazing support from the team and am glad to have quality partners aiding us in this journey.”

  • "We had a few odds stacked against us and other challenges till the end. But we were able to overcome all this with some sheer grit and quick planning. I always appreciated the high level of confidence coming from Jay and Rahul throughout and that mindset is a very big plus in today's environment. I think you guys pulled a rabbit out of the hat. Interfacing with the Business stakeholders and winning their confidence was a very bug plus."

  • “You guys have really opened some eyes here and I’m hopeful that will be the catalyst we need to get everyone pointed in the right direction.”

Frequently Asked Questions

Update Systems Through App Modernization

What is application modernization and why does it matter?
Application modernization is the process of updating legacy software to more modern architectures, platforms, and experiences. It enables agility, scalability, and security—crucial for today’s digital operations.
How does BP3 approach legacy system modernization?
We start with discovery and architecture assessment. Then we define whether to re-platform, refactor, rebuild, or replace based on value, technical debt, and strategic goals.
What are the signs that our systems need modernization?

Frequent downtime, slow performance, poor UX, lack of integration, and high maintenance costs are key signals. BP3 helps identify and prioritize modernization candidates.

Can modernization help bridge the gap between business and IT?

Yes. Modern apps are easier to integrate, adapt, and govern—helping business teams access data faster and collaborate more effectively with IT.

Is app modernization only for companies migrating to the cloud?

Not at all. While cloud-native architecture is often a goal, we also modernize on-prem apps and hybrid deployments, depending on compliance, cost, and context.

How do you align modernization with business goals?
Every BP3 engagement starts with outcome mapping. We tie modernization efforts to goals like time-to-market, cost-to-serve, or improved service experience.
How do we prioritize what to modernize first?
BP3 uses a framework that scores systems based on business impact, risk, technical debt, and readiness—ensuring a phased, high-ROI approach.
Can modernization support regulatory compliance or data governance?
Absolutely. Modern apps are easier to audit, update, and secure—making them ideal for environments with strict data or operational requirements.
How do you avoid business disruption during modernization?
We use phased rollouts, co-existence patterns, and service-oriented refactoring—so your critical operations continue uninterrupted during transitions.
What are the most common modernization paths (rehost, refactor, rebuild)?
BP3 helps determine whether to lift-and-shift (rehost), restructure code (refactor), or re-architect entirely (rebuild)—based on cost, complexity, and long-term ROI.
What platforms and technologies does BP3 support for modernization?
We work with cloud platforms (Azure, AWS, GCP), containerization (Docker, Kubernetes), microservices architecture, low-code platforms (Appian, Pega, Power Platform), and traditional enterprise stacks.
Can BP3 support modernization in highly regulated industries?
Yes. We’ve delivered modernization programs in healthcare, government, telecom, and finance—all with strict compliance and data protection requirements.
How do you integrate modern apps with legacy data systems?
We use APIs, service buses, and data virtualization to connect modern interfaces to legacy systems—ensuring continuity while reducing friction.
What is the role of UX design in app modernization?
UX is central. Modernized apps must be intuitive and consistent across channels. BP3 integrates UX consulting to improve adoption and satisfaction.
How do you future-proof a modernized application?
We use scalable architectures, modular code, cloud services, and configuration over customization—so your systems evolve with your needs.
What’s the role of DevOps and CI/CD in modernization?
Modern apps should be built and deployed iteratively. BP3 sets up CI/CD pipelines, test automation, and infrastructure-as-code to support agile releases.
Can modernization reduce technical debt?

Yes. We refactor or sunset redundant systems, simplify overly complex codebases, and document key architecture decisions—dramatically reducing future maintenance effort.

How do you manage risk in large-scale modernization programs?

We use phased delivery, clear rollback plans, architectural decision records (ADRs), and automated testing to mitigate risk and maximize visibility.

What’s the benefit of microservices vs. monolith architecture in modernization?
Microservices improve scalability and resilience, but aren’t always required. BP3 recommends the architecture that best balances agility with operational overhead.
How long does a modernization project typically take?
It depends on scope. A single app refactor might take 6–12 weeks. A full platform transformation could span 6–18 months. We help you balance speed and stability.
Can BP3 help modernize custom-built internal applications?
Yes. We specialize in untangling bespoke systems—migrating to low-code, service-based architectures while preserving business logic.
How do you ensure continuity during app rewrites or migrations?

We use parallel environments, shadow launches, user pilots, and rollback paths to ensure minimal risk and high confidence.

What’s the difference between low-code modernization and traditional rebuilds?
Low-code platforms accelerate delivery and are easier to maintain. BP3 helps clients evaluate when low-code is appropriate and how to avoid vendor lock-in.
Do you offer staff augmentation during modernization projects?
Yes. We provide expert consultants, solution architects, UX designers, and delivery leads to supplement internal teams throughout transformation.
How does BP3 manage modernization across multiple departments?
We use centralized governance with distributed delivery—so every team moves independently but within a shared framework and design system.
How do you ensure modernized apps are accessible and responsive?
Accessibility and mobile responsiveness are baked into our design sprints, using WCAG-compliant design systems and progressive front-end frameworks.
What post-launch support does BP3 offer?
We offer hypercare, performance monitoring, optimization sprints, and knowledge transfer to ensure you’re confident maintaining the new system.
Can we modernize apps incrementally instead of all at once?
Yes. We often begin with the most valuable modules or services, then expand modernization in manageable, trackable phases.
How do you align stakeholders during complex modernization efforts?
We run executive alignment workshops, build shared scorecards, and use visual delivery boards to keep everyone informed and aligned.
What kind of ROI can we expect from app modernization?
Clients typically see reduced maintenance costs, improved performance, better user engagement, and faster deployment cycles—often with full ROI in 6–12 months.
How does modernization improve cybersecurity?
Modern apps use updated frameworks, encryption standards, identity providers, and monitoring tools—vastly improving your security posture.
How does modernization impact user satisfaction?
Faster response times, better UX, fewer crashes, and mobile access all improve the user experience—driving higher adoption and retention.
Can modernization help with sustainability goals?
Yes. Modern cloud infrastructure reduces energy consumption, eliminates hardware overhead, and supports remote-first, paperless operations.
How do we measure modernization success beyond cost savings?
Look at agility, deploy frequency, user satisfaction, platform uptime, and operational scalability. BP3 helps define metrics that reflect business value.
What impact does modernization have on talent retention?
Modern systems make work easier and more rewarding. Developers, analysts, and operations teams are more likely to stay engaged in environments with well-designed tech.
How does modernization affect integration across the business?
New systems are easier to connect and scale—enabling cross-functional workflows, data consistency, and better analytics.
Can modernization improve speed-to-market for new features?
Absolutely. Agile architectures, CI/CD, and modular platforms make it possible to test, release, and iterate on features much faster.
What is the difference between legacy, modern, and cloud-native apps?
Legacy apps are typically monolithic, server-bound, and hard to maintain. Modern apps use APIs, modular components, and are often deployed via containers. Cloud-native apps go further—built specifically for cloud scalability and elasticity.
How do I know if we should refactor or rebuild an application?
BP3 performs technical assessments based on code quality, performance, architecture, and user needs—then recommends the best-fit approach.
What teams should be involved in modernization planning?
IT, business owners, product managers, end users, security, and architecture teams. We engage all stakeholders to ensure cross-functional alignment.
Do I need cloud expertise to modernize apps?
Not necessarily. BP3 guides you through cloud adoption where it adds value, and supports hybrid or on-prem strategies if needed.
What’s the best entry point to start modernizing systems?
Start with a critical app that has a clear pain point and measurable value. BP3 helps you build a case, define scope, and deliver a successful pilot.
What tools are available to assess our modernization readiness?
We use modernization readiness frameworks, architecture scorecards, and value stream mapping to assess technical debt and transformation potential.
How do I communicate the business case for modernization to leadership?
Focus on cost of delay, agility, customer experience, risk mitigation, and talent retention. BP3 helps build board-ready business cases with data.
Can modernization align with agile or DevOps delivery models?
