01Platform Overview / Applications
Rationalize the
Portfolio You Own
Application portfolio rationalization without spreadsheets. Every app tracked against strategy, cost, risk, and ownership — in one place, not in fifteen.
The portfolio, honestly. Owner, lifecycle, and cost signals on every app — rationalization candidates included.
02Portfolio
One source of truth per app
Owner, stakeholders, criticality, lifecycle stage, cost signal, linked capabilities, linked technologies, linked decisions. No orphan spreadsheet.
03Rationalization
Retire, consolidate, invest
Every app gets a recommendation state. Retire overlaps, consolidate duplicates, protect the ones that execute strategy. All reasoning is linked, not hidden in a consultant's deck.
04Strategy link
Prove which apps earn their license
Link apps to the initiatives they serve. Apps without a strategic anchor surface in the 'floating' view — candidates for retirement or explicit sponsorship.
05In practice
150 apps become 90, then 60
First pass identifies duplicates — three CRMs across business units, two overlapping BI tools, a handful of zombie SaaS licenses nobody owns. Second pass maps every surviving app to a capability. Third pass flags apps without a capability anchor. What used to be a six-month audit is now a weekly review.
