Capco/Commerzbank in IT complexity initiative

Capco has launched an IT Complexity Model project with Commerzbank.

Currently in the first stage of its development, the project is focused on IT applications and has been statistically validated by both Commerzbank and academia on 1,000 applications over three years. Other firms are being selected to participate, with the intention that the additional data will serve to increase the model’s precision.

Dr Peter Leukert, Commerzbank, says: “We believe that a complexity metric could substantially aid the CIO in decision making and we are well on the way to developing and applying such a metric. We are very pleased to be working with Capco on this ground-breaking initiative.”

Mark Reeves, Capco, adds: “In our whitepaper, we are aiming to provide a useful overview of the problem of IT complexity and showcase some new ideas for approaching this issue. The goal of the complexity project is to foster a useful dialogue on the complexity issue, continue gathering information and data and ultimately make a substantial contribution to how CIOs improve their organisations.”

Further information on the project is outlined in the aforementioned whitepaper at:
