| Software factory Productivity Improvement |
| Software development costs represent one of the main IT expenditure items and one of the most difficult to control. Bip. proposes an approach that relies heavily on Function Point techniques to assess the consistency of software assets, the costs required for its maintenance and for the set up of programs aimed at improving productivity of the factory software (internally or externally) to ensure alignment with the best players in the market. As far as Bip. is concerned, those who adopted this structured and systematic approach have reduced the cost of software development by 25% already in the first 6 months. |

| Information Asset Management |
| Business processes and services quality is strictly dependent on the quality of information used. The high number of information sources present, both, within and outside the corporate perimeter, the possibility to aggregate heterogeneous content, the exponential growth in the volume of data require information asset governance, ensuring stakeholders the content they actually need with the correct quality and cost management in line with the market. Bip. has supported its clients in the design of complex information architectures programs, data quality and data integration, master data management, customer data integration, with significant benefits in terms of information availability and quality. |
