OUR APPROACH

Roadmap
  • Application and infrastructure review, documentation and consultation
  • Project planning and management to ensure a smooth transition
Prioritize
  • Cloud strategy recommendations and design
  • Tech stack alignment
  • Resource and skills assignment

 
Implement
  • Customized design and architecture
  • Implementation, migration, and support
Manage
  • Applications and APIs are integrated with cloud platform
  • Database configuration and optimization
  • Security planning and testing

The speed of change in the market and the evaporation of talent within an organization is leaving a void in best practices and innovation and keeping organizations from meeting their digital transformation goals.

“Any successful digital transformation journey should always begin with an understanding of where you are today and where you want to go. Not all applications and workloads are designed to run optimally on any platform. CBTS can help guide you on that transformational journey and get it right the first time.”

Case studies

ali_center_logo_case_study.png
In 2005, a non-profit museum and cultural center was established in Louisville, Kentucky, dedicated to the renowned boxer Muhammad Ali. The Muhammad Ali Center spans six floors and 96,750 square feet of interactive exhibits and memorabilia related to this cultural and sports icon.

Problem

The museum curators wanted to open a new interactive experience called “Generation Ali” in its main exhibit area to attract new and repeat visitors. However, they needed a partner to help with the concept, development, and execution of the technology components.

CBTS Solution

CBTS designed, developed, and executed four separate exhibits as part of the experience, which included:

  • A database-driven description of historical events in Muhammad Ali’s life displayed via a 75″ interactive touchscreen.
  • Five multi-touch display stations with cameras and microphones. Each station enables visitors to create videos answering the question: “What are you fighting for?”
  • Two 32-inch interactive screens feature Ali’s humanitarian awards and the associated videos for each ceremony.
  • Visitors create custom-themed posters of themselves following in Ali’s footsteps and pledging their support to the community using a green screen exhibit equipped with a high-resolution camera.

Outcome

The immersive exhibit brought to life the accomplishments of Muhammad Ali and helped the museum realize their attendance and visitor experience goals.

Aligning with business objectives

Modern customers demand intuitive, responsive applications with up-to-the-second information. A company’s platforms must be highly secure—following data governance and risk assessment protocols, policies, and procedures—and scalable on demand to optimize operations fully. CBTS is your trusted application partner at each phase, from developing and deploying modern applications to the ongoing management, monitoring, and optimization of app operations.
