Why should you get IBM Optim from G2?
G2 engineers are both seasoned IT professionals and business analysts. G2 knows the ins and outs of IBM Optim, and has over 20 years
of success in handling firm-wide data issues for many clients with a wide variety of IT configurations. With hands-on technical and
business experience in all of the key functions addressed by IBM Optim, G2 is uniquely positioned to deliver a superior implementation
of IBM Optim in any IT environment.
Business Value
Case Study: A large asset manager requested a process for extracting data from its fund accounting system while dynamically keeping the same
data up-to-date in an Object Data Store (ODS). G2 engineered a unique hybrid solution that took advantage of the best features of the fund
accounting platform while also adapting the data for use by the client's Corporate Data Warehouse (CDW).
Information Governance
G2, through its work with several Hedge Fund Prime Brokers, has gained an effective perspective on the information governance requirements of
large institutions. G2 has also worked on enhancing data warehouses for three of the major Prime Brokers, and is recognized as a specialist
in the field of data management for Hedge Fund services.
Simplification of Infrastructure
G2 frequently assists customers in retiring older accounting systems that cannot track the complex financial instruments managed by
today's asset managers. Retiring these systems is a lot like heart-transplant surgery — the legacy system has to operate up until the
moment when the new system takes over. G2's experience in this area ensures a smooth transition when using Optim to retire legacy
systems in the financial services arena.
Business Continuity
G2 has designed Business Continuity Planning/Disaster Recovery (BCP/DR) plans for several large hedge funds. We use our experience to
determine the appropriate use of Optim in planning and executing successful implementations.
Implementation Approach
G2's complete business process review and functional analysis is designed to quickly discover project characteristics and define
appropriate Best Practices. Developed by our lead project manager and informed by deep experience with large-scale implementations,
G2's Best Practices lets us design the right plan for the project, then execute and implement according to that plan. G2's
Best Practices capitalizes on the firm's technical and business assets to ensure that every implementation benefits from the most
effective deployment of expertise and resources.
G2 is a high-quality software integration and consulting firm that provides business operations improvements to investment firms. While
some G2 clients explicitly request a system implementation or upgrade, others require certain reporting or data processing enhancements.
In every case, G2 clients fully expect software implementations to meet business requirements and improve their operating environment. G2
recognizes and delivers on this expectation — that's why we're different.
