Cost-effective application development

The Bank Transformation Toolkit application development product can provide cost savings at the earliest stages of development planning and all the way to deployment. Here are some of the ways that the toolkit reduces development costs:

Less reliance on high-level programming skills
From back-end connectors to user interface building blocks, the toolkit provides components that are easy to understand and use. This increases the size of the developer pool and reduces training costs.
Reduced development efforts by a rich set of development tools
Bank Transformation Toolkit provides a rich set of development tools that can help developers build BTT transaction rapidly. These tools also helps to shorten the development cycle.
Write once and deploy on several platforms
A toolkit-based application is portable across several platforms. Instead of a costly "from-the-ground-up" development effort for each target platform, you define the application just once and then manage the deployment to any of the supported platforms.
Faster application development with fewer developers
The quicker an application can be developed the lower the cost. The toolkit's pre-built components reduce the person-hours needed to complete an application.
Improved development team communication
The Rational® Application Developer provides team development environment. A common repository for the development products keeps the entire team synchronized and up-to-date. This avoids costly duplication of effort and rework.
