PwC has aligned with MuleSoft to offer integration solutions for today’s digital businesses to help develop holistic, intelligent and secure integration capabilities that interconnect the entire ecosystem in real-time. We provide clients with integration capabilities that go well beyond technology alone—encompassing strategy through delivery - assisting with key aspects such as organizational, cultural, process, controls, cyber security and governance changes.
In organizations, business demands outpace IT's ability to respond, thus creating ‘A Digital Divide’. Underlying IT challenges have business impacts including:
Disparate systems & data
Fragmented and redundant integrations
Technical debt
Organizations are no longer isolated enterprises—they are distributed ecosystems of employees, customers, partners, and suppliers—all with different processes and systems. The proliferation of endpoints (apps, systems, processes, devices, data) and the influx of third-party cloud services is creating an extraordinarily complex integration environment. Traditional approaches to integrations will no longer work.
Our API-Led Integration strategy provides businesses the ability to connect an increasing number of technologies together with a set of standardized, reusable API services. By quickly connecting new information and operationalizing it across the entire enterprise, businesses can increase automation, enable tighter security, and create competitive advantages in their industry.
With PwC’s deep industry knowledge and emphasis on business outcomes, we can help you build a modern integration platform that is robust, scalable, and sustainable to quickly add value to your business and your people. We have tools and accelerators to help drive your integration migration at scale.
This cutting-edge integration strategy can help you improve decision making (e.g., reliable data), reduce the cost of technology (e.g., reusability, maintainability), and improve your business and partner interactions (e.g., easily accessible data). Additional benefits include:
Faster project delivery.
Increased project delivery speed by up to 2.5x1
Decreased development time by between 38%-67% depending on API complexity2
Lower costs of development and maintenance.
Increase development speed by 20%2
