A Software Factory is an integrated suite of software tailored to meet your organisation's specific needs, goals, and mission. It adopts a systematic approach to software development, focusing on scale, productivity, and security. By addressing these three aspects, it fosters an emergent capability of Reliable Efficiency, transforming the way you create software and leading to transformative effects on your entire business operations.
Organisations failing to evolve from the technology age to the digital age are endangering their relevance. Despite their key capabilities, they can't truly transform without addressing several critical issues. Like using Stone Age tools in an Iron Age world, these companies are being outperformed by competitors who have mastered digital transformation.
These firms grapple with legacy systems that drain their IT budgets, preventing swift responses to market shifts. They're hampered by inefficiencies, bottlenecks, and security issues, which reduce productivity and customer satisfaction. The complexities of creating scalable, adaptable software inhibit their agility in rapidly changing markets—a lack of understanding of their value streams results in inefficiency and waste. Moreover, a misalignment between their software delivery and business outcomes hampers their ability to chart a clear digital transformation roadmap.
The upshot is these organisations are gradually losing their competitive edge - they're becoming digital relics, even if they don't realise it yet.
Software Factory is an innovative and integrated suite of software that facilitates a systematic andreliable approach to software development—unlocking the full potential of digital transformation.
It leverages a range of Red Hat technology, including the Ansible Automation Platform, Enterprise Linux, Developer Hub and OpenShift, to help development teams work as securely and efficiently as possible—automating manual processes, enabling rapid scalability, and avoiding the need to ‘reinvent the wheel' when it comes to developing code.

Enhancing scale leads to potential revenue growth. A scalable infrastructure prepares your business to handle increasing demands and seize new market opportunities, leading to increased revenue. Scalable solutions mitigate the risk of loss of service or revenue due to an inability to manage increased loads or integration demands.
Improved productivity translates into significant cost control. The automation and standardisation inherent in a Software Factory reduce time, and resources spent on routine tasks and minimise errors, respectively. The resultant productivity boost leads to lower operational costs and higher potential revenue.
The potential financial losses from data breaches or non-compliance with regulations are mitigated by robust security measures. By investing in a Software Factory, you proactively protect your brand's reputation, maintain customer trust, and mitigate potential financial losses.
