DDC FPO Offers Outsourced Expertise and Resources for IBM i (AS400) Systems
RPG Programming service cost effectively and efficiently maintains and enhances AS400 systems without the challenges of in-house recruitment and retention
EVERGREEN, Colo., Jan. 19, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- DDC FPO, a leading global provider of business process outsourcing and technology solutions for the transportation and logistics industries, announced today a new IT Outsourcing solution that provides RPG Programming services for AS400 systems, now known as IBM iSeries systems.
Utilized specifically for commercial and enterprise applications, RPG programming skills are vital to any company using the iSeries systems. These applications are widely used across many industries, yet the talent pool is of skilled programming resources are declining.
According to DDC FPO's Senior Director of Sales, Chad Crotty, companies are struggling to find candidates among a very limited, aging, and expensive pool of RPG programmer resources. "We aim to close that skill gap with certified, trained RPG programming resources," Crotty explained.
DDC FPO's specialized RPG Programming service arms clients with the expertise and resources they need to maintain their iSeries systems without the challenges of in-house recruitment and retention.
Crotty, who works closely with some of DDC FPO's largest motor carrier partners and strategic technology integrators, spearheaded the RPG Programming initiative in order to equip DDC FPO clients with the resources needed to be successful now and through the future.
"Outsourcing iSeries RPG programming to DDC FPO ensures your organization's IT requirements are met efficiently and cost-effectively without fear for the future's talent pool," added Crotty. "With the iSeries' proven longevity, RPG programming is essential, and DDC FPO is pleased to be able to offer a strategic solution in an environment where maintaining an in-house RPG team is costly and challenging."
The iSeries ecosystem is extensive and requires years of training and experience to provide the level of support needed for applications written in RPG such as accounts receivable, dispatching, billing entry, freight rating, fleet maintenance, finance, and invoicing, among others. The challenges of RPG applications can come from any number of pressures including new business rules and regulatory compliance, integration with other applications, maintaining old codes, and converting old codes to latest version of RPG, and thousands of legacy applications, require support, enhancement, and even migration.
