TURNOVER® Lifecycle Manager

Enterprise software applications and the source code that underpins them are vital assets of the organization. Over time, application complexity is likely to increase and IT is held more accountable for managing these critical business resources.

TURNOVER® Lifecycle Manager is a powerful IBM i Application Lifecycle Management (ALM) solution. Designed to manage the most complex of development environments, it provides granular control over your software change processes, using automation to cut errors, and enforceable workflows that allow changes to flow swiftly from request through to production.

Optimized to manage your IBM i, web, and multi-platform application changes, TURNOVER® Lifecycle Manager streamlines and unifies development activities across all technology teams, with fully integrated problem and incident tracking, project management, version control, and application deployment capabilities.

TURNOVER® Lifecycle Manager has a proven record of helping companies satisfy regulatory requirements such as SOX (Sarbanes-Oxley Act), HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability, Accountability Act), and the FDA (Food and Drug Administration). Using a central, auditable database, detailed insight into the execution of your software change processes can be obtained quickly and easily.
