Systems Analyst-Mainframe

FENS Migration and Modernization Plans

Deirdre introduced herself as working for Eric Emerson and managing critical tier 0 applications at Fidelity, including the wireless FENS application which she aims to modernize and migrate from the mainframe. She explained that FENS is essential for communication, providing alerts and data through various platforms., while Deirdre noted the challenge of migrating parts of the FENS infrastructure from the mainframe to reduce MIPS.

Templating System Modernization Initiative

Deirdre explained the complexity of their templating system, which involves managing 1,100 templates and integrating with both mainframe and distributed systems. She outlined their need for analysts to help understand and modernize this system, with a goal of moving it off the mainframe by 2026.

Systems Analysis - Alert Processing: Perform current state analysis of existing mainframe / distributed platform and document.

Are you able to provide consultants with requisite skills & expertise to perform indepth analysis and develop & deliver highly detailed system documentation/specifications on highly complex existing legacy mainframe & distributed platforms and meet with defined expectations?

Analysis would comprise:

• Define process flows for alerts by business unit and persona
• Determine and document business logic & parameterization, and resulting expected behaviors
• Determine and document business logic and parameters which are required to support business unit specific filtering
• Document in details and data enrichment and detail source systems that provide this data
• Define Data Transformations and logic that was applied
• Define logic for aggregations of alerts/notifications
• Define logic for deduping of alerts/notifications
• Alert/Notification confirmations
• When responding to this question please consider the below expectations.

Expectations:

i) Perform detailed analysis covering current state with the ability to understand system workflows, processing requirements & create detailed diagrams with detailed documentation (which will later be translated into new application/system processing requirements).

ii) Ability to provide Analysts with suitable skills (mainframe & distributed platform) / expertise and to enable rapid onboarding.

iii) it is also expected that Consultant Analysts can work independently and make progress where they encounter ambiguity.

Systems Analysis - Alert Template Documentation: Provide current state documentation of Alert Templates.

Alert Template documentation requires the analysis of end-customer notifications and documenting applicable logic and behaviors as well as alert artifacts themselves.

Analysis would comprise the following:

• Capture & document alert rendering for every BU, Persona & Device Type
• Document logic applied to each alert template
• Document any special or custom logic
• When responding to this question please consider the below expectations.

Expectations:

i) Perform detailed analysis covering current state with the ability to understand system workflows, processing requirements & create detailed diagrams with detailed documentation (which will later be translated into new application/system processing requirements).

ii) Ability to provide Analysts with suitable skills (mainframe & distributed platform) / expertise and to enable rapid onboarding.

iii) it is also expected that Consultant Analysts can work independently and make progress where they encounter ambiguity.

Systems Analysis - Future platform Systems Analysis & System Requirement Specifications: Provide future platform Systems Analysis & System Requirement Specifications.

Utilize details captured for current state application workflows, business logic and processing rules and configurations and produce documentation for proposed flows through BNS for each alert, business unit, persona & device type.

This would define workflows and processing requirements.
