5X FASTER DASHBOARD MIGRATION WITH AI-POWERED WORKFLOWS FOR A LEADING INSURANCE COMPANY

The migration of 83 legacy reports was accelerated through AI-powered delivery, cutting pre-development time from 20 hours to 1.5 hours and accelerating development by 5x, with 100% team adoption.

INTRODUCTION

Legacy modernization initiatives often require teams to understand existing systems, rebuild requirements, and migrate complex business logic before development can move forward.

A leading insurance company faced this challenge when migrating 83 legacy reports to a modern analytics platform within a fixed timeline. Traditional delivery methods could not meet the required deadline, making a faster approach essential.

CI&T introduced a multi-agent workflow across the development lifecycle to accelerate activities from legacy specification retrieval and requirements preparation to development and testing.

Using AI-powered workflows Powered by CI&T Flow, teams automated key pre-development activities and accelerated backend and frontend execution while maintaining team participation throughout the process.

The result was a 92% reduction in pre-development time, 5x faster delivery, and 100% adoption of the agentic workflow across the development team.

THE CHALLENGE: MODERNIZING LEGACY ANALYTICS UNDER A TIGHT DEADLINE

Migrating 83 legacy reports required extensive pre-development work, making the timeline difficult to meet with traditional delivery methods.

Large-Scale Legacy Migration

The organization needed to decommission its legacy business intelligence platform and migrate 83 reports to a modern analytics environment within a fixed timeline.

Time-Consuming Pre-Development Work

Retrieving legacy specifications, preparing documentation, creating mockups, and writing stories required significant manual effort before development could begin.

Delivery Timeline Constraints

The migration could not be completed within the required timeline using traditional delivery methods, creating a need to significantly accelerate both pre-development and implementation.

THE SOLUTION

CI&T implemented a multi-agent workflow designed to support the full development lifecycle, from understanding legacy reports
to building and testing the new dashboards.

AI-powered capabilities helped automate repetitive activities, prepare work for development faster, and accelerate

execution across backend and frontend development.

Automated Discovery
and Requirements

AI agents retrieved specifications from legacy reporting panels and supported the creation of documentation and mockups for approval.

The workflow also helped transform requirements into epics and stories, reducing the manual effort needed to prepare work for development.

Accelerated Dashboard Development

AI-powered workflows supported both backend and frontend activities required to rebuild the reports on the new analytics platform.

This included creating semantic models and metrics as well as building the dashboards, helping teams move more efficiently from requirements to working solutions.

Integrated
Testing

Automated testing was incorporated into the workflow to support validation throughout the migration process.

By connecting discovery, planning, development, and testing, the approach created a more streamlined path from legacy reports to modern dashboards.

THE IMPACT

The AI-powered approach delivered measurable improvements across pre-development, implementation, and team adoption.
