The Challenge
NewCold’s rapid global growth and highly automated operations led to increasing complexity in its IT and infrastructure landscape. With multiple facilities, technologies, and continuous innovation, it became difficult to maintain oversight and manage dependencies. The organization needed a structured way to support both ongoing innovation and effective lifecycle management.
The Solution
NewCold implemented BlueDolphin as a central repository to map applications, infrastructure, and their relationships across global operations. By connecting applications to processes, capabilities, and physical infrastructure, the organization gained a comprehensive view of its architecture. BlueDolphin enabled the team to standardize data, assess new application requests, and support governance processes such as risk and compliance checks. This allowed NewCold to balance rapid innovation with structured control.

- Centralized and continuously updated architecture repository.
- Improved decision-making for application rationalization and new requests.
- Enhanced governance, including cybersecurity and compliance checks.
