APIs: the untapped strategic enabler

Organisations typically only use a fraction of the potential of APIs to support their business goals. Used properly, they can unlock genuine digital transformation and free you up to focus on the unique value your organisation delivers. Scott Logic can help you harness this potential.

The new white paper by our Innovation Director Graham Odds will provide you with a non-technical exploration of the oft-untapped business potential of the humble API.

In order to unlock this potential, it is vital for the whole organisation, not just IT, to understand how APIs “done properly” can be a significant strategic enabler – helping you to innovate, accelerate time to market, get value from legacy, and refocus on the unique value you offer.

APIs in banking and finance

Scott Logic can help empower your approach to APIs for internal and open consumption to facilitate new commercial opportunities.

What can APIs done 'properly' deliver?

Get more from services you use every day

Your organisation will probably already be using APIs in a tactical way, but by promoting them to be a 'first-class citizen', they can help you address a wide range of business challenges, including helping you to connect multiple internal services and to replace inefficient processes/workflows.

Get value from legacy during migration

APIs allow you to shape a more agile strategy in planning your migration away from legacy, forming a key element of a new modular approach to your IT infrastructure. With this strategy, you continue to derive value from your legacy systems even as you incrementally replace them.

Accelerate innovation and time to market

APIs allow you to build software in a better way, creating modular software for reuse. The more API services you create, the more each new product or feature you develop gets a head start, with some of its technical challenges already solved – accelerating your time to market.

Focus on where you add unique value

Your organisation no longer needs to be all things to all people. With APIs, you can ultimately participate in a wider ecosystem of value, enabling third-party providers to meet user needs you would struggle to address, freeing you up to focus on where you provide unique value.
