GitHub Accelerated Modernization: 1 Day Workshop

Modernize mainframes, monoliths and legacy tech with AI.

Legacy systems are high-risk to modernize—they’re fragile, poorly documented, and deeply embedded in operations.  Our outcome-driven approach goes beyond adoption to drive application modernization through:

Accelerated alignment
Turn ideas into working proofs of concept with our streamlined approach—designed to identify your biggest opportunities and scale AI adoption across engineering.

Custom Copilot rules
We leverage your team's unique development patterns and develop tailored GitHub Copilot rules into a set of constraint frameworks that amplify productivity across your entire codebase.

Strategic MCP integration
Unlock maximum value through carefully identified MCP integration points that seamlessly connect your existing systems with acceleration framework.

Proof of Value
Experience quantifiable improvements in development velocity with measurable results in time-to-market and development costs with proof of value.

The AI-Driven Developer Experience
Get hands on with GitHub Copilot and see how AI can supercharge your engineering.

Workshop Agenda

Introductions and Objectives

Adapting to your ecosystem
Understand your "as-is" product engineering methodology and pain points which need to be addressed.

The AI Enhanced Modernization
Understand what an AI infused modernization looks like with GitHub offerings and demos.

GenAI POC Introduction
Kick off hands on exercise for the afternoon developing a GenAI POC using GitHub tooling for a pre-agreed use case.

POC Creation Exercise
Working with your engineering team and Slalom to create your POC.

POC Readout & Implementation
Review team(s) solution with the group along with insights. Learn and discuss the key areas of focus for production implementation.

Wrap up and next steps
Recap the key points from the session and discuss the creation of a POC with Slalom and Microsoft.

Workshop Outcomes
* Understand how AI will change how software is developed.
* Understand GitHub offerings for your engineering team.
* Roadmap for implementation recommendations.
* Prepared for 'Build as a Service' offering from Slalom and GitHub to help you achieve business outcomes and release the value quickly.

Next Steps
The workshop will ready your development organization to continue to incorporate and realize value from AI via one of the following options, which Slalom will tailor to need:

* Business Case & Pilot to develop the specific business case for bringing AI into your org
* Team Training to get one small development team up and running with AI practices and efficiencies
* Organization Rollout to plan, activate, and implement the adoption of AI tolling across your technology organization.
