This QuickStart provides a framework for the successful implementation of
ASG-Existing Systems Workbench (ESW) suite for the identification and elimination
of programmatic anomalies and unused functionality in legacy applications.
Meeting this objective will assist in improving maintenance productivity and
reducing future program defects. ASG consultants will work with your
project team to establish and execute the steps needed to begin using the ASG-ESW suite
for maintenance simplification in your environment.
