THE SQUADRA, technology consulting specialized in supporting companies in their digital transformation journeys, announces the launch of Genius, a multipurpose platform driven by Artificial Intelligence (AI) and developed to optimize the workflow and accelerate the development cycle of platforms and digital solutions that the company creates for customers. With investment of R$ 20 million, with support from BNDES, Genius brings a structured, integrated, safe approach and focused on generating value for the core of the customer business in various sectors, such as financial, telecommunications, utilities, logistics, among others. Joining advanced technology and human experience, Genius offers the complexity of the collaborative business projects.

In a collaborative and self-guided way, the platform conducts multiple projects simultaneously, such as creating modern solutions, modularizing systems with evolutionary architecture, reducing the complexity of applications, among others, integrating different user profiles, such as designers, developers, architects and managers, and creating a conversational digital environment that organizes and accelerates the improvement of the digital ecosystem of the business.

The solution will be used on different fronts and is already driving legacy systems modernization projects carried out by SQUADRA through Legacy Modernization by Genius, which uses intelligent tools to extract value from legacy applications of organizations, document the implicit knowledge of these systems and reintegrate it in a useful, accessible and modern way into new applications.

“Many companies today were born in the digital world, but most still live under the pressure of legacy and avoid moving these assets for fear of operational failures, which also prevents the innovation”, says Romulo Cioffi, Executive Director of Artificial Intelligence, Innovation and Operations at SQUADRA. According to the executive, the decision to start the application of Genius in the modernization of legacies is based on the high degree of criticality and complexity of these systems. “ We are offering a safe and efficient way for technological modernization, which sustains the growth of corporations, updating technologies, reorganizing the structure of applications and maintaining the business rules preserved in relation to the gain of productivity 13 to 4.

Through a structured process of semantic analysis, Legacy Modernization by Genius maps the entire legacy ecosystem of companies, identifying where improvements can be applied, and delivers responses adhering to the core of the customer's business, boosting accuracy in processes and decisions, reducing errors and raising the quality of the results of the initiative under development. Each project generates a set of updated digital information that serves as a basis for future evolutions, providing systemic knowledge to become reusable assets to reorganize complex architectures and make them simpler. All this while maintaining the business logic intact, and internal, updated, governed and secure 100% data.

Legacy Modernization by Genius uses its network of specialized intelligent tools, which operate together, to accelerate migration to more modern environments and applications with precision. Among the features are automated code analysis, which identifies obsolete snippets and points of improvement; the extraction of business rules, which recovers the implicit knowledge that underpins critical processes; the automated generation of tests and simulations, ensuring that changes do not compromise the operation; and code refactoring, which reorganizes and simplifies complex stretches without changing its original function.

In addition, the solution also relies on the analysis of dependencies, including modules, functions, services and data that need to be integrated during execution, in addition to generating technical documentation. With a high degree of customization per customer, these tools are configured and created specifically according to the technology of each organization. With the solution, SQUADRA promotes hyperproductivity through the automation of repetitive tasks, process optimization and intelligent use of resources, providing more operational efficiency, lower cost, greater speed in delivery and more reliability.

Legacy Modernization by Genius is already being used in several projects. In the logistics segment, for example, SQUADRA used the solution to perform an in-depth analysis of the legacy system responsible for managing the circulation of trains of a customer. The solution was essential to explore the existing code with advanced features such as semantic analysis. With this, it was possible to identify in an agile way the main concepts, flows and operational rules, leaving the team fully prepared to safely and accurately perform the migration to a more modern environment. This approach accelerated the understanding of the legacy, optimizing the analysis time and allowing greater clarity in the planning of the migration, allowing the generation of code that would be carried out in six months to be carried out in 3.

“We believe that Artificial Intelligence only makes sense when applied with purpose, directed by a real business problem and not by technological fads.That is why we follow the principle of Value First, powered by AI’, guiding our decisions with a focus on impact and concrete value”, says Alcobiades Araujo, AI Specialist at SQUADRA.

Inclusion and speed: the Brazil-Asia e-commerce revolution The growth of e-commerce in Brazil has been remarkable, driven by a combination of factors including increased internet penetration, the rise of mobile technology, and a growing middle class with higher disposable income. However, the relationship between Brazil and Asia in the e-commerce space is particularly fascinating, marked by rapid innovation, strategic partnerships, and a focus on inclusion. **Inclusion: Bridging the Digital Divide** One of the most significant aspects of the e-commerce revolution in Brazil is its potential to bridge the digital divide. In a country with vast geographical disparities, e-commerce offers a unique opportunity to reach underserved populations. By leveraging technology, companies can extend their reach to remote areas, providing access to goods and services that were previously unavailable. Asian e-commerce giants like Alibaba and JD.com have been instrumental in this regard. Through partnerships with Brazilian firms, these companies have introduced innovative solutions tailored to the local market. For instance, Alibaba’s AliExpress has made significant inroads in Brazil, offering a wide range of products at competitive prices. Similarly, JD.com has collaborated with local logistics providers to ensure efficient delivery, even in hard-to-reach areas. **Speed: The Race to Deliver** Speed is another critical factor in the Brazil-Asia e-commerce dynamic. Consumers today expect fast delivery, and companies are rising to the challenge. The competition to offer the quickest delivery times has led to the adoption of advanced technologies and logistics strategies. One notable example is the use of drone delivery. Both Brazilian and Asian companies are exploring this technology to enhance delivery speed and reach. For instance, JD.com has been testing drone deliveries in rural areas of China, and similar initiatives are being considered in Brazil. This not only speeds up delivery but also reduces costs associated with traditional logistics. Additionally, the implementation of automated warehouses and robotics has revolutionized the fulfillment process. Companies like Magalu (formerly Magazine Luiza) in Brazil have invested heavily in automation to improve efficiency and reduce delivery times. These technologies are often inspired by or directly imported from Asian e-commerce leaders, highlighting the cross-pollination of ideas and innovations. **Strategic Partnerships and Collaborations** The Brazil-Asia e-commerce relationship is also characterized by strategic partnerships and collaborations. These alliances are crucial for navigating the complexities of the global market and leveraging each other’s strengths. For example, Brazilian e-commerce platform B2W has partnered with Chinese payment giant Alipay to facilitate cross-border transactions. This collaboration not only simplifies the payment process for consumers but also opens up new markets for Brazilian sellers. Similarly, partnerships between Brazilian logistics companies and Asian tech firms have led to the development of more efficient supply chain solutions. **Conclusion** The e-commerce revolution between Brazil and Asia is a testament to the power of technology in driving economic growth and social inclusion. By focusing on inclusion and speed, both regions are setting new standards in the global e-commerce landscape. As this relationship continues to evolve, it promises to bring about even more innovative solutions and opportunities for consumers and businesses alike.
