Let's talkBRUSSELS, Belgium, June 2026 – Stefanini Group, a global tech consulting company with an AI-first mindset, and INSEAD Business School announced today the expansion of their partnership through the Stefanini Technology business unit, following the achievement of top industry benchmarks for application modernization.
Stefanini Technology leveraged a cross-functional global delivery team to modernize the business school’s legacy systems, improving the experience of students and empowering future growth opportunities.
Elite software delivery performance
By modernizing applications and taking the routine maintenance burden off the INSEAD team, Stefanini Technology achieved an overall DevOps Research and Assessment (DORA) score in the elite tier, with 2.8 software deployments a month and a change failure rate below 15% — a top-20% industry benchmark for software delivery performance.
These improvements also reduced aging incidents from outdated on-premises infrastructure by 30% and led to 35% faster software release cycles. Overall, this modernization program led to 99.7% uptime across more than 20 platforms.
Seven years of partnership
“These impressive results speak to our commitment to co-creating world-class tech solutions with our clients that align with their business objectives and enable strategic growth,” said Farlei Kothe, CEO for Stefanini’s North America, Europe and Asia Pacific region. “We are proud to provide the highest level of service in the industry and deliver meaningful results for trusted partners like INSEAD.”
