What is Adaptive Lifecycle Management?

Adaptive Lifecycle Management (ALM) is our model for organizing ourselves and our processes to sense and adapt to changing customer business needs during the lifecycle of their technology investments.

ALM’s focus on delivering customer outcomes means bringing our people and readiness processes together with a singular purpose: to help customers get more value faster.

ALM means synchronizing our efforts to change the way we conceive, build, manage, and evolve our offers.

Now more than ever, people are key to giving our customers the right outcomes at the right time. By relentlessly adapting and innovating, building expertise and assuming new roles, we can all be vital to evolving customer offers at market speed.

It’s about being relentlessly adaptive
and innovative.

ALM represents a significant transformation and even a cultural shift for Cisco that reflects the increasingly frequent and rapid disruption that our customers are experiencing. However, it’s a positive disruption that creates an exciting new era for Cisco, our partners and our customers. It also requires a fresh mindset.
