Creating a modern Web user interface from legacy 3270 screens with Virtel Screen Redesigner

---

Presentation

In 2022, Marsh McLennan – the world’s largest insurance broker – used a novel and cost-effective approach to revitalize their mission critical insurance CICS application with a modern Web User Interface (UI), by leveraging:

1. their existing 3270 screens: no changes were made to the underlying CICS application,
2. the infrastructure of their browser-based terminal emulator which already served the 3270 screens as webpages with 3270 TE ergonomics,
3. a visual drag-and-drop IDE which allowed the CICS developers to create the new Web UI without any web development skills. 

In this presentation, a Marsh McLennan representative will provide an overview of the approach and tools, Virtel Screen Redesigner, demonstrate a before/after application flow, and show how the IDE was used to create modern Web UI pages from existing 3270 screens.
