Move off ageing software without a big-bang rewrite.
The system still works and still earns. We modernise it in steps you can stop after, keeping what works and replacing what hurts.
How we modernise without breaking you.
Full rewrites fail slowly and expensively. Almost every system can be moved in pieces instead.
What you actually have
Code, data, dependencies and the parts only one person understands, written down before anything changes.
Worst pain first
We replace the piece costing you the most, then reassess. Value arrives early instead of at the end.
Old and new side by side
The new part runs next to the old one until it has proven itself. Switching back stays possible.
Migrated and checked
Migrations are rehearsed on a copy and verified by counts and samples rather than by hoping the import was clean.
Written down as we go
What we learn about your system becomes documentation you keep, which is often the most valuable output.
You can stop between steps
Each step leaves a working system. No half-migrated state that only we can finish.
Straight answers.
Our system is old but it works. Why change it?
Usually because it is getting expensive: security updates are unavailable, nobody left knows it, or every change takes weeks. If none of those are true, the honest advice is to leave it alone, and we will give it.
Can you work with a language you don't list?
For the assessment and the migration, usually yes, because the work is mostly reading and moving data. We'll be plain about it when a system needs a specialist we're not.
How long does this take?
The first step is normally a few weeks and gives you something working. The whole move can run a year or more, which is the point of doing it in pieces you can pause.
What if the original developers are gone?
That's the usual case. We work from the running system and the database when the documentation is missing, which is slower but entirely possible.
