Legacy support and migration

Take on an inherited system, stabilise it, and move it forward in steps, without the big-bang rewrite that stalls the business.

What it covers

Taking on a system someone else built, often with little documentation and nobody left who understands it, and making it safe to change again. Then moving it forward in steps rather than stopping the business for a rewrite.

How we work

The first job is to understand what the system actually does, which is rarely what anyone remembers. We get it running locally, put monitoring and backups in place, and add tests around the parts the business depends on. Only then do we start changing things.

From there we replace or upgrade it a piece at a time, with the old and new running side by side where that is safer. Each step is small enough to reverse.

A good fit when

  • The original developer or agency has gone
  • Changes take far longer than they should, or keep breaking something else
  • The system runs on versions that no longer get security fixes
