What We Do
Four paths. One starting point: your problem.
We don't lead with service categories. Every engagement starts with a conversation about what's not working, then we figure out together which path fits.
Path 01
“Our software is costing us more than it saves us.”
Modernize
Most legacy systems don't fail catastrophically — they erode. Maintenance costs climb. Changes that used to take days take months. The two people who understood the original code have moved on. The business keeps running, but the software is now the bottleneck.
We replace the platform. Not the business logic — the infrastructure underneath it. You get a modern, maintainable system on the current Microsoft stack, delivered in phases so operations never stop.
Legacy stacks we work with
VB6, Classic ASP, .NET 1.1 and 2.0, WinForms, WPF, ASP.NET WebForms, SharePoint 2001–2013, SQL Server 2000 and up, SOAP, XSLT, XAML. If it was built in the last thirty years, we have probably been inside it.
What you get at the end
A running platform on a modern Microsoft stack — Azure, React, Azure SQL, or whatever the right combination is for your situation. Full documentation. A DevOps pipeline. A team that can maintain it.
Path 02
“We need the cloud but we can't just flip a switch.”
Migrate
Moving to the cloud is not a single event. For most businesses, it's a multi-year effort that has to happen alongside everything else — no downtime windows, no tolerance for a failed cutover, no appetite for a two-year project that delivers nothing until the end.
We design phased migrations to Azure that move workloads in stages you can control. Each phase delivers something real. The business runs the entire time.
How we approach it
- —Application Intelligence Assessment first — understand what you have before we move anything
- —Identify which workloads move first based on risk, dependency, and business value
- —Phase the migration so production is never at risk
- —Hand off with documentation and a team that can manage the new environment
Path 03
“We need new features without breaking what works.”
Extend
Not every system needs to be replaced. Sometimes the core is sound — the business logic is right, the data is clean, and the users know how to use it. What's missing is capability: a new audience to serve, a modern interface, a feature that the old platform simply cannot support.
We build what's missing without touching what works. Hybrid development across cloud and on-premise, bridging the gap between an existing platform and the capabilities the business needs next.
A real example
A professional services firm had a platform built for internal users. The business wanted to open it to external audiences, but the platform wasn't designed for it. We rebuilt the presentation layer in React, moved authentication to Azure AD B2C, and migrated the data to Azure SQL — while internal users kept working throughout. When it launched, they got a better product. External users could access the platform for the first time.
Path 04
“Our systems don't talk to each other.”
Connect
Data silos are expensive. Someone downloads a file, moves it to a folder, triggers a process, and hopes nothing breaks. It works until it doesn't — and when it doesn't, no one knows why.
Your people should not be your integration layer.
The pattern we remove every time
Manual hand-offs between systems — file downloads, folder drops, triggered services, emailed reports — are integration debt. They exist because the systems never talked directly, and someone built a workaround. We replace the workaround with a real connection.
Three integrations we've built
Event-driven / real-time push
Before
A partner sends a file. Someone downloads it manually, drops it in a specific folder, then hand-triggers an SSIS package to process it. If any step is missed or done wrong, the process fails silently.
After
An Azure webhook gives the partner a secure push endpoint. An Azure Function receives the file, validates it, and writes to the database. No manual steps. No silent failures.
Scheduled batch pull
Before
Someone manually downloads files from an SFTP server each day, places them in a specific folder, then manually starts a Windows Service to process them. The whole process depends on one person doing it right, every day.
After
A scheduled Azure Web Job connects to the SFTP server on a defined interval, pulls any new data since the last run, and loads it to Azure SQL. Fully unattended.
Standards-based B2B integration
Common in manufacturing & financial servicesBefore
BizTalk Server handles EDI messages from trading partners — purchase orders, advance ship notices, invoices. The licensing runs six figures annually. It's poorly documented, specialist-dependent, and every change is a surgical event.
After
Azure Logic Apps handles the same EDIFACT messages, transforms them to the internal format, and writes to data stores. Consumption-based pricing. Cloud-native. Documented for the client's own team to maintain.
After the build
We don't hand off and disappear.
Every engagement ends with a team that can own what we built. That means documentation written for the people who will actually use it, not the people who built it. It means training. It means a DevOps pipeline that your team can operate. And it means we're available if something comes up after we leave.
Documentation
Written for your team, not for us. Architecture, decisions, operating procedures.
Training
Your people learn the system before we leave. Not a one-hour overview — actual working knowledge.
DevOps pipeline
CI/CD set up and running. Deployments your team can own and operate independently.
Post-launch support
Available after delivery. If something comes up in the weeks that follow, we're reachable.
Not sure which path fits?
Most engagements start with a conversation, not a scoped project. Tell us what you're dealing with and we'll tell you what we've seen.
