Evolving Legacy and Modernisation
With a sound strategy and well-understood domain models at hand, what rests is turning that into working software.
Our value is bringing immediate expertise into your engineering team to evolve your legacy systems. We first study the system, to understand how it works. Together we pull it apart and untangle the complexity, ensuring we isolate risk as we move. In the process we learn more about the system, how it operates, how it relates to other parts. We work to evolve the system into one which is malleable and maintainable, enabling teams to move faster, without major delay or risk.
Our consultants live and breath models. Their focus on domain modelling and translating these models into working software ensures the heart of your system is high-quality and preserves model integrity.
Types of pains our customers have:
Strong business growth is stretching the capacity of teams. Beyond the delivery of features, there is a lack of structured effort to address longer-term issues.
Touching parts of the legacy systems significantly slows down teams.
Team members report long-standing bugs but there isn’t a process to address them.
The organisational structure that served the company well during its early years is now causing issues and is no longer fit for purpose.
Teams are spread thinly, working on multiple services, leading to a lack of deep domain knowledge and understanding of the user’s problems.
Gaps in software design expertise and seniority are causing issues with process, team morale, and delivery.
Learnings from external trainings are not folded into current projects due to a lack of time and uncertainty about the complexity of the systems.
