What Makes These Transformations Different?

Traditional legacy modernization projects often fail or significantly overrun budgets and timelines. These success stories demonstrate a fundamentally different approach:

Start With Business Logic Discovery: Creating an atlas of your application’s business logic, providing both an overview of what you’re dealing with and the ability to drill down into every detail. Based on what is actually used while the system operates. Focusing on what matters: the business logic you need to preserve, not the technical debt or unused features you can leave behind.

Verify Functional Equivalence: The Executable Specification provides you with a system implementing the discovered business logic. Validate through a parallel run or large scale testing that it has equivalent functionality to your original system.

Transform: Use the Executable Specification as a direct replacement, as a blueprint to forward-engineer a new solution, or as a guide to evolve your existing system. Whichever path you choose, proceed with solid understanding of what you need to preserve.

Low-Risk Progression: Approach the transformation in steps. After each step, use the understanding and confidence gained to decide how to proceed. No big bets. Gaining speed on the way. Avoiding risks to your operational business by not changing processes and products in the same step as your system.

Reduce Risk Proactively: Don’t wait for a crisis. Gain confidence that you understand your systems and can transform them when needed. Build the capability to modernize before you’re forced to, when you still have options and time to do it right.

Technology Agnostic: Discover business logic from any source technology. Map it onto a target platform you need. And then start implementing new functionality on your new platform, at speeds rivaling startups.
