Technology consulting: architecture, modernisation and automation strategy
Sometimes the right first step is not to build anything. We review what you have, find where time and money are being lost, and give you a plan you can act on, with us or without us.
Is this you?
Signs it is time
- An ageing system that nobody dares to touch
- A large software decision to make, and conflicting advice
- A sense that a lot could be automated, and no idea where to start
- A project that has stalled or run over
How we do it
Architecture, modernization, automation strategy, and technology planning.
We read the code and the architecture, talk to the people who use the system, and write down what we find in plain language: what is sound, what is risky, and what to do first.
For automation, we rank the candidates by how much time they would give back, so the first project pays for the second.
If buying a product is a better answer than building one, we say so. The recommendation is yours to take to any vendor.

Common questions
What do we get at the end?
A written assessment and a prioritised plan: what to fix, what to automate first and why, and what each step would involve.
Will you just recommend that we hire you to build?
No. Build, buy or integrate is an honest question, and sometimes the answer is to buy. The recommendation is written so you can take it to any vendor.
Can you review a system someone else built?
Yes. Architecture and code reviews of existing systems are part of this service.
