The challenge
A desktop application built years ago can't be deployed to new machines, is hard to support remotely, and locks the business to old operating systems.
The solution
A modern web-based replacement built around the same business logic, with role-based access, audit trail and a phased rollout per team or process.
Business benefit
No more deployment headaches, supportable from anywhere and a foundation for further improvements.

- Web replacement of core desktop screens
- Role-based access and audit trail
- Phased rollout per team or process
- Data migration with parallel run
- Integration with current ERP and accounting
How it works
- 1Existing application is analysed and prioritised by feature
- 2Web replacement is built and validated against real data
- 3Teams are migrated in waves with parallel run
- 4Legacy desktop is decommissioned
