BOVU
Legacy .NET · Survey → Rebuild → Operate
The old system still runs the business. Nobody knows how.
We map it, plan it, rebuild it — and keep it running.

How it goes
Design to DevOps, in five stages.
01
Survey
Map the code, data, dependencies and risks. Fixed price, 1–2 weeks.
02
Plan
Phased roadmap with costs. Board-ready, no commitment.
03
Design
Architecture, data model, UI for the screens people actually use.
04
Build
Migrate module by module. Old system stays live throughout.
05
Operate
Pipelines, monitoring, handover docs. Or we keep running it.
What you get
A system you can sleep through the night with.
Structured logging
Every request traceable. No more guessing what failed at 2am.
Bugs caught early
Automated tests on the critical paths. Regressions fail the build, not the client.
One-click deploys
Repeatable pipelines with rollback. Releases stop being an event.
Security current
Supported versions, patched dependencies, secrets out of the source tree.
Written-down knowledge
Architecture, data model, runbooks. The system outlives whoever built it.
Backups that restore
Tested recovery, not just a nightly job nobody has ever verified.
A named response time
Retainer clients get an agreed window. No queue, no ticket lottery.
Selected work
Before, after.
Distribution · ~40 staff
Nightly job failed silently. No logging. Nobody could change pricing rules.
Traced, tested, migrated. Their own staff edit pricing in hours.
Manufacturing · ~120 staff
WinForms on 60 machines. Remote sites unusable. Failed a security review.
API + web front end. No per-machine installs, DB access locked down.
Professional services · ~25 staff
Board approved a full rebuild without knowing what the system did.
Two-week survey cut the rebuild to two modules. Rest upgraded in place.
Clock's running
Support deadlines.
