01 2 to 3 weeks
Assess
We map the platforms, data, and workflows in scope and take the baseline measures.
Deliverables
- Current state architecture map
- Modernization plan with measures
Service line
Enterprise digital transformation consulting, measured before and after.
Our enterprise digital transformation consulting modernizes legacy platforms, data estates, and engineering workflows, and measures the operational result.
Problems we are called in for
Where modernization programs stall.
-
A legacy platform carries years of audit evidence
Replacing it risks losing the trail your auditors rely on. We plan the migration so the evidence moves with the system.
-
Data lives in many systems, and nobody owns it
Reports disagree because each team keeps its own copy. We consolidate the estate and name an owner for each data set.
-
A program cannot show what it changed
Budget was spent, and nobody measured the starting point. We take the baseline first, so the result is a number, not an opinion.
-
Every release waits on manual steps
Environments and approvals take days. We automate the path to production with the security checks built in.
What we deliver
A plan you can measure, and a migration you can reverse.
- Current state architecture map
- Systems, data flows, owners, and the compliance evidence each one produces.
- Modernization plan with measures
- The sequence of changes, and the operational measure each one must move.
- Migration and rollback runbooks
- How each workload moves, how it is verified, and how it is rolled back.
- Before and after report
- The agreed measures, taken before the change and again after it.
How we work
Four phases, each with named deliverables.
The same four phases as every Desprings engagement, applied to modernization. Durations are defaults, agreed for each engagement.
-
- 02 6 to 10 weeks
Pilot
We move the first workload and measure it against the baseline.
Deliverables
- First workload migrated
- Before and after measures
- 03 4 to 8 weeks
Harden
We close the security review findings and prepare the rest of the estate to move.
Deliverables
- Closed review findings
- Migration and rollback runbooks
- 04 Ongoing
Operate
We run the new platform with your team, or hand it over with everything needed.
Deliverables
- Runbook and handover
- Before and after report
Standards and tooling
The references we work to.
Naming a standard means we use it as a working reference. Our certifications are listed on the Trust Center .
| Reference | What it covers | How we use it |
|---|---|---|
| NIST SSDF (SP 800-218) | Secure software development | Practices for the delivery pipeline |
| OWASP ASVS | Application security verification | Security requirements for rebuilt applications |
| ISO/IEC 25010 | Software product quality | Quality attributes the new platform must meet |
| ISO/IEC 5055 | Automated source code quality measures | Measures legacy code before and after |
Procurement questions
What your team will ask before the first call.
What happens in the first phase?
The first phase is Assess. It runs 2 to 3 weeks by default and ends with a prioritized plan. You decide whether to continue after it.
How do you measure the outcome?
We agree the measures in the Assess phase and take the baseline before anything changes. The before and after report compares the same measures.
How do we keep our compliance evidence through the migration?
The current state architecture map records the evidence each system produces, and the migration plan keeps that evidence available through the change.
Which standards do you work to?
NIST SSDF (SP 800-218), OWASP ASVS, ISO/IEC 25010, and ISO/IEC 5055, used as working references. Naming a standard is not a claim of certification against it.
What do we receive at exit or handover?
The runbooks for each migrated workload and the before and after report, so your team can run and extend the platform without us.
Bring us the program your team is worried about.
