Rescue Missions

15+ projects rescued. We walk into someone else's code (PHP 7, jQuery, legacy .NET — no exceptions), stabilize production in 2-4 weeks, then decide: refactor or parallel rewrite.

FAQ

Questions we answer before you ask them.

Go/rewrite is a separate analysis in the audit phase (3-5 days). We model 3-year TCO for both + business risk (is the system running in production?). 80% of cases: stabilize + iterative refactor. 20%: parallel rewrite with strangler pattern. Full rewrite from scratch = rare, only on a fundamental architecture-vs-requirements mismatch.

Yes, always step one. Bilateral NDA + least-privilege access management. After the audit/project — credentials handed over and our access revoked.

No. We work in the stack we inherit — even PHP 7, jQuery, old Java. That's often the better path (less risk, lower cost). Migration is recommended only when the old stack blocks a specific business requirement.

Phase 1 (stabilization, no new bugs) — 2-4 wks. Phase 2 (refactor + docs) — 2-4 months. Phase 3 (new roadmap) — in parallel or after. Terra ran the full cycle in 5 months. Smaller systems: 4-8 wks.
