I WANT TO…
If a 20-year-old Access app, or an old .NET tool, or an IVS / BBF system, still runs your business, you’re ahead of most. The hard work (capturing how your business operates) is already done. We bring it forward, without making you start over.
THE TRUTH ABOUT YOUR OLD APP
Every business we work with has one, the spreadsheet, the Access database, the in-house .NET app, that quietly runs a core part of the operation. It works. The team trusts it. But the person who built it retired in 2017, and nobody wants to touch it.
Most providers will tell you to rip it out and start again. That’s expensive, disruptive, and risky, and it usually loses the very understanding of your business that made the app valuable in the first place.
A typical legacy modernisation runs in four phases. You stay running the whole time.
We sit with the people who use the app, map what it does and what's painful, then come back with an honest recommendation, keep, modernise or rebuild.
Years of business rules are baked into your old app. We document them properly, with your team's input, so they survive the move forward.
Modern stack, .NET, web, mobile, cloud-ready. AI tooling means we move much faster than a traditional rebuild, so the price stays sensible.
Old and new run side-by-side until you're confident. Your team is trained on the new app before the old one is switched off.
The core capability, extracting your business rules, then rebuilding on a modern, supportable stack.

Anthony Harper's Villageinfonet (VIN) platform started life as a single Microsoft Access database. Over two decades, ACIT evolved it, through multiple Access databases, then unified into Microsoft SQL with web access, 2FA and onshore hosting. Today VIN is the benchmark tool for New Zealand's retirement village ORA process.
