01

The problem this solves

With the original developers gone, even a routine release feels like a gamble. We return the application to a workable state: running on a laptop, dependency versions pinned, smoke tests in place, credentials lifted out of version control and the route to production written down. Automated analysis builds the inventory quickly while an engineer checks each finding before it enters the report. You also get a frank read on what deserves to survive, with cost ranges attached.

02

What you receive

  1. A local development environment on a container runtime, plus a written setup guide
  2. Audit of dependency and framework versions, with a route to upgrade
  3. Smoke tests across sign-in and the five journeys that matter most
  4. Credentials lifted out of version control into environment configuration
  5. The release process written up end to end, including how to roll back
  6. Risk register scoring severity, effort and estimated cost for each entry
  7. Recorded walkthrough of the architecture for your engineers

03

What changes afterwards

Your engineers can run and modify the application without guesswork

Security holes that were sitting in plain sight get closed

The rebuild question answered with evidence instead of frustration

04

Is it the right fit?

Ideal for

  • Companies unable to reach the developer or agency that built the system
  • Applications running on framework versions that passed end of life
  • Founders deciding whether to maintain what exists or start again

What we need from you

  • Complete repository access, plus credentials for production or staging
  • Sixty minutes with anyone who recalls the reasoning behind past decisions
  • A database connection, or a sanitised dump for us to restore

05

Before you buy

Yes. It is in Indian rupees with 18% GST included, and it is exactly what you pay at checkout. Nothing is added afterwards for the scope listed on this page.

The working days are counted from the day we hold your payment, the completed brief and everything listed under “What we need from you”. If an input arrives late, the handover date moves by the same number of days.

Ask before you buy. We will confirm in writing whether it sits inside this scope, point you to a better-fitting service, or tell you it needs separate work.

On full payment, the code, configuration, designs and documents produced for this service belong to your organisation, as set out in our Terms.

Each unit repeats the listed scope once. It does not stretch a single unit to cover more.
