System migrations are complex tasks and often constitute a high business risk should a system outage occur for any reason.

We measure the success of our migration service in terms of the number of people who notice. With the exception of speed, in most cases, end users have no idea they are actually using a different system to the one they had previously. Using methods and processes developed over a number of years this is something we are confident in achieving every time.

There are a number of different processes used to migrate a system including the following:

One stage migration
This service takes you from the source system to the target system in one step.

One stage + OS/400 upgrade 
This service is for those customers who are migrating to a system that requires a more recent release of OS/400 in order to be fully operational. 

Two stage
This service is for those customers that want to test the target system before they commit to going live with it.

Two stage + OS/400 upgrade 
This service is for those customers that want to test their target system before going live and are migrating to a system that requires a more recent release of OS/400 in order to be fully operational.

In most cases the source system remains intact and provides a fall back position should an unforeseen problem, preventing the system from going live, occur. However, in situations where hardware has also been migrated and the source system is not functional, the on-site consultant will re-engineer the source system replacing the migrated features and using the full system saves recover the source system back to an operational status.
