A process with a paper trail.

Seven gates. Each one produces an artifact you keep, whether or not the next phase ever happens.

What lands at each gate.

Delivery Gate Pipeline
Gate 01 Inspected
  1. Tangible Artifacts Delivered at Gate 01:Zero ambiguous WIP
    Repository ownership & IAM bootstrap in your cloud tenant
    Cryptographic root-of-trust & branch protection invariant matrix
    Baseline threat model & external perimeter attack surface audit
    Clean CI/CD provenance gate with signed container build targets
    Client Independence Invariant

    You own the repository, encryption keys, and environment unconditionally from day one.

    Contractual InvariantUnconditional

Reference designs, not case studies.

How we would approach three problems that come up often. No client’s numbers appear here, because none of these is a client’s system.

Dynamics 365 · Salesforce · your databases

Two-way sync between a CRM, an ERP and your databases

A record changed in one system arrives once, in order, in the others. When a delivery fails it is parked for someone to review, not dropped.

Four stagesStage 01 of 04 Processing
ACTIVE
Node 01

Change capture

Webhooks and change-data capture
HTTPS / TLS 1.3

Picks up changes from Dynamics 365 and Salesforce platform events as they happen.

Node 02

Buffer and schema check

Durable message queue
TLS, authenticated

Removes duplicates, rejects payloads that break the agreed schema, and holds changes until they are applied.

Node 03

Transformation

Stateless workers
Internal service calls

Maps each system’s objects onto one shared model, so a customer means the same thing everywhere.

Node 04

Delivery

REST and OData adapters
HTTPS

Writes the change to the target system or database, retrying with backoff.

When something fails
After repeated timeouts a change moves to a dead-letter queue for review instead of retrying forever.
Every payload carries a checksum, so a corrupted message is rejected rather than applied.
Schema changes stay backward-compatible, so one system can upgrade before the other.

Three shapes, priced differently.

Procurement asks this before it asks about capability, and most firms never answer it in public.

Fixed scope, fixed pricePriced after gate 03, once the architecture and the integration inventory exist. Right when the outcome is known and the budget has to be approved before work starts.
Dedicated teamA named team, billed monthly, working from your backlog. Right when the direction is clear but the scope will keep moving, and you want the same people for long enough that they learn your domain.
Embedded engineersOur engineers inside your team and your process, reporting to your leads. Right when you have the direction and the management capacity, and need throughput rather than a vendor.

What we are held to.

Every other line on this site describes how we work. These four are commitments, and they go in the contract.

You can fire us without a migration project.

Everything we build is deployable by your own team: source in a repository you control from day one, infrastructure as code, an SBOM per release, and a runbook written for someone who has never met us. The handover terms are in the contract from the start, not negotiated at the end.
