# Software rescue & care

A considered next chapter for existing software.

## A good fit when

A useful product is difficult to change, unreliable or missing a clear technical owner.

## Consider another route when

The underlying product need has disappeared; retiring it may be more sensible than rebuilding.

## What we can deliver

A technical assessment, prioritised repairs, migration plans and a documented handover.

## How we approach it

We establish access, backups and a reproducible setup before touching live behaviour. Then reduce the largest business risks first.

## What shapes the scope

Code condition, test coverage, dependencies, data movement and service continuity determine the work.
