Migration & Modernization
Upgrade legacy systems safely with staged planning, rollback paths, and zero surprise on cutovers that already carry examiner, public, or revenue pressure.
Operational Support
Senior Linux expertise without adding internal headcount. Available for projects, retainers, and emergency engagements.
Production-Schedule Patching
Maintenance planned around shift and line schedules, so a security update never stops a run.
Plant Floor to ERP
The Linux layer between OT systems and enterprise ERP kept stable, monitored, and understood end to end.
