Replacing decades of legacy systems without losing the business logic they hold

15+ yearsof ongoing partnership
RPG/ColdFusion → Java + Reactmodernization path
Phased transformationdelivery approach

Starting point

The platform ran on a combination of legacy RPG, ColdFusion, and Java technologies. Maintenance costs were high, and the organization was increasingly dependent on scarce expertise in aging technologies.

Context

The fragmented architecture didn't just cost more to maintain - it limited scalability, slowed down modernization efforts, and made it harder to integrate with modern digital channels and partners.

Solution

The embedded team led a phased transformation: replacing legacy RPG and ColdFusion components with scalable Java microservices, and introducing a modern React-based frontend. Decades of embedded business logic were preserved throughout, while the team also supported the organization's adoption of Agile and DevOps practices.

Outcome

Technical/organizational: Legacy systems are now on a structured, planned path to decommissioning, replaced by a scalable Java and React-based foundation.  achievements/milestones].
Business: The platform is positioned for future growth and integration with external FinTech partners, with a foundation set to improve system performance and user productivity going forward.
