What leaders see
Packaged tools do not fit the required work.
Teams rely on workarounds because standard products cannot represent a critical workflow, rule, interface, or decision.

Cloud Migration and Modernization
Keep the business running while the infrastructure changes. Moving ERP, integration, analytics, portal, and custom manufacturing workloads must improve resilience and control without interrupting the people and partners who depend on them. We map operating impact first, then sequence architecture, migration, validation, cutover, and ownership.
01
The Problem
Infrastructure risk becomes business risk.
Custom-software problems begin when the operation has a real capability gap but has not separated what should be configured, integrated, modernized, purchased, or deliberately owned in code.
What is actually happening
The durable requirement is not isolated.
Business rules, legacy dependencies, integration boundaries, user needs, and support ownership remain mixed together.
What gets worse
Every workaround becomes a software dependency.
Uncontrolled customizations accumulate without architecture, testing, documentation, or a maintainable change path.
02
What Changes
What Cloud Migration and Modernization includes.
Moving ERP, integration, analytics, portal, and custom manufacturing workloads must improve resilience and control without interrupting the people and partners who depend on them. We map operating impact first, then sequence architecture, migration, validation, cutover, and ownership.
01
Cloud Architecture Design
Design cloud architecture around your specific workloads — ERP, WMS, file servers, databases, and custom applications. Right-sized from day one.
02
Migration Planning
Dependency mapping, migration sequencing, cutover planning, and rollback procedures. Every application gets a migration strategy: rehost, refactor, or replace.
03
Data Migration
Secure data migration with integrity validation at every stage. Database replication, file system migration, and archive strategy for historical data.
04
Security & Compliance
Cloud security architecture with IAM, encryption, network segmentation, backup, and disaster recovery. Designed for SOC 2, ITAR, CMMC, and industry-specific compliance.
05
Cost Optimization
Right-sized instances, reserved capacity planning, auto-scaling policies, and ongoing cost monitoring. Cloud should cost less than on-premise, not more.
06
Managed Operations
Post-migration monitoring, patching, backup validation, and incident response. Your team focuses on the business while we keep the infrastructure running.
03
How It Fits Your Operations
How Cloud Migration and Modernization fits your operation.
Custom Software EngineeringWhat gap is worth owning in custom code, what can remain standard, and how the capability will be supported and changed.
Governance dependencyCustom software is warranted only when a documented manufacturing capability cannot be delivered cleanly through existing products, configuration, or a smaller integration.
Capability the operation requires
operating rules
system interfaces
user decisions
exceptions
support and change history
What must be defined before engineering begins
- What the business needs to change and why.
- Which systems, records, risks, and readiness gaps shape the work.
- What should be built, how it fits the architecture, and in what order.

Define the smallest sound response and delivery sequence.
Metrotechs determines what the operation actually requires before selecting technology. When a structured assessment is warranted, Launchpad turns evidence into priorities, risks, architecture, and an implementation Roadmap.
Metrotechs designs, builds, integrates, and supports the approved solution.
Launchpad is available when the engagement needs assessment evidence, a Roadmap, and ongoing delivery governance.

Moving ERP, integration, analytics, portal, and custom manufacturing workloads must improve resilience and control without interrupting the people and partners who depend on.
01
Assessment
Inventory all on-premise systems, map dependencies, and define migration priorities based on business impact and technical readiness.
02
Architecture
Design target cloud architecture with networking, security, compute, storage, and DR. Present cost model and migration timeline.
03
Pilot Migration

FAQ
Questions that usually decide the scope.
Straight answers to what operators ask before committing budget to this work.
We design cloud environments around the workloads, data, recovery needs, and governance model the business has to own. ERP implementations may use dedicated instances, managed databases, or hybrid architectures that keep sensitive workloads on-premise while moving others to cloud.
