What leaders see
Reports disagree about current conditions.
Teams debate demand, workload, capacity, inventory, service, delivery, and margin instead of acting on them.
Manufacturing · Legacy Modernization · Data Migration
Move manufacturing history without losing control of what the records mean. Customer, product, supplier, BOM, routing, inventory, quality, pricing, and transaction history require more than row counts. We cleanse, transform, reconcile, and validate the records against defined business rules and accountable owners.
01
The Problem
Analytics problems begin when a dashboard is built before records, definitions, timing, lineage, and accountability have been reconciled across the operation.
What leaders see
Teams debate demand, workload, capacity, inventory, service, delivery, and margin instead of acting on them.
What is actually happening
Sources, identifiers, definitions, refresh timing, adjustments, and ownership differ across systems and teams.
What gets worse
More dashboards spread inconsistent measures and make exception ownership harder to establish.

What Changes

Profile the tables, fields, relationships, volumes, and formats in scope. Identify quality issues and transformation requirements before migration begins.
Define field-by-field mappings between legacy and target systems. Handle format conversions, code translations, concatenations, and business rule transformations.
Fix quality issues during migration -- standardize addresses, deduplicate customers, resolve orphaned records, and fill missing required fields with governed defaults.
Use record counts, checksums, relationship tests, exception reports, and business-rule validation to reconcile source and destination before acceptance.
Migrate historical data in advance, then incrementally sync changes during the transition period. Minimize cutover window and reduce go-live risk.
Define fallback conditions and recovery procedures for each migration stage. When validation fails, stop progression, resolve the cause, and repeat the affected step from a controlled state.

Analyze source data volumes, quality, formats, and relationships. Produce a data quality report with issues ranked by severity and migration impact.
Design field-by-field mappings with transformation rules. Review with business stakeholders to validate that mappings preserve business meaning.
Build extraction, transformation, and loading pipelines. Automated, repeatable, and version-controlled -- not manual copy-paste.
Run full-volume test migrations against a non-production target. Validate record counts, data accuracy, and business rule compliance.
Execute the production migration with active monitoring, validation checkpoints, and rollback readiness. Verify the agreed records and business scenarios before declaring success.

FAQ
Straight answers to what manufacturing leaders ask before committing budget to this work.
We categorize issues by severity: critical (blocks migration), major (requires business decision), and minor (automated fix). Critical and major issues are resolved before migration. Minor issues are fixed in-flight with documented rules.
