 Data Migration
 

For most large companies much of the value delivered by the organisation is represented by technical information – its’ intellectual property and a key asset. Today, this information is almost entirely in electronic form. However, business challenges are constantly driving companies to move to new applications in order to support improved business processes. Is this just a matter of selecting a new application?  Far from it…

Valuable legacy information must be migrated. The transition from the existing environment to the new technology is likely to be far more complex, take longer to implement and cost more than originally expected. How can such a potentially complex problem be avoided? Progressive Edge have the skills and experience to help you...

Capabilities

Effective Project management
At Progressive Edge, we understand the complexities of data migration. We adopt an approach which manages project expectation, enables ownership throughout the organisation and achieves success. 
How big is the Problem?
It’s not just a question of how much information.  There are challenges associated with the contents, the systems, the people and the organisation.  Using our expertise we can quickly assess how complex the project is and plan the solution. See our complexity map.
Data Cleansing
A data migration project is an opportunity to perform a valuable and efficient audit on the quality of the data.  Based on our experience, we can help you make this a worthwhile process.
Understanding Data Models
We understand data objects, relationships and lifecycles.  We can help define the data models and map the data translations.  We can look for hidden added value in the migration process, validate information, and suggest the best ways of transferring the technical knowledge.
Migration Strategies
Should it be a “big-bang”, or incremental migration? We have managed them both and understand the advantages and disadvantages of each approach.  We can help you decide which option best meets your requirements.
Migration Management
Once migration is underway we can help you manage the process to ensure that the people are ready for the information at the same time as the information is available to the people.  Being fully aware of the big picture enables us to execute a successful plan.
