Overview
Lift-and-shift usually reproduces the old problems on someone else's hardware and adds a bigger bill. We design the landing zone first — accounts, networking, identity, tagging, guardrails — so that cost attribution and audit evidence are properties of the platform rather than a later project.
Then workloads move in waves, with each wave proving a class of problem before the next one starts.
What we actually fix
Three problems, in the words clients use when they describe them to us.
The problem
“We moved to cloud and the bill went up.”
What we do
Tagging and account structure that attributes every dollar to a team, plus rightsizing and commitment planning as part of the migration rather than after it.
Result
−38% cost
The problem
“The regulator rejected our last cloud plan twice.”
What we do
Data residency, encryption, and evidence collection designed into the landing zone, with the control mapping written for the auditor to read.
Result
0 findings
The problem
“Nobody knows what half these servers do.”
What we do
Dependency discovery before the wave plan, so the things nobody understands get assessed rather than migrated blind.
Result
11 mo programme
What you get
Accounts, networking, identity, and guardrails before a single workload moves.
Tagging enforced by policy, so every dollar has an owner.
Control mapping and evidence collection built in, not assembled at review time.
Each wave proves a class of problem before the next begins.
The servers nobody understands get assessed, not migrated blind.
Managed service or full handover with runbooks — decided before cutover.
How we work
Durations are medians. Your assessment turns them into dates.
Two weeks inside your current environment with the people who run it, not a questionnaire.
Target state and a sequence that proves the risky parts first, signed off before build.
Increments demonstrated to your process owners every two weeks rather than reported on.
Handover with runbooks, or transition to our managed service against a written SLA.
Proof
A cloud programme had stalled twice on the regulator’s data-residency and evidence requirements.

They gave us a fixed go-live date in week two and hit it. What I actually valued was that the handover documentation was good enough that my team ran the second plant rollout themselves.

FAQ
Whichever your organisation can actually operate. We hold Advanced tier on AWS and Solutions Partner on Microsoft, and the selection review names the trade-offs for your specific workloads and skills. If the honest answer is "stay where you are for these three systems", we will say that.
It goes down in nine cases out of ten, by a median of 38% in year one, but only because rightsizing and commitment planning are part of the migration. A lift-and-shift with no rightsizing usually costs more, which is why we do not sell one.
The wave plan produces that date in the design phase. Typically the last wave lands three to five months before the lease or hardware refresh you are trying to avoid, deliberately.
Some genuinely cannot, and the assessment says so early. Those get a connectivity and lifecycle plan rather than a migration, and we do not bill you to move something that should not move.
