Our Approach
We follow a 4-step approach to assess your business case and deliver a workable roadmap.
Application Modernization Assessment
With the “ Application Modernization ” Assessment (application modernization assessment), you’ll know which path is right for each application. SUE analyzes your code using Re:App and delivers a Modernization Plan within 5 business days: the architecture, the risks, the path for each application, and a phased roadmap. The assessment is free.
Legacy to Future
Are you ready to modernize?
Not sure where to start with your modernization project? Our experts bring clarity to complexity. We help you set clear goals, prioritize, and build a roadmap toward your ideal setup. Instead of a one-size-fits-all approach, we focus on what works best for your organization. Whether that means reducing technical debt, improving scalability, or increasing maintainability, we focus on what delivers the most value with the least effort.
Why an Application Modernization Assessment?
Modernizing monolithic applications can be difficult, both technically and culturally. Think of dependencies in the infrastructure, security issues, or a skills gap. Our highly skilled experts help you avoid common pitfalls. They provide clarity and direction when modernizing your application and infrastructure, while minimizing the risk of business disruption.
01
Assessment and Goals
We start by understanding your business objectives and current application landscape. We identify key bottlenecks, technical debt, and performance challenges, and ensure that your modernization efforts align with your long-term goals.
02
Architecture and Performance Analysis
Our experts assess your application architecture, infrastructure, dependencies, and performance bottlenecks. We evaluate cloud readiness, scalability, security risks, and operational efficiency to determine the best modernization approach.
03
Priorities and Strategy
Based on our findings, we define a clear modernization roadmap. We prioritize initiatives based on business impact, cost, and complexity—whether that means rehosting, refactoring, rearchitecting, or replacing components.
04
A Workable Roadmap and Next Steps
We provide a structured, step-by-step plan to carry out modernization with minimal risks. This includes technical recommendations, an estimate of the effort required, and a phased implementation approach, allowing you to work smoothly toward your target situation.
Submission
What do you deliver, and how long does it take?
You don't need to prepare anything. We just need read access to the code and a few conversations with the people who are familiar with the application. Re:App does the heavy lifting, and our engineers review the results.
5 business days from the time we have access to the code
4 hours from your team, spread over two or three calls
The assessment is free —it won't cost you a thing
What you provide
-
Read access to the repository GitHub GitLab Azure DevOps Bitbucket
-
Existing documentation and architectural drawings, even if they are outdated
-
Two or three meetings with a product owner and a developer who is familiar with the application
-
Understanding Today's Hosting and Costs On-premises AWS Azure Google Cloud
-
You choose where Re:App runs: offline in your own environment, or in a secure environment at SUE
Completion
What you get: one route per application
The Modernization Plan specifies, for each application, which path is appropriate, how much it will cost, and the order in which you should modernize. We’ll discuss the plan with your team during a 2-hour session.
The plan is yours. You'll carry it out with your own team, with SUE, or with another party.
Are you planning an acquisition or investment? If so, SUE will assess the same factors as part of a technical due diligence process, whether you’re the buyer or the seller.
Modernization Plan
-
Architecture Map: Modules, Dependencies, and Connections to the Database and Interfaces, from Re:App
-
Technical debt and security risks, ranked by their impact on your roadmap
-
Approach by application: rehost, replatform, refactor, rebuild, or replace, with the reason
-
Effort and costs per route, including cloud costs after modernization
-
A phased roadmap with the first step you can take without a big bang

Five business days, starting from the moment we have read-only access to the code. Your team will spend about 4 hours on this, spread over two or three meetings. After that, we’ll discuss the Modernization Plan in a 2-hour session. If more than one application is involved, we’ll agree on the scope in advance.
Nothing—the assessment is free. You’re under no obligation afterward: the Modernization Plan is yours, and you choose who will implement it.
That's up to you. Re:App runs offline in your own environment—so the code stays there—or in a secure SUE environment. Your code isn't sent to an external AI service, and we don't use it to train AI models.
