Someone else built it. Your subsidiaries stopped using it. We have seen this before.

Rescue Missions

A rescue is not a re-implementation. Most of what you paid for is worth keeping — the problem is that right now nobody can tell you which parts, and that uncertainty is what keeps the programme frozen.

We audit what actually runs in each entity, not what the documentation claims. Then we sort it into three piles: what works, what is patching a process that was never defined, and what should never have been built.

We strip the second and third piles. What is left gets rebuilt properly — on standard where standard is enough, on deliberate code where it is not — and made consistent enough across entities that consolidation stops being a monthly negotiation.

The most valuable thing we deliver early is usually one sentence the previous partner would not say out loud.
