Architecture
Whether the decisions are justified, where the bottlenecks are and whether it can take growth.
We assess against criteria rather than taste: scalability, maintainability, security and dependence on specific people.
Whether the decisions are justified, where the bottlenecks are and whether it can take growth.
Readability, test coverage, duplication and whether documentation exists.
Outdated and abandoned libraries, and components with known vulnerabilities.
What has accumulated and what it will cost to fix.
Whether another team could continue the project or the knowledge sits in one developer head.
A risk assessment and recommendations in language that non-technical readers can follow.
An audit of an average project takes two to three weeks including interviews and preparing the report.
Why the audit is needed: a deal, a change of contractor, a risk assessment. The emphasis follows from that.
Access to the code, documentation and infrastructure, plus interviews with the team.
A check against the criteria, recording the findings and their consequences.
A document with risks, priorities and an estimate of what fixing them costs.
The most serious risk we find is not bad code but dependence on one person. A system may be written unremarkably, but if only one developer understands it and there is no documentation, the company is held hostage. We assess that separately from technical quality.
Yes, that is one of the main reasons for commissioning one. The audit gives an independent picture: what has been done, what condition it is in and what it costs to pick up. With that document, negotiations with both the outgoing and the new contractor become concrete.
An audit is not about finding someone to blame. We describe the state and the risks, not the people. The conclusions often help the team: what developers have been saying for a long time finally gets independent confirmation.
We will say so plainly, with reasoning and an assessment of both alternatives: continue or rewrite. The decision stays with you, but it is better made with figures than with feelings.
Tell us what the system is and why you need an assessment. We will prepare a report with risks and priorities.
