Tell me what it runs on.

Three questions, then whatever else you want to say. I read every one myself and reply in plain terms: whether I can help, roughly what it takes, and what I would look at first. No sales call, no deck.

What is it written in? Silverlight, LightSwitch, Classic ASP, VB6, WinForms, Delphi, FoxPro, Access, SQL Server 7 — language, framework, database and versions if you have them. Rough is fine.

What does the system do? In your words. "Runs the plant floor." "Every order goes through it." What it talks to helps too: other systems, devices, feeds.

What breaks when it goes down, or when nobody can change it? This tells me how urgent it is and which parts have to keep working while the move happens.

Anything else

Or message me on LinkedIn.

What happens next: I reply by email, usually the same or next working day, with a straight answer. If it is a fit, the first step is a short read of the code and database — a fixed, bounded piece of work that ends in a written account of what the system actually does and what a move would take. You keep that document whatever you decide.
