Project Takeover
When the previous team left, when the contractor disappeared, when the timeline slipped six months — we step into half-built codebases and ship them. No re-write reflex; we ship what's there if it's worth shipping.
Why teams pick us for Project Takeover
The reasons clients usually keep us once the first scope ships.
Senior people only
No bait-and-switch from your lead engineer in the pitch to a junior on day one. The people you scope with are the people who build.
Honest scoping
We tell you what is in scope, what is not, and where the risks are — in writing, before you sign anything. Surprises kill projects.
Weekly demos, not big reveals
You see real, running software every week. If a direction is wrong, you find out in week three, not week thirteen.
A Project Takeover engagement, end to end
The work below is typical — we scope to the outcome, not a checklist.
- Code and infrastructure audit (1–2 weeks)
- Honest report: salvage, refactor, or rebuild
- Bug triage and stabilization sprint
- Documentation and knowledge transfer
- Continued delivery or graceful handoff to your team
How a Project Takeover engagement runs
Three phases that bracket the work.
- 01
Discover
A working session to map the outcome, constraints, and the smallest thing worth shipping first. You walk out with a written scope, not a sales deck.
- 03
Build
Senior engineers in weekly sprints with live demos. You see progress every week — no surprise reveals at the end.
- 04
Launch
Production deploy, infra hand-off, runbooks, and team training. We stay on-call through the first traffic spike.
