Cost Pressure
Hardware, licensing, and staffing costs keep rising while budgets shrink.
Legacy Wisdom Meets Future Code
Modernize IBM i (AS/400) Systems Without Losing What Works
I help CIOs and IT leaders evolve RPG and IBM i applications into modern, maintainable platforms -- without outsourcing, hidden teams, or risky "big-bang" rewrites.
Direct, hands-on work with me personally - 30+ years IBM i / RPG + modern stacks
Where legacy meets momentum
- Preserve proven business logic
- Reduce IBM i dependency where it hurts most
- Enable cloud + AI without disruption
- Move incrementally with clear decision points
One accountable partner. No hand-offs. No outsourcing.
Who This Is For
CIOs and senior IT leaders whose IBM i systems still run the business but are becoming harder to staff, more expensive to operate, and increasingly isolated from modern platforms.
You don't want a rewrite fantasy or an outsourcing dependency. You want options you can control.
Common signals
- Core systems are stable but rigid
- RPG talent is scarce and expensive
- Cloud initiatives stall at the core
- Modernization feels risky and unclear
The Real Problem
Talent Risk
Finding and retaining IBM i expertise is harder every year.
Innovation Drag
Modern initiatives slow down because the core can't move.
The biggest risk isn't change -- it's waiting until change is forced.
How I Help
- Preserve proven business logic
- Reduce IBM i dependency where it hurts most
- Enable modern stacks without breaking operations
- Move incrementally -- no "all or nothing" decisions
The goal is not technology for its own sake, but lower long-term cost, lower risk, and a system your team can maintain.
