Technical review of existing software

Understand the system before investing further. Review code, integrations, operations and known issues, and prioritise what to keep, improve or investigate.

Prioritised next actions

01

A concrete question before the review

Is a new team taking over, has development stalled or are you considering a major change? The question determines what to examine. We agree on access to code, documentation and a suitable test environment. The review is scoped and does not modify production data or deploy code without separate agreement.

02

Review the system, not just the files

We map builds, deployments, external dependencies and failure detection. Assess critical user journeys and known issues alongside tests and documentation. Distinguish observations from assumptions and identify areas that could not be inspected. This is not a penetration test or security certification.

03

A prioritised next step

The output may include a system map, findings and prioritised actions. Explain why an action matters and what dependencies remain. A working system does not automatically require a rewrite. The review can inform handover or further development, while remediation is agreed separately.

A good place to start.

  • Which decision do you need to make?
  • Do you have access to code and environments?
  • Which issues affect users most?
  • Who owns current operations?

Questions & answers

Do you fix issues during the review?

Only when agreed. Assessment and remediation are separate so scope and risks remain clear.

Can you guarantee that every issue will be found?

No. Findings cover the reviewed code and agreed scenarios. Access, time and available documentation can limit the assessment.
