MethodSum Consulting Services
Technology Strategy & Roadmapping
Know where you stand. Decide what to do. Commit with confidence.
The problem it solves
Most technology modernization efforts fail before they start - not because the technology is too hard, but because nobody defined the problem first, and realize six months in that they were solving the wrong thing.
What we do
We conduct a structured assessment of your technology environment. The output is a working document your leadership team can use to make real decisions, secure budget, and sequence execution for the foreseeable future.
What you get
- Current state assessment across applications, infrastructure, and team capability
- Risk-ranked inventory of technical debt and modernization candidates
- Prioritized roadmap with initiative sizing, dependencies, and sequencing rationale
- Business case narrative for board or executive presentation
- Recommended engagement model for execution (internal, MethodSum, or hybrid)
Software Modernization
Transform the systems holding you back into a foundation for what’s next
The problem this solves
At some point, maintaining the old system costs more — in developer time, in outage risk, in delayed releases — than rebuilding it would. But rebuilding it the wrong way, or in the wrong order, creates a new set of problems. This is where most modernization projects get stuck: the cost of staying is high, but the risk of moving feels just as high.
What we do
We assess the target system — architecture, codebase, data model, integrations, and operational dependencies — and design a modernization approach that minimizes disruption while systematically retiring the technical debt that’s costing you.
AI-accelerated modernization
MethodSum uses AI tooling throughout the modernization process as a force multiplier that changes the economics of what modernization costs and how long it takes.
The results are measurable. In recent engagements, AI-assisted modernization techniques have reduced the total effort required to — approximately 20% of what traditional approaches demand. The same outcome, at a fraction of the time and cost.
