IT Legacy Expertise

Fractional and direct-hire leaders who keep your most critical legacy systems running and evolving.

Why legacy expertise
still matters

AS/400, mainframes, and custom-built applications still power mission critical workflows across industries. While newer platforms often take the spotlight, studies show many organizations rely on core legacy systems for efficiency, compliance, and stability. The challenge is talent: as these skills become rarer, securing leaders who can maintain, modernize, and integrate legacy environments is more essential than ever.
