A software provider relied on a Windows Forms application that no longer met the needs of its users or the business.

Increased Team Capability: Upskilled the internal team, equipping them to confidently manage and extend the system independently.
Why It Matters
This project transformed a legacy system and empowered the client's team to adopt modern practices, ensuring sustainability and continued innovation. Focusing on a tailored, incremental approach, I delivered a solution that balanced immediate business needs with long-term strategic goals.
