Methods offers comprehensive cloud migration and modernisation services, designed to guide organisations through their journey to and into the cloud efficiently and effectively.

Our approach begins with a thorough assessment of an organisation's readiness for cloud adoption, focusing on both financial and non-financial benefits and aspects of the transition. We develop detailed business cases that outline a full range of benefits, resourcing implications, timescales, and transition planning, ensuring that organisations can maximise the value of their cloud investments.

Our service includes an assessment of existing applications and infrastructure, considering opportunities for modernisation including consolidation, application re-factoring, and cost optimisation.  

We leverage our extensive experience to identify duplicate applications, evaluate plans for replacement or retirement, and estimate remediation costs. This process allows us to deliver the lowest possible cost footprint when transitioning to the cloud.

Throughout the engagement we focus on building internal skills and capability to ensure that the organisations we work are able to exploit the business and service benefits of a cloud-enabled infrastructure.
