01 — PowerBuilder Engineering

Independent PowerBuilder Consulting

A structured assessment of your PowerBuilder applications, database, and integration landscape — delivered as an executive-ready roadmap, not a sales pitch for a predetermined solution.

What We Cover

PowerBuilder Consulting services

A single engagement that looks at the whole picture — the PowerBuilder application, the database underneath it, and everything it integrates with — before recommending a path forward.

Application Portfolio Assessment

A review of one or more PowerBuilder applications — version, architecture (2-tier/3-tier), code health, technical debt, and business criticality — so you know exactly what you're carrying.

Database & Integration Landscape Review

Mapping the Oracle/Sybase database layer and every integration point — files, middleware, third-party systems — the PowerBuilder application depends on.

Modernization Path Options

Clear options ranging from staying on PowerBuilder with targeted upgrades, to introducing an API/middleware layer, to a phased exit — each with tradeoffs, not a single prescribed answer.

UI/UX & Technology Modernization Review

An assessment of where interface modernization, architecture changes, or newer technology adoption would deliver the most value for the effort involved.

Risk & Effort Estimation

Realistic timeline and effort ranges for each modernization option, so leadership can plan budget and resourcing with confidence rather than guesswork.

Executive Presentation & Roadmap

A leadership-ready presentation summarizing findings, options, and a recommended sequence — built to support a real budget and planning decision.

How We Work

Assessment first. Recommendations second.

Our consultants spend time directly with your applications, database, and integration systems before recommending anything. There is no template answer handed over on day one — the recommendation is built from what we actually find in your environment.

Findings are documented and validated with your technical team before the executive presentation. Nothing reaches leadership that hasn't first been checked against the people who know the system best.

Recommendations are vendor-neutral. Sometimes the right answer is staying on PowerBuilder longer, sometimes it's introducing middleware, sometimes it's a phased exit — the assessment says which, and why, based on evidence rather than a predetermined agenda.
