The TX Roadmap: How does your document processing get to the web?

Your document processing is to move from WinForms or WPF to the web, to the cloud or onto a new reporting basis. The TX Roadmap delivers the documented target architecture, assesses the alternatives and proves the path with a working PoC. You decide on the basis of code, not slides.

Who is the Roadmap for?

For software vendors facing a strategic rebuild.

The document processing has grown, works, and is now standing in the way of a bigger decision. The Roadmap is for you if you recognise at least one of these sentences:

  • “Our application is moving to the web, but document generation still hangs on the desktop.”
  • “WinForms or WPF no longer carry our document processing into the future.”
  • “We are supposed to move to the cloud, and no one knows what that means for our templates.”
  • “Before we invest in the rebuild, we want to see the path proven, not just claimed.”
What you get

A target architecture that delivers the proof right along with it.

Documented target architecture

The architecture workshop produces your target architecture, written down and traceable: components, interfaces, migration path and a clear recommendation for the next step.

Working PoC

In the Plus and Premium packages a proof of concept proves the target architecture with real code. In the Premium package it works with your real templates, not with sample data.

Assessment of the alternatives

Which paths are there besides the recommended architecture, and why are they better or worse? You see the options side by side and can defend the decision internally.

Sparring up to the decision

In the Premium package we accompany you beyond the workshop: queries, trade-offs, conversations with your team, until the implementation decision is made.

How the Roadmap works

From the workshop to the proven architecture.

1 · Architecture workshop

We take your current document processing apart: application, templates, volumes, target platform. Together with your developers, by video call or on site.

2 · Target architecture

We document the target architecture and assess the alternatives. You get a document your team can work with and your management can decide with.

3 · Proof of concept

We build the PoC of the target architecture: the most critical part of the rebuild, up and running. In the Premium package extended, with your real templates.

4 · Decision

Debrief with result and recommendation, in the Premium package with sparring up to the implementation decision. Afterwards you know what to do, with or without us.

And if you go the whole way?

The Roadmap is the strategy stage of the TX journey. Whoever started with the TX Compass (499.00 €) gets it fully credited: the Basic package then costs 3,500.00 €. After the Roadmap comes delivery in stages, with an exit after every stage.

Why you can trust the architecture

Recommended by the manufacturer. And neutral all the same.

We are a partner of Text Control GmbH, and the manufacturer has been referring customers to us for years, all the way to the USA: for The Response Group from Texas we are building a system to generate complex emergency plans on a TX Text Control basis.

That is exactly why the assessment of alternatives is part of the Roadmap: the target architecture has to fit your case, not our partnership. And the PoC ensures that you do not have to believe any claim. What does not run, we do not recommend.

Frequently asked questions

Answered clearly.

What does the TX Roadmap cost?

There are three packages at a fixed price, all net plus VAT: Basic for 3,999.00 € with an architecture workshop and documented target architecture, Plus for 6,999.00 € additionally with a working PoC and an assessment of the alternatives, Premium for 10,999.00 € with an extended PoC based on your real templates and sparring up to the implementation decision. The TX Compass (499.00 €) is fully credited.

What sets the Roadmap apart from the TX Jump Start?

The Jump Start gets your existing application up and running, until the first document template is in production. The Roadmap plans the strategic rebuild: away from WinForms or WPF, toward the web, the cloud or a new reporting basis. First the direction, then the road.

What exactly is the PoC, and what does it bring us?

A working proof of concept of your target architecture: real code that proves the most critical part of the rebuild, instead of just claiming it on slides. In the Premium package the PoC works with your real templates. You decide about the rebuild on the basis of code, not promises.

Do we have to do the TX Compass first?

No, the Roadmap can be booked on its own. But if it is still open whether TX Text Control is the right basis for your case at all, the Compass is the cheaper first step: 499.00 € with a results guarantee, and the amount is fully credited toward the Roadmap.

Do you also assess alternatives to TX Text Control?

Yes, in the Plus and Premium packages the assessment of alternatives is expressly part of it. We are a partner of Text Control GmbH, but the target architecture has to fit your case, not our partnership. If another path carries better, it is in the result.

Still unsure?

Clarify the fundamental question first with the TX Compass.

90 minutes of strategy conversation for 499.00 €: does TX Text Control fit your project? A clear yes or no, an architecture recommendation, a next step. With a results guarantee, and the price is fully credited toward the Roadmap.
