Stage 0 · Proof

The Modernization PoC: Does the new path work with your application?

Your most important form, reimagined and built AI-supported as Blazor. A working proof instead of more slides, before you invest heavily. The scope is fixed in writing up front, in screens and process steps. We call it “Stage 0”: small enough to try out, real enough to decide.

Who is the PoC for?

For everyone who wants to see it running before they sign.

The roadmap is in or taking shape. But between the plan and a six-figure assignment one thing is still missing: the proof on your own system. The Modernization PoC is for you if you recognize at least one of these sentences:

“On slides every roadmap looks good. I want to see it running with our application.”
“Our founder does not believe our complex screens work on the web.”
“Before I commission the implementation, I want to know how this team works.”
“We were already disappointed by a service provider once. This time the proof first.”

What you get

A working proof that is yours.

Scope fixed in writing

Before the assignment we count together what the PoC comprises: which screen, which process step. That is fixed in writing, so the fixed price stays a fixed price.

Your form as Blazor

We build your most important screen or your most important process step AI-supported as a modern Blazor web application. Not abstractly, but with your domain.

Source code included

The demo and source code are yours, at every tier. Your team can review the code, develop it further or use it as a reference for its own decisions.

Depending on the tier: architecture & handover

The Full PoC adds the jump-off demo into your legacy application, a documented target architecture and a handover session for your team.

How the PoC works

Four steps from scope to proof.

1 · Scoping pre-talk

Together we choose the screen or process step with the greatest proof value and fix the scope in writing. Only then do you commission.

2 · Build

We develop the PoC AI-supported as a Blazor application, following our AI-Assisted Software Engineering process: with architecture and reviews instead of prompting away.

3 · Demo

You see the result running: as a video demo for the Mini PoC, as a standalone web app for Compact and Full. Go ahead and show it to your most critical developer.

4 · Handover

You receive the source code, and for the Full PoC additionally the documented target architecture and a handover session. After that you decide freely on the next step.

Price in three tiers

As much proof as you need.

Proof

Modernization PoC “Stage 0”

Your most important form, reimagined. The scope is fixed in writing in the scoping pre-talk, in screens and process steps. Deliberately without deployment into your environment, at no tier: the PoC proves the concept, the rollout belongs in the stages. All prices net plus VAT.

from 3,499.00 €three tiers, fixed price

Mini PoC3,499.00 €

Your most important screen, rebuilt AI-supported as Blazor. You receive a video demo and source code.

Compact PoC7,999.00 €

A complete process step (2 to 4 connected screens including navigation), running as a standalone web app.

Full PoC14,999.00 €

Compact PoC plus a jump-off demo into your legacy application, a documented target architecture and a handover session.

Where does the PoC stand on the journey?

The PoC is “Stage 0” of the Legacy to Innovation journey, between the roadmap and the implementation. The crediting chain of the journey runs on: the Future-Check (749.00 €) is fully credited toward the report, the report with 1,499.00 € toward the workshop, the workshop with 25 % (1,875.00 €) toward stage 1 of the implementation. In between, the PoC gives you the proof that stage 1 is worth it.

Why no deployment? Honestly explained.

A PoC is a proof, not a half-finished product.

We deliberately do not roll the PoC out into your environment, at no tier. Not because we could not, but because it would be the wrong shortcut: a PoC treated like a product turns into a permanent construction site with expectations it was never meant to fulfill. A clean rollout with operations, security and data integration belongs in the stages of the implementation.

Our customer Odysys, the industry solution for heavy-load rental, first tried the web port with a migration tool and failed with it. With us came the proof first in the form of a PoC, then the rebuild stage by stage. Exactly this order protects your investment.

Frequently asked questions

Answered clearly.

Why do you not install the PoC in our environment?

Deliberately not, at no tier. The PoC answers a single question: does the new path work with your application? A deployment into your environment does not answer this question any better, but makes the PoC more expensive and slower. The clean rollout belongs in the stages of the implementation, with everything that comes with it: operations, security, data integration.

Is the source code ours?

Yes, at every tier. For the Mini PoC you receive a video demo and source code, for Compact and Full the running web app together with the code. Your team can keep working with it, whether you modernize afterwards with us, on your own or with another service provider.

How do you determine what goes into the PoC?

In the scoping pre-talk, and in writing. The scope is counted in screens and process steps and fixed before the assignment: one screen for the Mini PoC, one process step with 2 to 4 connected screens for Compact and Full. This way both sides know exactly what will be delivered beforehand, and the fixed price stays a fixed price.

Do we have to have done the workshop first?

No, but it is the usual path. The workshop delivers the roadmap, and the PoC proves its most critical point before you commission the implementation. If you want to start without a workshop, we clarify in the scoping pre-talk whether the screen you have in mind is really the most meaningful one.

What does the Modernization PoC cost?

Depending on the tier 3,499.00 € (Mini), 7,999.00 € (Compact) or 14,999.00 € (Full), each as a fixed price, net plus VAT. Which tier fits depends on how much proof you need: a single screen, a complete process step or additionally a jump-off demo, a target architecture and a handover session.

Still unsure?

Start one stage earlier: with the workshop.

If it is still open which screen is even the right one for the proof, you are missing the roadmap. The Legacy to Innovation Workshop for 7,499.00 € delivers it: prioritized, with an effort estimate and a business-model module.
