Technology Stack Audit · Oxford
Technology Stack Audit in Oxford
A review of the technologies a Oxford organisation has committed to, judged on two questions that decide the next five years — is it still supported, and can you still hire people who know it. A framework abandoned upstream and a language nobody local writes any more are the same problem arriving at different speeds.
Why this comes up
The problem
The main application runs on a framework version that stopped receiving security fixes two years ago.
What you get
What we deliver
- Every significant technology listed with its version and support position
- Anything past end of life flagged, with what upgrading would actually involve
- The hiring market assessed honestly for each major choice you have made
- Overlapping tools identified, since most estates pay for the same capability twice
- Lock-in examined — what leaving each vendor would cost in time and money
- A sequenced plan, because everything cannot be modernised at once

Working in Oxford
South East
Oxford's economy runs on research and life sciences, and a lot of the work here starts with a research group or spin-out that needs a prototype turned into something other people can safely use.
Research groups and spin-outs needing a prototype turned into a supportable product make up most of the local demand.

Technology Stack Audit in Oxford — common questions
- Why does the hiring market belong in a technical audit?
- Because it determines what the code costs to maintain. A stack that few developers know means longer recruitment, higher rates and dependence on whoever you already have, and that is a commercial exposure regardless of how well the technology works.
- How bad is running an unsupported version?
- It depends what it is exposed to, and the honest answer is often less dramatic than vendors suggest — but security fixes stop, libraries drift out of compatibility, and the upgrade grows more expensive every year it is postponed until it becomes a rewrite.
- Why look for overlapping tools?
- Because duplication is normal and unnoticed. Departments buy separately, acquisitions bring their own systems, and organisations routinely pay for two project tools, three places to store files and a reporting platform that duplicates one they already own.
- What does the plan look like?
- Ordered by risk and dependency rather than by enthusiasm. Some upgrades unblock others, some can wait years without consequence, and a few are urgent — and separating those clearly is more useful than a modernisation programme that attempts everything and stalls after the first component.
- Do you work with businesses across Oxfordshire?
- Yes. We are based in Leicester, United Kingdom and work with clients throughout South East, including Oxford and the surrounding Oxfordshire area. Most collaboration happens remotely, and we travel for kick-offs and key milestones.
- What kind of Oxford businesses do you usually work with?
- Research groups and spin-outs needing a prototype turned into a supportable product make up most of the local demand. Beyond that we work across Research & Higher Education, Life Sciences, Publishing, Technology and Tourism.
- Do you cover the areas around Oxford?
- Yes — we work throughout South East, including Reading, Milton Keynes, Cambridge, London. Oxford is an urban area of roughly 170,000+, and we take on work across the wider Oxfordshire region rather than the city boundary alone.
