Ongoing support · Fixes and improvements
Understand what exists before deciding what comes next.
Ongoing maintenance keeps your product operational over time. A takeover starts with understanding the software and how it is operated, so risks and useful actions can be prioritised.
Rebuild the knowledge base
Identify source code, environments, dependencies and external services. Understand business workflows and deployment procedures to define a realistic takeover scope.
Address the priorities
Organise fixes, reliability improvements and operational needs. Separate urgent incidents from longer-term improvements and set a working rhythm suited to the product’s use.
Improve while maintaining continuity
Evolve features, integrations and architecture in line with business objectives. Document changes and prepare the handover to reduce reliance on a single person.
A gradual takeover
From assessment to ongoing support.
The scope, responsibilities and support arrangements depend on the application’s criticality and the information available.
Access to code and environments, documentation, incident history and discussions with the people involved.
Product condition, vulnerabilities, business constraints and first steps.
Maintenance planning, change validation, deployments and request tracking.
Focused improvements, documentation and skills development for your team.
A view beyond the code
Maintenance is part of the product’s journey.
STIT Consulting supports businesses from strategy to operations: technical leadership, web and mobile development, AI and business integrations. This perspective connects maintenance decisions with users’ real needs.
If the takeover reveals important technical decisions, CTO support can complement the ongoing maintenance work.

Frequently asked questions
Preparing an application takeover.
Can you take over an application built by another provider?
Yes, taking over third-party applications is part of our work. Feasibility and scope depend in particular on access to the code, environments and required components. We assess these at the start.
Do we need to rewrite the entire application?
The assessment identifies what can be kept, fixed or improved. A rewrite is not an automatic decision: the right approach depends on the product’s condition, risks, budget and your objectives.
What information should we provide for an initial discussion?
Tell us how the application is used, its known technologies and hosting, current difficulties and who has access. Even partial documentation helps prepare the takeover. Based in Marseille, STIT Consulting works across France and can lead projects in English.
