Technology Transition
Freedom from technology constraints to deliver value
Shifting away from legacy technology unleashes your teams to deliver value as they want, not if they can. But where do you start? Band-aid approaches no longer work and ‘rip and replace’ of whole systems is too risky. Technology Transition takes you to a contemporary future system founded on four principles:
- Understand the ‘big picture’ role for technology
- Focus on finding value, not on the tech
- Commit to tackling the complex underlying constraints that cause the problems
- Do it step-by-step – a continuous modernisation approach that aligns to business priorities
We help you find the fastest path to value – one priority service or domain to focus effort. We work with your teams to loosen constraints affecting that priority just enough to extract it. Then we find the next priority.
Over time, your services and domains are transitioned to value-aligned product platforms that maximise flow, minimise dependencies and which your teams will love. And they’ll deliver the new features, innovative products and improved experiences that customers love. Are you still tangled up in legacy?
HYPR helped us deliver a significant transformation of our 30-year-old legacy platform. We’d tried previously but without success, but HYPR came with contemporary thinking, a great mindset in terms of thinking about business opportunity and goals.

Contemporary Architecture
Future-proof your ability to evolve with customers
Good systems architecture enables the free flow of customer value. If your system falls over or if a small change to one thing means making a hundred changes to other things, your architecture is getting in the way. Costs of ownership begin to balloon and your customers aren’t getting what they want. Expensively wading through treacle is no fun.
We’re experts in deconstructing the legacy monoliths that hold you back. Contemporary Architecture uses modern ‘patterns’ to separate domains and services, allowing you to deploy just what you need at speed, with confidence and at lower cost. We help you introduce the new architecture in slices, without building more legacy or shadow IT. We align teams around the domains to accelerate the flow of code and value across your stack.
This new landscape of well-designed services, APIs and cloud-native thinking lowers cost of ownership and makes change viable again. Which is vital. Because adaptability is the last USP. What’s your landscape?
HYPR has played a pivotal role in helping establish new architectures, managing our AWS environment, data migration, security, onboarding and some integration. They’ve also been critical in developing our DevOps capability. We’ve worked with HYPR’s Reuben Dunn to build our skills. He’s been an incredible leader, very good with technology, but also very engaging and inspiring for the team to work with. We know we’re in safe hands.

Progressive Delivery
Frictionless delivery of infrastructure, software and data
Value flows to your customer when you deploy working software. To be competitive you want to do this any time, with high levels of automation and absolute confidence. Two things may be getting in the way;
- Big projects with big, single releases which take too long and carry too much risk
- Poorly automated pipelines and infrastructure that prevents valuable code getting from development through to production and into the customer’s hands
Progressive Delivery meets these challenges by working in sprints to deliver smaller chunks of value more frequently and with DevOps practices to automate infrastructure, layered testing, deployment, security and compliance all built in. Value flows freely to the customer through well-orchestrated pipelines in scalable cloud IaaS environments. At the press of a button.
We’re experts in helping enterprises safely deploy working software or data products at will, at any time and without fear. So that you respond to customer needs faster and deliver the value they expect. How is your value flowing?
Continuous Discovery
Build the right thing and build the thing right
Everything you deliver to the customer must have value. If it doesn’t, it’s just waste. It’s why building the thing right doesn’t matter if you’re not building the right thing. To do that, you need to put aside subjective, biased, me-too thinking and find the customer value signals that matter.
Our Continuous Discovery approach uses small teams to validate market fit and customer experience through research, prototyping and social media targeting. Using landing pages and multivariate testing, we use real data to test concepts, nail down experiences and identify features that customers really want. We can automate much of this process and tune it to the level of validation you require, either as a one-off engagement or as a service alongside product development.
Continuous Discovery is a brilliant way of fostering innovation. Working alongside your product teams, we help you test hypotheses, experiment, hunt down and deliver the ground-breaking value customers want. Are you building right?
HYPR are super cutting-edge. They’re at Jedi level in terms of their current technology delivery practices and always aware about what’s emerging. Gareth is just out there, while Gillian is simply very honest. You can take the most technically complex challenge and you can guarantee they’ll find a way to solve it.

Hybrid Teams
Get your people upskilled while delivering
Magic happens when decent engineers are exposed to the next-level technical practices of others. They want to learn, use and share them with colleagues, creating a virtuous circle of upskilling that allows teams to deliver value much, much faster.
While training courses are valuable, they rarely embed skills ‘in the moment’ on a live project or with side-by-side mentoring that makes adoption real. With Hybrid Teams, you get our super-skilled engineers working alongside yours on a real piece of work. We introduce practices that your engineers may know about but haven’t yet had the support to try.
Together, we create better solutions, streamline processes, improve adaptability and accelerate flow. This knowledge transfer is at the heart of everything we do. Our engineers are passionate about sharing what we have. It’s why we’re here – HYPR’s purpose is to create moments of relevance and progress for others. Can we help your teams progress?
