Legacy Replacement in Crick
This region industrialised early in software terms too. A great deal of genuinely excellent process knowledge is locked inside systems written decades ago for one business, by someone who has since retired.
Can you replace a legacy system for a business in Crick?
Yes. GTX Digital migrates businesses in Crick off unsupported, undocumented or end-of-life software, in stages, without stopping the operation.
- Starts with documenting the existing behaviour, including the undocumented.
- Migrates in stages, with old and new running together and reconciled.
- Treats data migration and validation as a first-class deliverable.
Crick · Northamptonshire
M1 junction 18 and the edge of DIRFT
Nearly everything built here involves movement and evidence: where a load is, who has it, and what proves it was delivered. Offline capability is a baseline requirement rather than a feature.
Crick is a village with the industrial footprint of somewhere much larger. Sitting at M1 junction 18 beside DIRFT, it is surrounded by distribution and rail freight activity that serves national and international customers.
For this work that lands mainly in Rail freight & multimodal, Logistics & distribution and Transport & haulage.

Where it lands
The Crick sectors this work suits.
Drawn from what Crick is actually built on, rather than a list of industries we would accept work from.
-
Rail freight & multimodal
Rail-connected movement with modal handover timings and documentation that road-only systems ignore.
-
Logistics & distribution
Large-scale warehousing and distribution at and around DIRFT, serving national customers.
-
Transport & haulage
Road haulage operations where drivers, vehicles and proof of delivery are the core data.
How we work here
What legacy replacement looks like in Crick.
The full scope, phases and deliverables are on the Legacy Replacement service page. These are the parts that are specific to working here.
-
Mapped before replaced
We establish what the system actually does from its data, its outputs and the people who use it, and write it down. Usually the first time anyone has.
-
Incremental, never big-bang
One bounded piece first, reading from the old system while it still runs. A weekend cutover concentrates all the risk into one weekend.
-
Reconciled, not hoped
Rehearsed migrations with reports proving balances, counts and histories match before anything is switched off.
-
Knowledge out of heads
The business rules and the reasons behind them, documented. That often outlives the project and is the most valuable thing produced.

On site in Crick
Crick is directly off the M1 for us, which makes it one of the easiest places in the Triangle to get to. Discovery and the sessions that decide a design happen in person; delivery then runs remotely with scheduled reviews, and there is no travel charge inside the Golden Triangle.
Questions
Legacy Replacement in Crick, answered.
The questions businesses in Crick ask before they commission this work.
What does a legacy assessment cost for a Crick business?
The assessment is a small fixed-price piece of work, typically a few thousand pounds over two to four weeks, producing a written map of the system, a risk register and costed options. It is deliberately standalone: you can take it to any supplier, including ones who are not us.
