Milton Keynes · Buckinghamshire

Head offices, distribution and technology at the Triangle’s southern edge

Two kinds of brief arrive here. Operational systems that run a distribution business, and corporate programmes that come with procurement, a security questionnaire and a group IT function to satisfy before anything starts.

Milton Keynes sits at the southern edge of the Golden Triangle and has a different profile from the rest of it. Alongside substantial distribution capacity on the M1, the town carries an unusual density of UK head offices and technology operations for its size.

For this work that lands mainly in Corporate head offices, Distribution & logistics and Technology & telecoms.

Where it lands

The Milton Keynes sectors this work suits.

Drawn from what Milton Keynes is actually built on, rather than a list of industries we would accept work from.

  1. Corporate head offices

    UK headquarters functions with procurement, security review and group reporting requirements attached to every project.

  2. Distribution & logistics

    Significant warehousing and fulfilment capacity along the M1 corridor.

  3. Technology & telecoms

    An established technology operations base, often with in-house teams and existing platform commitments.

How we work here

What legacy replacement looks like in Milton Keynes.

The full scope, phases and deliverables are on the Legacy Replacement service page. These are the parts that are specific to working here.

  1. 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.

  2. 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.

  3. Reconciled, not hoped

    Rehearsed migrations with reports proving balances, counts and histories match before anything is switched off.

  4. 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.

  5. On site in Milton Keynes

    Milton Keynes is at the southern limit of the corridor we work in, and an easy run down the M1 from the rest of the Triangle. 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.
