Access Migration for Construction
Your Access database from 2009 still runs the shop. We move it to the cloud with your business processes intact: reviewed, blueprinted, prototyped, and approved by you at every checkpoint. Job costing in spreadsheets, change orders in email, and margin found out after the fact.
Sound familiar?
Where contractors and builders usually get stuck
- One Access file on one shared drive runs a department
- It only works on one machine, and that machine is old
- The person who built it retired, and the forms are held together with hope
- Nobody will touch it because nobody knows what breaks
What's included
What you actually get
- Full audit of tables, queries, and reports
- Data cleaning and migration with zero loss
- Modern cloud front end your team can use anywhere
- Parallel-run period so nothing breaks
- Documentation and training
The same business logic, on modern cloud footing, with nothing lost.
Construction
The systems we end up in
Most contractors and builders are running some version of these four. Access Migration work usually starts by making them agree with each other.
Estimating and bid tracking
Job costing and committed costs
Change orders and RFIs
Field time and equipment logs
What changes
- Live job cost instead of a month-end surprise
- Change orders that are signed, priced, and billed
- Field hours that land in payroll without retyping
How we work
Access Migration, cut into four pieces
Audit the database
Every table, query, form, report, and macro documented, including the ones nobody knew were still running.
Blueprint the rebuild
We map old structure to new, flag the data that needs cleaning, and agree on scope before we touch anything.
Migrate and prototype
Data moves with validation at both ends. You test a working front end against real records before cutover.
Parallel run and hand off
Old and new run side by side until the numbers match. Then documentation, training, and the keys.
