Access Migration for Wood Industry
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. Yard inventory on a whiteboard, kiln schedules in a notebook, orders in a legacy database.
Sound familiar?
Where sawmills and lumber yards 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.
Wood Industry
The systems we end up in
Most sawmills and lumber yards are running some version of these four. Access Migration work usually starts by making them agree with each other.
Log and lumber inventory by species and grade
Kiln schedules and moisture records
Order entry, tally sheets, and shipping
Grading, yield, and scale tickets
What changes
- Tally that matches the yard without a walk-around
- Kiln and order schedules visible to the whole crew
- Yield reporting you can actually price against
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.
