What this actually looks like

Access Migration for sawmills and lumber yards

Mill databases are some of the most specific we see: tally, grade, species, kiln charges, and scale tickets, with logic accumulated over decades of one person maintaining it. They are also frequently the only complete record of yield. We document the grading and tally rules before touching anything, migrate the historical yield data intact because it is genuinely irreplaceable, and rebuild the front end so the yard, the kiln, and the office see one number.

Locally it shows up as a grade call the customer disputes — the kind of failure every Indianapolis owner remembers, nobody has costed, and Access Migration is measured against.
