Result: The entire system is now fully hosted in Azure. The migration secured further investor funding for our client.
claims and tens of thousands of transactions migrated to a new system
MD Insurance Services Limited is one of the three companies that constitute The MD Group brand. They work together to provide insurance schemes to support the construction industry across the UK and in Europe.
Following a comprehensive review, our client identified that the legacy system used to manage both claims and other insurance cases did not meet their current standards for case traceability, case management and reporting.
Our focus was to reduce time needed for the processes from start to finish and to improve accuracy of claims decisions and overall customer service. This allows our client to develop their offering further and stay ahead in the market.

Why choose Future Processing for Legacy App Migration services?
Our company treats migration as a strategic project that enables long‑term business value rather than simply transferring code. The migration approach starts with a deep analysis of the legacy environment and the organisation’s goals, risks and constraints, leading to a tailored, phased roadmap that delivers measurable results.
Future Processing always considers migration within the context of a company’s business objectives. They begin each project by understanding organisational goals and aligning the migration plan accordingly. This ensures that the new platform supports future growth instead of just replicating past limitations.
Our teams combine deep technical knowledge with business insights. They have experience across major cloud platforms like AWS, Azure and GCP, and know how to use microservices and API‑first architectures to re‑engineer complex systems.
We also have successfully migrated software for organisations in highly regulated sectors, ensuring data integrity, business continuity and compliance throughout the process.
What triggers the need for legacy application modernisation?
Modernisation becomes necessary when outdated systems hinder rather than help the business. Future Processing notes that tell‑tale triggers include systems that are increasingly expensive to maintain, rely on technologies no longer supported by vendors, and struggle to integrate with modern tools.
Other signs include delays in launching new products due to rigid legacy software, difficulty attracting skilled staff to maintain ageing platforms, frequent downtime and performance issues affecting customer experience, and growing concerns around compliance and security.
When these problems start to limit business agility and expose the organisation to unnecessary risk, it’s a clear indicator that legacy modernisation is overdue.
What savings and improvements have our customers experienced?
Future Processing’s work on legacy application migration and modernisation projects has delivered tangible savings and efficiency gains for clients. Several case studies illustrate the improvements we have achieved:
– Adia – HR company – by modernising an ageing monolithic platform and migrating it to a microservices‑based architecture, we slashed the lead time for changes from around two months to just one day, allowing the client to release features in hours instead of months. We also reduced the change‑failure rate from over 30% to below 10% and halved the company’s cloud costs.
– TrustMark – the only UK Government-endorsed Quality Scheme – in this migration project, we rebuilt and migrated 53 services and 5 Azure DevOps pipelines to a new Azure subscription within a tight 20‑day timeframe. By simplifying the infrastructure from four environments to two and removing unnecessary Azure resources, we cut subscription costs by 72% while maintaining performance. The leaner environment also reduced the number of App Services (-39%), Function Apps (‑25%), databases (‑33%) and storage accounts (‑25%), lowering long‑term operating expenses.
– FareShare – national food redistribution charity – FareShare’s legacy warehouse management system was slowing down food handling. We created a scalable cloud‑based application tailored to the charity’s processes. The new system improved the user experience and reduced product input time on key processes by up to one‑third. Because the application runs on AWS, it can scale to handle increasing demand while maintaining control of food safety and traceability.
How does Future Processing ensure legacy app migration aligns with business priorities?
Future Processing treats legacy migration as a strategic change rather than just a technical exercise. We align each project with the client’s business priorities through a combination of discovery, careful planning and metrics‑driven delivery:
- Deep discovery and goal definition – before any technical decisions are made, the team works with stakeholders to understand the organisation’s objectives, risks and constraints. We carry out structured discovery activities to map business‑critical processes, audit the existing codebase and databases, and identify where the legacy system holds the business back. This step reveals which areas have the highest strategic value and ensures that the migration is driven by business goals rather than technology alone.
- Tailored, phased migration roadmap – we design a phased migration plan based on the findings from the discovery phase. The roadmap is adapted to the client’s pace, budget and technical realities, ensuring stability and minimising disruption. By using a phased or parallel approach, old and new systems can run side‑by‑side during migration, so critical business functions continue uninterrupted.
- Metrics‑driven modernisation – to keep the work aligned with business outcomes, we use a total metrics‑driven modernisation framework. We define success up front by agreeing with the client on specific business‑related metrics – such as reduced lead times, lower change failure rates or faster pricing updates – and use these to guide the technical strategy. Delivery metrics, including DORA indicators (lead time, deployment frequency, change failure rate and time to restore service), are monitored to ensure the migration improves the organisation’s agility and reliability.
- Ongoing collaboration and transparency – throughout the migration, we maintain open communication and regularly review progress with stakeholders. We adjust the plan as business priorities evolve, ensuring that each phase continues to support strategic goals.
How do we minimise business disruption during migration?
Future Processing combines business‑aligned planning with proven technical patterns to modernise and migrate older applications. The key techniques include:
- Choosing the right modernisation option – we draw on the “7 Rs” framework to select the best approach for each system: rehosting (lifting and shifting workloads), replatforming (moving to a new runtime), refactoring (improving the codebase), repurchasing (replacing with off-the-shelf packages), retiring (eliminating obsolete components), retaining (keeping what still adds value), and relocating workloads when appropriate.
- Data migration and security – sensitive data is migrated through robust ETL processes that validate and transform records before loading them into the new platform. Tools like Azure Data Factory, Power BI or Snowflake are often employed, and security measures including OAuth2, role-based access control, and encryption are used to protect data in transit and at rest.
- Rearchitecting into microservices and API‑first systems – when legacy code hinders agility, we re‑engineer monolithic systems into loosely coupled services. We have experience across AWS, Azure and GCP, and use modern stacks such as .NET Core, Java, Python and Node.js to build microservices, RESTful APIs and event‑driven components.
- Modern cloud and DevOps tooling – Infrastructure as Code and CI/CD pipelines are used to automate provisioning and deployment, improving reproducibility and reducing human error. Migration roadmaps typically adopt containerisation and serverless services on cloud platforms to optimise performance and cost.
How do we support infrastructure and runtime optimisation?
Future Processing provides a structured set of services and engineering practices to make infrastructure and runtime more efficient, resilient and cost‑effective. Our support typically covers three phases:
Assessment and planning – we begin by analysing the current infrastructure and identifying constraints and requirements, then develop a tailored migration or optimisation strategy. Recommended options might include rehosting, relocating, or replatforming workloads to a modern environment, with a detailed plan to minimise downtime and risk.
Modernisation and build – to optimise runtime, we apply cloud‑native techniques such as microservices, serverless functions, autoscaling and container orchestration, so systems can scale on demand while using resources efficiently. We also redesign monolithic architectures into modular services and event‑driven designs, use infrastructure as code, deploy workloads across multiple regions, and implement automated recovery mechanisms to maximise availability and reduce risk.
Run and optimise – once running in the new environment, we provide continuous monitoring, performance tuning and cost optimisation to ensure the infrastructure remains efficient. Cloud spending audits identify waste and opportunities for rightsizing, while automated governance tools terminate idle resources and scale capacity based on actual demand. Clients pay only a percentage of the savings achieved, and the service can also reduce carbon emissions by lowering energy usage and server utilisation.
