Early Migration Conversations Often Reward Certainty More Than Honesty

In migration work, confidence should come from honest discovery — not from how clean the proposal looks.

A migration plan can look solid on paper. The proposal is structured.The timeline seems reasonable.The team has relevant technical experience. But none of that necessarily tells you whether the team has identified the parts of the system the business still depends on. In complex migration projects, risk does not always sit in the code itself. […]

It is whether the right people can understand what the business still depends on. In long-running systems, the biggest risks are rarely just technical. A workflow may look outdated.A rule may look inconsistent.A […]
