Technology Debt
Legacy code, quick fixes, and outdated tooling may keep things running. For now. But technical debt compounds. Eventually, it slows delivery, frustrates teams, and drives up long-term costs. Replatforming isn’t always necessary, but the strategy is.
When Tech Debt Grows, Innovation Slows
Quick fixes, outdated tools, and short-term thinking pile up. Tech debt eventually slows down not just your team but also growth and costs.
You may be facing:
- Code that's fragile, undocumented, or hard to extend
- Older frameworks that are no longer safe or supported
- Short-term features that create long-term complexity
- Slow development cycles and unpredictable releases
- Inconsistency between teams using different standards or systems
Why it happens:
- Speed was prioritized over scalability in the early stages
- Tools and frameworks haven't kept pace with your growth
- There's no clear architecture or code ownership
- Refactoring gets neglected or postponed
- Documentation and process discipline weren't enforced
