The Approach

Mapping Risks and Constraints

We listed system dependencies, mapped all data structures, and flagged critical features that couldn't break.

Upgrade Strategy

Planned a direct jump from Drupal 6 to 10 using AI automation to bridge over unsupported upgrade paths.

Custom Theme and Data Logic Rebuild

Recreated templates, fields, and views from scratch using modern Drupal standards.

Live Clone Migration

Cloned the full site and ran the upgrade in a separate environment to prevent disruption.

Data Regression Checks

AI bots compared old and new layouts, validated links, fields, and permissions.

Legacy-to-Modern Transformation

We upgraded the full system in six months. All legacy content, accounts, and features were preserved. The new platform runs on Drupal 10, is mobile-ready, and supports modern hosting. Not a single user reported a broken feature after launch.
