Modernizing a 15-Year-Old Logistics Platform With Zero Downtime
A regional logistics enterprise needed to replace a fragile legacy dispatch system without disrupting live operations. We delivered a phased, zero-downtime migration to a modern cloud architecture.
January 22, 2026
Meridian Logistics ran its entire dispatch operation on a monolithic system built in the early 2010s. Every attempted upgrade risked breaking live freight tracking, and the original engineering team had long since moved on.
We started with a full architecture audit and reverse-engineered the undocumented business logic before writing a single line of new code. From there, we designed a phased migration: new services were built and validated against live traffic in shadow mode before any cutover, so dispatchers never lost access to a working system.
The result was a modern, cloud-native dispatch platform delivered with zero unplanned downtime, a 4.1x improvement in page load time, and a 40% reduction in monthly infrastructure spend. Meridian's internal engineering team now owns the codebase, with full documentation and architecture diagrams handed over at project close.
They rebuilt a fifteen-year-old logistics platform without a single day of downtime. The team communicated like an in-house engineering group, not an outside vendor.
