Decision-led, AI-accelerated data migration. Delivered deterministically.
Consulting judgement sets the rules; code-printing and validators make cutovers predictable.
How it works
What we do
Low-risk data migration for complex ERPs
elfware delivers low-risk data migration for complex ERPs and planning/decisioning platforms. We combine senior consulting judgement with AI-assisted optioning to accelerate discovery and configuration, then generate, orchestrate, and validate delivery artefacts deterministically. The result is faster prototypes, cleaner reconciliations, repeatable rehearsals, and more confident cutovers, without relying on “heroics” or last-minute script edits.
AI boundary: AI never processes customer data; it supports mapping and delivery configuration only. When AI assists with code generation, the output is reviewed, QA'd, and verified in test runs before deployment to any system.
How it works
Human decisions, AI speed, deterministic delivery
We start with human-led decisions: scope, rules, exceptions, acceptance criteria, and the evidence you'll use to sign off. AI helps explore options and highlight gaps, but custom logic is reviewed and QA'd before deployment. Production delivery is deterministic: governed specs and templates drive code-printed mappings, orchestration, and repeatable runs. Deterministic validators then produce objective pass/fail evidence (reconciliation results, lineage, and audit-ready proof) so every rehearsal improves certainty and reduces cutover risk.
Risk controls
Engineered gates for safer cutovers
Most migration risk comes from ambiguity, spreadsheet drift, and manual script changes. elfware reduces that risk with engineered controls: regeneration-first delivery (change the model, reprint the code), deterministic validation gates, traceable artefacts, and repeatable rehearsals. You get measurable checks at each step: data completeness, referential integrity, balances, deltas, and business rules. Issues surface early and are fixed once, not rediscovered late.
Adaptor flywheel
Your programme inherits speed from the ones before it
Most migration programmes rebuild the same connectors and mapping decisions from scratch. We do not. We codify repeatable decisions into templates, compile reusable adaptors for common sources and targets, then harden them with deterministic validators and evidence packs. That means your first load starts closer to production, reruns are predictable, and cutover is calmer. This is how programmes move from weeks to days without adding risk, even when history runs to terabytes across store x SKU x time.
If it cannot be regenerated and revalidated, it is not controlled.
We reuse patterns and tooling, never client data.
Prototype faster
Start from proven adaptors, not blank sheets.
Fewer defects
Validator-backed loads and evidence packs from day one.
Lower cutover risk
Deterministic reruns, clear lineage, audit-ready outputs.

Where we fit
At the intersection of human decisioning and deterministic delivery
We sit at the intersection of human decisioning and deterministic delivery. If you're implementing planning/decisioning platforms (like Relex and Board) or modernising ERPs, we help you migrate and reconcile data with speed, repeatability, and audit-ready evidence, without turning the programme into a manual scripting exercise.
