Engineering for Scale & Impact

We bring enterprise-grade detail to every project, whether it's a State Agency migration or a Community Non-profit MVP.

1. Start With Clarity

Before we write a line of code, we diagnose the problem. Choose the assessment that fits your needs.

Codebase Health Check

A rapid assessment to identify security risks, "End of Life" components, and quick wins.

  • Code Analysis
  • Automated Security Scan (OWASP)
  • 5-Page "Red Flag" Report
  • 60-Minute Expert Review Call or Coffee Shop Meeting

Strategic Migration Roadmap

A complete architectural blueprint. We map out exactly how to move your legacy system to the cloud.

  • Everything in Health Check
  • Database Dependency Mapping
  • Cloud Cost Analysis (Azure vs DO)
  • Full "Lift & Shift" Execution Plan
FOR NEW IDEAS

MVP Solution Design

Don't build blindly. We turn your vision into a technical spec sheet ready for development.

  • Core User Journey Mapping (Epics)
  • Tech Stack Selection (Greenfield)
  • Cloud Architecture Diagram
  • Development Cost Estimate
  • "Build vs Buy" Analysis

2. Community & Impact Partnerships

We believe technology should empower everyone. Are you a Non-Profit, a Community Organization, or a diverse Founder with a vision but a limited budget?

Core Lift reserves 20% of our capacity for "Impact Projects." We offer sliding-scale pricing, technical mentorship, and MVP architecture for projects that serve the West Sacramento community.
