Capability 01
Application modernizationand cloud
We move legacy federal applications onto supported platforms, automate the delivery path, and keep mission systems running through the transition.

Practice scope
Modernize in increments the mission can absorb.
The work starts with the existing application, its users, and the accredited environment—not with a preferred product.
Secure agile software development
Requirements are organized in agile backlogs as epics, features, and user stories. Two-week sprints include planning, daily stand-ups, backlog refinement, demonstrations, and retrospectives.
Application and platform modernization
Unsupported applications are rebuilt on a common, maintainable stack. Technology choices account for security requirements, product-owner workflows, and the agency’s support model.
CI/CD implementation
Pipelines automate build, test, and release steps. Code review and repeatable deployments reduce variation between development and government environments.
Low-code and no-code delivery
SharePoint Online, Dataverse, Power Apps, Power Automate, and Power BI are used where they lower delivery and maintenance cost without weakening governance.
Azure cloud migration and operations
Applications, databases, and files move to Azure Government Cloud with agency access, policy, monitoring, backup, and continuity requirements resolved before cutover.
Delivery method
A controlled path from inventory to operations.
Each increment leaves an inspectable record: backlog items, acceptance criteria, test results, release artifacts, and operating documentation.
-
01
Assess
Inventory applications, dependencies, data stores, custom code, identity requirements, and infrastructure constraints.
-
02
Set target
Select the supported platform with the agency and sequence prioritized backlog items around live operations.
-
03
Build/
test/ demonstrate Deliver in two-week increments with automated build and test pipelines, then review working software with product owners.
-
04
Cut over/
sustain Coordinate deployment, continuity measures, and owner training, then support the system after release.
Modernization register
Legacy state to supported target.
These are documented migration paths used across Kurrent Logic engagements. The target is selected against the application, not applied by default.
| Legacy state | Supported target | Delivery consideration |
|---|---|---|
| Unsupported tech stacks | Full stack: Angular, .NET, Entity Framework, SQL ServerLow-code: Power Apps, Power Automate, Power BI | A shared stack reduces duplicated assessment and lets engineers work across the portfolio. Teams pair that with AI-assisted development to shorten the path from requirement to working increment. |
| On-premises applications | Azure App Service | Identity, network access, configuration, and monitoring are resolved with the agency cloud team. |
| On-premises databases and file storage | Azure SQL Database and Azure Blob Storage | Storage lifecycle tiers and backup requirements are set against access and continuity needs. |
| SharePoint 2016 sites | SharePoint Online modern sites | Owners remain involved through requirements review, testing, migration, and administrator training. |
| InfoPath forms and SharePoint Designer workflows | Modern list forms, Power Apps, and Power Automate | Custom behavior is understood and rebuilt instead of carrying unsupported components forward. |
