Insurance policy application modernization (HDI Group).
Since 2021, we have partnered with HDI Group on a Java and Vaadin modernization of a business-critical policy application. The work cut roughly 20 years of technology debt, reduced the codebase from about 450,000 to 250,000 lines, and shortened the release cycle from three months to one week.

Find Your Java Development Scenario
Not sure where to start? Match the scenario below to where your project is today. Each one points to the services and technical depth that apply.
New Project
Starting a new Java application from scratch? Our teams build enterprise applications and custom APIs, including high-performance API backends designed for scale from day one. Work runs from initial architecture through production deployment, using current frameworks and proven practices so the system stays maintainable after launch.
Taking Over or Maintaining an Existing Java/Spring Application
Inherited a Java or Spring application you did not build, and need a partner to keep it running? We offer Java consulting and code audits to assess the current state, then recommend maintenance, modernization, or further development.
Planning a Modernization
Still assessing whether and how to modernize a legacy Java system? That is a strategic conversation. Our system integration and modernization work starts with an assessment of your current architecture and a roadmap for the target state.
A Specific Technical Need
Already know what you need? We connect what we build with your existing software and processes. Here is our Java stack:
- Frameworks: Java 17+, Spring Boot, Spring Cloud, Quarkus
- Data access: Hibernate, JPA, Spring Data
- Messaging: Apache Kafka, RabbitMQ
- Containers and orchestration: Docker, Kubernetes
- CI/CD and build: Jenkins, GitLab CI, Maven, Gradle
- Cloud platforms: Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure
Security and Industries
How secure are our Java solutions? Security runs through every stage of our process. See Quality and Security below for details.
We bring this technical depth to Automotive, Logistics, Manufacturing, and Insurance. Automotive remains a particular area of depth: experience since 2006 and 44% of our published case studies. Insurance is backed by the named HDI Group partnership above.

What Sets Our Approach Apart
We staff projects with Agile Delivery Leads. An Agile Delivery Lead takes full responsibility for a project, the team, and agile cooperation with our customers. One person is accountable for outcomes.
Nearshore vs. Offshore vs. Onshore: Choosing Your Delivery Model
Nearshore (Hicron)
- Time zone overlap: Several hours of overlap with US business hours
- Communication speed: Real-time during the workday
- Cost: Below onshore rates
- Team continuity: Dedicated team embedded in your workflow
Offshore
- Time zone overlap: Minimal to none
- Communication speed: Often next-day turnaround
- Cost: Typically the lowest
- Team continuity: Varies by vendor
Onshore
- Time zone overlap: Full overlap
- Communication speed: Real-time
- Cost: Typically the highest
- Team continuity: Dedicated, at a premium

How We Work With You
We offer four ways to work together, chosen based on your goals, budget, and timeline:
Dedicated Java Consulting
Architecture reviews, codebase assessments, technology recommendations, and strategic guidance to optimize system performance and scalability. For teams that need expert input without a full delivery team.
Full Cycle Teams
A complete team that owns your Java project from architecture through deployment. One partner accountable for the whole build.
Nearshore Java Development
Development teams based in Poland, working in time zones aligned with your business hours. See Nearshore Java Development: How It Works above for details.
Staff Augmentation
Add experienced Java developers directly into your existing team, under your own management and processes, when you need more capacity without a separate delivery structure.
You Don’t Need a Separate Project Manager
With an Agile Delivery Lead owning your project, you do not need to hire a separate project manager or bring in outside consultants to keep delivery on track. One person is accountable for the project, the team, and how we work with you from day one.
Our Development Process
- Discovery and Strategy: Java consulting is our first step. We find out your objectives, challenges, and key requirements so the project starts on a strong foundation.
- Architecture and Design: Our team designs a reliable system and creates user experience wireframes so you always know what to expect.
- Agile Development: We build in sprints, provide regular updates, and use your feedback to ensure results that match your vision.
- Quality Assurance: Testing occurs throughout coding and before release, covering unit, integration, and end-to-end checks for a stable, reliable product.
- Deployment and Launch: CI/CD pipelines prepare your software to be delivered and set live efficiently, with minimal interruption.
- Support and Maintenance: Post-launch, our support keeps applications working well and adapts them to meet evolving goals.
