Technology advisory and engineering · Fort Lauderdale · The Americas

We welcome problems they can’t fix.

Donnington Group takes on the technology engagements that have stalled, outgrown their teams, or carry too much risk to leave unresolved: software programme recovery, interim technology leadership, and the technology workstream of mergers and acquisitions.

What we do

Three engagements we are retained for

Each begins with an independent assessment and ends with a system that performs, documented, and a team equipped to operate it.

Software Programme Recovery

For programmes that have stalled, overrun, or lost their delivery partner. We establish what can be recovered, secure your intellectual property and source assets, stabilise the platform, and return delivery to a governed schedule.

How a recovery engagement runs

Interim and Fractional CTO

Executive-level technology leadership on the terms you need: an independent audit of infrastructure and the IT function, a technology strategy aligned to the business plan, and accountable direction of your existing team, remote or on site.

Discuss a technology audit

M&A Technology Integration

Technology due diligence and post-merger integration for transactions where systems, data and people must come together on a deadline. We map both estates, plan migration and integration, and manage execution to protect deal value.

Approach

How a recovery engagement runs

A fixed sequence with a written deliverable at each stage, so leadership always knows the position, the options, and what happens next.

  1. Discovery

    We establish the original objectives, how they have shifted, and the business outcome the programme must now deliver.

  2. Assessment

    An independent review of the codebase, architecture, vendors and contracts, with a candid view of whether recovery or rebuild is the better investment.

  3. Asset assurance

    Every client-owned asset, source code included, is located, secured and documented. You receive a written report and a recommended course of action.

  4. Stabilisation

    Where recovery is viable we halt further loss and restore a dependable build. Where it is not, we salvage and repurpose assets to shorten the rebuild.

  5. Delivery and handover

    Structured testing confirms the platform performs, followed by documentation, a support plan, and handover to your team.

The firm

A senior engineering team with two decades of delivery

Donnington Group is a team of software engineers and technology leaders who build, recover and integrate the systems enterprises depend on. For more than twenty years we have worked with organisations ranging from regional operators to multinationals, including the technology integration of multi-million-dollar mergers.

We are engaged for competence and candour. Every engagement starts with an independent assessment, carries a named senior lead, and is scoped to the problem rather than to a product we want to sell.
