Tamae maps what your estate contains against what the software needs. You share a machine-readable version at kickoff, so all parties work from your estate instead of asking you to describe it.
What the software needs isn’t written down in one place. It gets assembled by hand, mid-project, by people who are already busy — and what was missing only shows up once the work has started.
Horváth (2025), 200 enterprise platform transformations — respondents named underestimated data migration among the main causes.
The picture of your estate is spread across systems and half of it sits in people’s heads. Whatever was written down describes how things were, not how they are.
So what you send is incomplete in ways neither side can see. Both parties work from it anyway, until something doesn’t line up.
The same missing detail costs days before kickoff and months after. Found late enough, it blocks the project outright.
You can’t commit to a date you can’t scope. The vendor can’t staff or sequence delivery, and can’t get you live and seeing value.
Connect your source systems. Tamae builds the picture, keeps it current as the estate moves, and hands all teams something machine-readable at kickoff.
Point Tamae at the estate — schemas, on-disk layout, volumes, query history. Read-only, and it stays in your environment.
Every table and column mapped against what the target platform actually needs from it. Your team reviews before anything is confirmed.
The systems keep moving while the project runs. The map moves with them, so scoping done in month one is still true in month four.
What has no equivalent in the target, what replays, what needs a decision — each with an owner against it, before it becomes a blocker.
All teams get a machine-readable version to work from directly, instead of interpreting a document or asking you to describe your setup. Export it, or share a password-gated link.
The mapping happens during the sales cycle, so you reach kickoff ready instead of finding out at kickoff.
All teams work from the map directly. Nobody re-keys it, nobody interprets it, nothing is lost in the reading.
Tamae reads the estate from your side. What crosses to the vendor is the mapping, and you decide when it does.
The loader, the platform tuning, the cutover and the sign-off stay with your team and the engineers.
The map tracks the estate as it changes, so scoping doesn’t go stale halfway through the project.
The next migration starts from a current picture of the estate, across platforms and across projects, instead of building one again from scratch.
The client arrives at kickoff with a mapped estate, so scoping stops being the thing holding up the contract.
The repeatable mapping layer, done once — instead of your implementation team rebuilding it differently on every engagement.
Clients who reach production quickly expand. The ones stuck in implementation churn.
