Understand First.Modernize with Confidence.
Genesis MKE helps teams document legacy systems with maps, rule catalogs, and reviewable specs so modernization can start from shared understanding. MDS Technologies Inc builds the product and can support delivery when needed.
Typical Outputs
Genesis MKE can produce reviewable artifacts that help stakeholders align before rebuild work begins.
Program Interaction Maps
Traceable call chains and dependency graphs across legacy portfolios.
Screen & Data Flows
Clear user journeys with field-level validation logic captured.
Business Rule Catalogs
Rules linked to source locations with review-ready explanations.
Modernization Specs
Approved specifications that become the contract for delivery.
Genesis MKE Product
A product that transforms legacy systems into reviewable, traceable artifacts—so teams validate understanding before any rebuild begins.
Interaction Maps
Visual call chains and dependency maps across your legacy portfolio.
Screen & Data Flows
Documented user journeys with field-level validation captured from legacy logic.
Business Rule Catalogs
Traceable rules linked to source locations with review-ready explanations.
Modernization Specs
Reviewable specifications that guide delivery teams.
Why It Matters
Modernization succeeds more often when understanding is explicit, shared, and traceable. Genesis MKE helps teams validate understanding before writing new code—aligning stakeholders early and helping reduce avoidable churn.
How It Works
A systematic, traceable pipeline from legacy code to reviewable modernization specs
Ingest
Parse Legacy Assets
Parsers extract structured representations from COBOL programs, BMS screen maps, copybooks, JCL, and database schemas into a normalized intermediate representation.

About MDS Technologies
MDS Technologies Inc is a senior-led engineering firm focused on high-stakes modernization initiatives.
We build the Genesis MKE product and deliver modernization services around it. Our work emphasizes clarity, traceability, and risk-aware delivery while preserving the institutional knowledge embedded in legacy systems.
Our work emphasizes:
- Evidence-driven discovery
- Human-in-the-loop validation
- Reviewable artifacts and delivery
- Operational readiness planning
"Modernization is an understanding problem first—then a re-expression problem. We work to make both reviewable."
Tell Us What You're Modernizing
Share your legacy stack, scope, and constraints. We'll propose a phased approach with clear artifacts and next steps. No production data required up front.
What happens next
