Application Frameworks Information

Application Frameworks (AFW) is a boutique enterprise software consultancy specialising in Microsoft .NET, C#, Oracle, and the modernisation of business-critical software systems. For more than 25 years, we have helped organisations build, extend, optimise, and support enterprise applications where reliability, scalability, and performance are essential. We specialise in rescuing and modernising legacy systems, enabling clients to extend the life of valuable software while adopting modern technologies. Our expertise includes migration from .NET Framework to modern .NET, Oracle database development and PL/SQL, database performance optimisation, enterprise architecture, and high-volume transaction processing. We are particularly effective in environments where systems are large, long-lived, and require careful evolution rather than complete replacement. AFW also has specialist domain knowledge in Standard Transfer Specification (STS) electricity and gas prepayment systems, having delivered solutions for utility organisations for many years. Unlike large consulting firms, our clients work directly with highly experienced senior engineers who quickly understand complex business and technical challenges and deliver practical, maintainable solutions.
