The Production Upgrade: carry out the priorities

The Production Upgrade programme

You do not need to wait for an application to become blocked before asking for advice. During a Lovable build, KERN-IT offers coaching where you make the changes yourself. The Production Upgrade starts when you entrust us with changes to the code or infrastructure. This boundary is explained on our Lovable expert in Belgium page.

For an existing app whose condition first needs to be measured, the Scan establishes the findings and their priority. The Production Upgrade then carries out the agreed actions, with a scope, price and expected result for each workstream.

Workstream 1: address confirmed security issues

Secrets in the browser, overly broad access rules, client-side-only authentication and vulnerable dependencies are addressed when they are actually present. Tests demonstrate each correction. Our Supabase RLS guide explains one common example.

Workstream 2: move the components that need to move

A GitHub repository does not necessarily contain production data, user accounts, files, secrets or deployment configuration. Depending on the platform and project, we migrate or reconfigure the components that should move under your control. Existing data and users are included in the cutover strategy.

Workstream 3: make the app maintainable

Clear structure, tests for critical journeys, usable history and a reproducible deployment allow another developer to take over without relying on our memory.

Workstream 4: make production observable

Hosting, domains, backups, logs and alerts are configured to match the service the app is expected to provide. The selected infrastructure and responsibilities are documented.

Budget and handover

The quote follows the Scan roadmap. Each workstream has a cost, dependencies and acceptance criteria. At the end, you receive the code, documented access, operating notes and a project that can be continued with us, another team or internally.
