Replatforming on Exit

The DORA continuity provider that replatforms and runs.

When your critical ICT vendor fails — or you simply need the certainty — a standing retainer obligates DORAssure to activate within 48 hours. We don't just keep the lights on: we replatform the system to modern standards, then operate it for you or hand it over fully rebuilt. Even if you never trigger it, it's the continuity guarantee your procurement and compliance teams demand.

The Escrow Problem: Paper plans aren't continuity.

Most exit plans rely on source code escrow — a legacy model designed for IP protection, not operational survival. In a systemic failure, having a disk of code is useless without the institutional knowledge to run it.

"[Firms should] develop exit plans that are comprehensive, documented and sufficiently tested." — ESMA, Guidelines on Outsourcing to Cloud Service Providers (Guideline 5: Exit strategies)

From Readiness to Operations

A complete five-phase engagement — from pre-trigger knowledge capture through to a replatformed, fully operational system.

01

Gather

Before any trigger, we work with your team to capture architecture, runbooks, and operational knowledge. If activation comes, we're already ready.

02

Trigger

For convenience. For material breach. For vendor insolvency. Pre-agreed terms mean activation is immediate.

03

Step-In

Within 48 hours, our engineering team assumes operational control and keeps critical services running.

04

Replatform

Full rebuild to modern standards — clean IP, auditable architecture, regulatory-grade documentation.

05

Operate

SaaS managed service or Build & Train handover — your choice, agreed before signing.

Two Paths Forward on Trigger

Your outcome model is agreed before signing — no decisions to make under pressure.

assured_workload

SaaS Model

DORAssure replatforms and operates the system as a long-term managed service. We own the IP, you get a fully operational, continuously evolved platform — without the overhead of an internal tech team. Clear ownership, no disputes.

move_up

Build & Train

We replatform the system and transfer full IP ownership to you. Our team trains your internal staff, provides comprehensive documentation, and supports a structured 6–12 month transition. You walk away fully independent, with a modern codebase you own outright.

For technology vendors

Offer your clients a drop-in continuity operator.

Your financial-sector clients are now required, under DORA, to evidence a tested exit and continuity path for the critical systems you provide. You don't have to build that capability in-house. Partner with DORAssure as your designated stand-in operator: if you ever fail, are acquired, or wind down a product, Resivia steps in, keeps your clients' systems running, and replatforms them — turning a procurement objection into a selling point. Your clients get the continuity assurance their regulators demand; you get a stickier, more compliant offering without carrying the obligation yourself.

No internal continuity team required — the obligation sits with Resivia, contractually.

48-hour activation

SLA-backed timeline to assume operational control of critical endpoints.

Retainer-backed step-in

A standing retainer obligates Resivia to step in and replatform on trigger — not a best-efforts promise but a contractual commitment your procurement and compliance teams can rely on.

Active build environment

A continuously maintained deployment environment — ready to compile, test, and deploy within 48 hours of activation. Not an archive.

DORAssure vs. Legacy Providers

Capability Legacy Providers DORAssure
Time to operational 6–12 months (recovery) 48 hours (activation)
Quarterly exercises Simple code verification Full build & deploy test
Post-activation strategy None (self-managed) Immediate operations + replatforming
Replatforming on exit Not included Core deliverable — modern architecture, clean IP
On-call engineers No Yes (24/7/365)
Code currency Static snapshots Live mirroring
IP clarity Legal ambiguity Contractual certainty — client chooses the model
Long-term options Run legacy code, if possible SaaS managed service or Build & Train handover

Commercial Modules

One engagement: setup fee, optional annual retainer, and pre-agreed fees that activate on trigger.

Ongoing Prep optional

Annual retainer

Continuous codebase sync, documentation upkeep, environment hosting, and quarterly readiness exercises.

Activation

On trigger

Pre-agreed step-in fee — 48-hour operational takeover, critical services maintained, incumbent vendor liaison.

Replatforming

On trigger

Pre-agreed rebuild fee — full modernisation to current standards, clean IP, auditable architecture and regulatory-grade documentation.

Operate & Transition

Pre-agreed

Ongoing fee — SaaS managed service (we run it) or Build & Train handover (you run it). Model chosen at contract signing.
