Who we support

Whether unifying repositories or scaling monorepo infrastructure, we provide expertise and strategies that integrate smoothly with your workflows—without disrupting team processes or deployment pipelines.

Growing Development Teams

Managing dependencies across separate codebases can lead to version conflicts and deployment issues. Monorepo consolidation removes coordination hassles while preserving team autonomy over individual services.

Microservices Organizations

Your distributed architecture requires changes across multiple services, but separate codebases make updates hard. Unified code management enables cross-service refactoring and consistent deployment while keeping services independent.

Platform Engineering Teams

Your organization manages many internal tools and libraries, but inconsistent tooling and fragmented codebases slow development. Centralized code architecture unifies build systems and workflows while supporting project-specific needs.

FAQs about monorepo engineering services

How long does codebase consolidation take?

Migration timelines depend on project complexity and history. Simple consolidations (3-5 projects) typically finish within 2-4 weeks. Enterprise migrations (many codebases and complex dependencies) can take 2-3 months to plan and execute.

What happens to our existing CI/CD pipelines?

We design migration strategies that maintain your current deployment processes while transitioning to monorepo-optimized workflows. Build systems detect affected projects and run selective tests, preserving deployment speed during the transition.

How do you handle team access control?

CODEOWNERS files and directory-based permissions help teams own their code, while still collaborating across projects. Branch protection rules and approval workflows maintain security without slowing down development.

Can we migrate repositories gradually?

We recommend phased migrations, starting with related projects or shared libraries. This helps teams adapt to monorepo workflows while staying productive on projects not yet migrated.

How do you prevent build performance issues?

Smart build systems like Nx and Bazel use dependency graphs to execute only affected projects. With distributed caching and incremental builds, this approach significantly reduces build times compared to building repositories separately.

What if monorepo doesn't work for us?

Repository architecture should match your organizational structure and workflow. We assess team communication and project dependencies before recommending monorepo adoption. We can also design hybrid approaches if full consolidation isn’t appropriate.
