What we do

Securing What Matters. Modernizing What's Next.

By prioritizing mission-critical stability alongside high-impact modernization, we do more than replace legacy code  we execute a phased roadmap where deep mainframe expertise meets modern engineering. Every stage is validated against the systems it replaces, so functional parity and zero disruption aren’t afterthoughts they’re the plan.  See some of our wok:

Capabilities

Where Legacy Expertise Meets Modern Engineering.

Few teams can read 50-year-old Assembler code and also build its cloud-ready replacement. ACG does both.

Mainframe transformation, cloud integration, Salesforce engineering, cybersecurity and program management come together in one accountable team. That’s how we deliver measurable results on the IRS’s most critical systems.

Code Modernization

Translating decades of legacy Assembler and COBOL logic into modern, maintainable Java.

Audit & Compliance

Documentation and testing built to meet federal ELC and audit standards from day one.

Financial
Optimization

Streamlining capital allocation and improving long-term fiscal health.

PROVEN AT SCALE

Modernizing the systems behind 140 million taxpayer accounts, without missing a beat.
