Adobe Workflow & Code Assessments
Find out what needs to change before committing to development. Review an Adobe workflow, investigate an existing plug-in or assess a proposed integration with Mapsoft.
What an Assessment Can Cover
Workflow Review
Walk through the current process using representative documents. Identify repeated work, failure points and the parts that could be automated.
Code & Compatibility Review
Inspect an existing plug-in or script, reproduce the reported problem and identify repair or migration options for the required Adobe versions.
Integration Feasibility
Review the systems, data formats and Adobe application involved. Identify technical dependencies and any questions that need a prototype.
Agree the Deliverables First
The assessment scope can include a written findings summary, recommended approach, open risks and an outline of the development work. We agree the scope and price before starting. Implementation is a separate decision.

How We Work
1. Discovery
We begin by understanding your current workflows, pain points, and objectives. We review your existing tools, document volumes, and team structure to identify where the greatest improvements can be made. If your project involves confidential information, we're happy to sign a mutual NDA before discussions begin — download our template or share your own.
2. Analysis & Recommendations
We document the findings, explain the options and identify what remains uncertain. Where sample data supports an estimate of time saved, we state the assumptions.
3. Implementation Support
If you want to proceed, we can scope the development or integration work separately. Agree the implementation deliverables and acceptance criteria before work begins.
4. Measurable Results
Choose measures that fit the task, such as processing time, manual steps or repeatable output checks. Agree how these will be assessed using representative documents.
"The software repaid its costs through time saved in a matter of days."
