Before changing your technical partner
You need a clear view of the platform's condition, technical risks and missing documentation before a new technical partner takes ownership.
Magento 2 technical audit and safe project takeover
I assess the codebase, infrastructure, extensions, integrations and release process, then produce a prioritised stabilisation and development plan. You get the evidence needed to change your technical partner or commit further budget with confidence.

When to get an independent view
When should you start with a Magento 2 technical audit?
When delivery has stalled
The project is over schedule or budget, the scope remains unclear and repeated fixes are not leading to a stable go-live.
Before a major investment
You are planning Hyvä, a new integration, an upgrade or a major feature and need to confirm that the existing codebase can support it.
When the store is unstable or slow
Outages, regressions, slow response times or poor Core Web Vitals point to systemic issues that another isolated patch will not solve.
Technical and operational scope
What the Magento 2 technical audit covers
I tailor the audit to the problem and the decision you need to make. It covers both the codebase and the wider technical setup needed to develop the platform safely.
Codebase and architecture
I review extensions, overrides, coding standards, testability, technical debt and the areas with the highest regression risk.
Versions, extensions and security
I check Magento and PHP versions, dependencies, security patches, installed extensions and the realistic upgrade path.
Infrastructure and deployments
I assess environments, caching, queues, cron jobs, logs, monitoring, backups and the release pipeline.
Integrations and data
I verify data flows with ERP, PIM, WMS, OMS and other systems, including error handling, retries and data integrity.
Frontend, UX and performance
I assess the theme, checkout, extension compatibility, Core Web Vitals and any friction affecting customers or the development team.
Delivery process and ownership
I review how requirements are defined, changes are tested and accepted, access is controlled and incidents are managed.
Deliverables
You receive a clear action plan, not an unprioritised list of issues
Executive summary
I explain the condition of the platform in plain English, show how the issues affect trading and operations, and identify the decisions your business needs to make.
Prioritised risk register
Each significant finding includes a priority rating, rationale, dependencies and recommended action.
30/60/90-day plan
I separate immediate stabilisation, required upgrades and longer-term development, so the team knows what to tackle first and why.
Options and next steps
I explain what can be fixed in stages, what needs a separate project, and whether ongoing support, a rebuild or a platform migration is the safer option.
A predictable audit process
How the technical audit and project takeover work
- Audit objectives and scopeWe define the decision the audit needs to support, the priority concerns, and the access and stakeholders required from your business.
- Technical assessmentI review the codebase, configuration, logs, infrastructure, integrations and documentation, then reproduce critical business scenarios.
- Findings and review sessionI present the findings, answer questions and work with you to prioritise remediation by business impact.
- Safe project takeoverIf we continue together, I secure and organise access, repositories, environments and ownership before delivering the stabilisation plan.
After the audit
After the technical audit, I can take over support and deliver the action plan
The technical audit is a standalone deliverable and does not commit you to further work. Your internal team or another technical partner can use the report and supporting materials.
If you choose to continue with me, I address critical issues first, then move into ongoing support and development against the agreed roadmap.
Technology partner
Why choose APK Studio?
I focus on the commercial outcomes that matter to clients. I build fast, conversion-focused online stores and B2B platforms that automate workflows and make sales teams more efficient.
I combine seven years of e-commerce experience with a commercial approach to technology. After go-live, I continue to support the platform’s development and the strategic decisions behind it.
Delivery assurance
A dependable delivery partner
Adobe-certified developer
The Adobe Commerce Front-End Developer Expert certification validates the skills needed to deliver Magento 2 storefronts correctly and reduces the risk of choosing the wrong development partner.
Integration expertise
I have delivered Magento 2 integrations with ERP platforms such as Microsoft Dynamics 365, NetSuite and SAP Business One, PIM platforms including Akeneo, and order management systems such as Linnworks and Brightpearl. This reduces the risk in one of the most complex parts of an e-commerce project.
Fixed-price budget certainty
I work to an agreed fixed price. Discovery defines the scope, architecture and acceptance criteria in enough detail to price the project properly, so there is no surprise at the end.
Working software every two weeks
I release working features to the test environment throughout the project. Your project lead can review them as they become available, keeping you in control of the delivery direction.

Customer reviews
What clients say about communication and project stabilisation
What stood out most was Artur’s prompt, professional communication, reliability and inventive approach to technical challenges. He achieved excellent results without unnecessary complexity. I would readily recommend APK Studio to any online retailer; the investment pays for itself remarkably quickly.
I would recommend working with Artur. He approaches every project professionally and pragmatically, proposing clear solutions that match the real requirement. The changes made the site more stable, resolved the issues we had reported and helped us win new customers. Delivery is smooth and free from unnecessary formality, with high-quality work at a fair, competitive price.
Artur has deep Magento 2 expertise and communicates in a direct, clear and goal-focused way. Before working with him, I tried several agencies in India and a number of freelancers but was not satisfied with the quality or communication. Artur delivers professionally and to a high standard. I would definitely recommend him.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions about Magento 2 technical audits and project takeovers
When should I start with a Magento 2 technical audit?
A technical audit is the right first step before changing your technical partner, when a project has stalled, before a major investment, or when the store is unstable, slow or repeatedly affected by regressions.
Does a technical audit mean I have to change my technical partner?
No. The audit is a standalone deliverable. Your current team, another technical partner or I can use the report, risk register and action plan. You decide who carries out the stabilisation and ongoing support.
What access do you need for a technical audit?
Depending on the scope, I may need access to the code repository, environments, configuration, logs, monitoring, documentation and systems connected to Magento. I provide an exact access checklist before the audit begins.
What will I receive at the end of the technical audit?
You receive a plain-English business summary, a prioritised risk register, technical recommendations and a 30/60/90-day plan. Each significant issue includes its priority, impact, dependencies and a recommended way forward.
How long does a Magento 2 technical audit take and how much does it cost?
The time and cost depend on the size of the codebase, the number of integrations, the available documentation and the decision the audit needs to support. After a short call, I confirm the scope, required access, timescale and price before the assessment begins.
Can you take over a project without complete documentation?
Yes. Missing documentation increases the discovery work, but it does not prevent a takeover. I rebuild the essential context from the codebase, configuration, logs, infrastructure and conversations with people who understand the business processes.
What happens after the technical audit if I choose to work with you?
I organise access, repositories, environments and ownership. I then deliver the agreed stabilisation plan, starting with critical risks, before moving into ongoing Magento 2 support and development.
