The Transitions department is responsible for extracting and transferring data from legacy systems to LEAP for clients globally. The department is not only responsible for the technical aspects but also manages client's expectations in relation to data collection, migration and LEAP implementation.

Data Migration Specialists use the proprietary migration tools available as well as technical expertise to ensure data moving from a legacy system is properly migrated and checked prior to uploading into LEAP.
