Model modernisation & calculation engines

Your critical spreadsheet model, rebuilt as a verified calculation engine.

Hathigen modernises legacy spreadsheet models and calculators. We reverse-engineer the logic of a workbook that only one person truly understands, rebuild it as a clean, documented calculation engine, prove it matches the original value by value, and wrap it in a fast, transparent app for your team, customers or partners.

From RM 8,000 · typically 2–6 weeks

What you get

Model modernisation & calculation engines, done properly.

Many companies depend on a legacy spreadsheet or calculator that only one person truly understands. We reverse-engineer its logic, rebuild it as a clean, documented calculation engine, prove it matches the original value by value, and wrap it in a fast, transparent app that your team, customers or partners can use with confidence.

  • Legacy workbook logic reverse-engineered and fully documented
  • A clean calculation engine, verified value by value against the original
  • Every result traceable back to its inputs and formulas
  • Sensitivity ranking ("which inputs matter most") and what-if scenarios
  • Licensed, locked copies for customers, distributors or sites
  • Built-in course so new users learn the thinking behind the model

One approach, many industries

Where a modernised calculation engine pays off

Engineering & design

Sizing, selection and design calculators that engineers and sales teams can trust and share.

Process & manufacturing

Capacity, yield and process calculations turned into tools operators can use safely.

Energy & utilities

Load, efficiency and costing calculations with clear scenarios for planning.

Pharma & food

Formulation and batch calculations as clear, auditable applications.

Quality & compliance

Calculation records with full traceability, ready for audits and reviews.

Sales & customer tools

Quotation and configuration engines released as locked, branded apps for customers and partners.

Delivery

From RM 8,000, typically 2–6 weeks. Every project gets a fixed-price quotation: 40% at the start, 40% at the working prototype and 20% at hand-over. Discovery and scoping is RM 1,500 for 1–2 days, credited to the project if it goes ahead. Prices in MYR, excluding SST where applicable.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

Can you turn our Excel model into an application?
Yes. We document every formula and dependency in the workbook, rebuild the logic as a calculation engine, verify it against the original value by value, and deliver it as a desktop or web app with traceable results.
How do we know the new engine gives the same answers?
Every output is compared with the original workbook across a wide range of inputs, and the comparison is delivered with the project. Where the original was wrong, we show you the evidence and agree the fix with you.
What if nobody understands the spreadsheet any more?
That is the most common starting point. We trace the logic cell by cell and write it up in plain language, so the knowledge no longer sits with one person.
How much does it cost?
Model modernisation projects start from RM 8,000 and typically take 2 to 6 weeks, depending on the size and complexity of the workbook.
Can customers use the calculator without seeing our formulas?
Yes. The engine can be released as a locked, licensed and branded app, so partners get the answers without access to your intellectual property.
