The Problem We Solve
IBM i still runs the operations that keep warehouses, distributors and manufacturers moving. It is stable, proven and deeply embedded. But hosting and disaster recovery fall behind, security needs constant attention, and the people who know the platform are getting harder to hire. Replatforming is expensive and risky. Doing nothing is riskier.
SC Codeworks gives you a third option: hand the environment to a team that has run production IBM i for 30 years, and get back uptime, security and a clear modernization path, on your schedule.

SECURITY, MONITORING AND BACKUP
Security patching, active monitoring and reliable backups, hosted in a professionally managed, high-availability data center.
MODERNIZE AT YOUR PACE
A clear path from green screen to modern web on your timeline, with no risky rip-and-replace. Keep what works while you move forward.
DEEP PLATFORM EXPERTISE
Thirty years of production IBM i, with real RPG, DDS and DB2 depth. We write and maintain the application code, not just the infrastructure.
ON-SHORE SUPPORT, LOW TURNOVER
Our support staff average roughly 20 years of tenure, and most come from warehouse and logistics backgrounds, so they understand the operation, not just the server.
Proof on the Platform
20+ Years Keeping a Mission-Critical IBM i Running
International Distribution Corp, a family-owned chemical 3PL in Pasadena, Texas, runs more than 1,000,000 square feet of warehouse space, including a 317,000 square foot HAZMAT facility serving chemical manufacturers around the Port of Houston. For more than 20 years, their mission-critical operation has run on IBM i, with dangerous-goods compliance, lot tracking, ERP integration and multi-client billing, kept running on the platform the whole time.
"It's nice having a team working on a program who have actually sat in my spot before. We have a lot of different vendors, and I'd say that SC Codeworks is the most responsive."

Also run a warehouse?
Our warehouse management system is built on this same IBM i platform, so managed services and WMS work together seamlessly when you need both. You do not need the WMS to buy managed services, and you do not need managed services to buy the WMS.
Explore the WMSFrequently Asked Questions
Do I need your warehouse system to buy IBM i Managed Services?
No. IBM i Managed Services is a standalone offering. We host, secure, support and modernize your IBM i environment whatever runs on it. If you also operate a warehouse, our WMS is built on this same platform and integrates cleanly, but it is optional, not a requirement.
What is IBM i (iSeries) and why does it still matter?
IBM i, historically known as the iSeries or AS/400, is IBM's integrated business platform. It still runs the core operations of many warehouses, distributors and manufacturers because it is stable, proven and deeply embedded in day-to-day operations.
What does SC Codeworks IBM i Managed Services include?
We offer three tiers. Care covers managed hosting, OS and PTF currency, monitoring and backups. Complete adds disaster recovery and high availability, security patching and an RPG and DDS application-support bench. Enterprise adds a dedicated support bench, custom SLAs and a modernization roadmap.
Do you provide high availability and disaster recovery?
Yes. We run high availability and replication tooling on IBM i in production so your environment can survive a hardware or site event.
Can you help modernize our green-screen applications?
Yes. In the Enterprise tier we build a modernization roadmap from green screen to modern web, delivered on your timeline rather than through a rip-and-replace.
Do you support RPG, DDS and DB2?
Yes. Our team writes and maintains the application code, not just the infrastructure, and we can modernize IBM i applications to modern web front ends where you want them.
