Metatech Completes Integration into TXP as Demand for Gen Modernisation Accelerates
Birmingham, UK – 1st April 2026 – TXP today announced the full integration of Metatech, a specialist with an established and recognised reputation in automated Gen modernisation, marking the formal completion of a journey that has already transformed the breadth and depth of TXP’s Gen capability. Metatech’s expertise, team and proprietary automation tooling now sit entirely within TXP’s portfolio, strengthening TXP’s position as one of the most authoritative and capable Gen modernisation partners in the market.
This integration comes at a crucial moment for organisations operating mission-critical Gen estates. Demand for modernisation continues to accelerate, driven by rising licensing costs, shrinking specialist talent pools, regulatory pressure, and the urgent need for scalable, cloud-ready platforms. TXP’s unified capability directly addresses this market need with a proven, automation-led approach that reduces risk, shortens delivery timelines and preserves decades of embedded business logic.
A Growing Global Demand for Gen Transformation
The broader legacy modernisation market reflects the scale of this opportunity: valued at nearly $25 billion in 2025 and projected to grow at more than 17% annually, the demand for modernisation services continues to accelerate as organisations across financial services, insurance, government and regulated industries seek pathways to de-risk legacy platforms and move towards modern architectures without jeopardising stability or operational continuity.
As part of TXP, Metatech brings a track record of delivering some of the world’s largest and most complex Gen migration programmes, combining deep domain expertise with highly specialised automation tooling. This includes TXP MigrationWorks, the industry-recognised software suite that enables predictable, automated code conversion across COBOL, Java and .NET target technologies, while maintaining fidelity to core business behaviour.
One Team. One Capability. One Proven Modernisation Engine.
By bringing TXP’s consulting, engineering and delivery strength together with Metatech’s Gen conversion expertise, clients now benefit from a single, end-to-end modernisation capability, from discovery and assessment through model preparation to automated conversion, adaptation, integration and deployment. This unified proposition is already recognised globally by clients and partners alike.
“This is a natural and powerful next step,” said John Antunes, CEO of TXP. “Metatech has been part of the TXP group for some time, and the integration formalises the reality of how we already work: one unified team delivering modernisation with certainty, pace and deep technical capability and credibility. Our clients can expect the same people, the same expertise and the same trusted delivery, now amplified through the full TXP delivery platform.”
What This Means for Clients and Partners
For all existing Metatech clients, nothing changes. The same specialists, the same tooling and the same standard of technical excellence remain firmly in place. What continues to strengthen is the platform around them: increased engineering capacity, broader expertise, and integrated capability across cloud, future AI, DevOps, full-stack engineering and modern architectures.
TXP’s partners also gain a clearer and more scalable route to support joint Gen transformation programmes, backed by TXP’s modernisation frameworks, multi-disciplinary teams and proven delivery governance.
