UCV and UPD Were Released for Pilot Testing on September 30. Exactly as Planned
HAIFA met its planned deadline: UCV and UPD were released for pilot testing on September 30, 2026. The Helios Fenix migration reached another milestone in accounting statements and database maintenance.
Summary for Non-Technical Readers
UCV and UPD were released for pilot testing on September 30, 2026, exactly as planned. The HAIFA team, Helios AI Factory, thereby met another important milestone in NEO_HEF, the project migrating Helios Fenix from its original VB6 technology to .NET.
UCV handles accounting statements, while UPD handles database upgrades and maintenance. Each supports a different kind of work, and both now enter practical verification. Following the earlier RZP pilot handover, this is another step in the gradual migration of the whole system.
Two Modules, Two Different Quality Demands
For UCV, the numbers, assembly and validation rules, saving, exports, and print outputs must all be correct. Users need to continue their familiar workflows and receive results matching the original Fenix. A substantial part of preparation therefore involved comparing actual outputs, including historical years and summaries covering multiple organizations.
UPD works on the database itself. The migration covers upgrade procedures, creation of database objects, registration, and maintenance operations. Alongside correct execution, the application must clearly record progress, recognize errors, and terminate appropriately. Preparation covered functional paths and maintenance-form controls.
The joint handover extends migration experience to both accounting workflows and a tool essential to the system's technical administration.
Meeting the Deadline Also Matters to HAIFA's Way of Working
HAIFA develops processes intended to enable software development with AI agents that is collaborative, controlled, and predictable. NEO_HEF is the concrete project in which this approach is being tested.
Releasing both modules on the scheduled day therefore matters to project management too. The planned deadline became a concrete handover for testing. It was preceded by implementation, comparisons with the original application, fixes, and preparation for the next phase.
Recent weeks also demonstrated the value of thorough verification. Comparisons of complete prints and actual database queries found defects that narrower tests had missed. These results help refine the process for further Fenix modules.
What Comes with the Pilot
Pilot testing is intended to verify how the migrated modules behave in practical work. The next phase will bring feedback, verification of specific scenarios, and further fixes as the results require.
As of September 30, the milestone is clear: UCV and UPD were released for pilot testing on schedule. The pilot results will provide further evidence for decisions about wider deployment.
Preparation before handover is described in the week twenty-nine report.
