OJS/PKP migration

Controlled journal migration to Open Journal Systems, with data integrity and continuity at the centre.

Technology in context

Built around publishing continuity.

Harrowell treats an OJS/PKP migration as a publishing transition. The work covers the journal’s content, files, users, metadata, configurations, workflows and service readiness—not just a technical transfer.

What we do

Technology work with clear operational ownership.

Inventory and mapping

Establish what must move and how it will be represented in the new environment, including journal content, files, records, users and identifiers.

Configuration and testing

Configure OJS/PKP around real editorial and publishing workflows, then run test migrations, validation and acceptance checks.

Controlled go-live

Coordinate go-live, communications, operational handover and early-stage support so the journal moves into a stable service environment.

The result

Infrastructure that can be understood and managed.

  • A documented, validated migration
  • Greater confidence in data and record integrity
  • OJS/PKP configured around the journal’s actual work
  • A supported route from go-live to stable delivery
