Don't forget that (unless it changed in V7) a UPDPGM will not cause the embedded "what used" information to be updated. So if the in-house tool depends on that data to determine what needs to be recompiled then UPDPGM is not a good idea.

I think it should be easy to at least change the tool to do UPDPGM if
the pgm exists already instead of crtpgm. I'll try and test that. Are
you sure that would work in all circumstances?
I know of no scenarios where this would not work.
As for changing to srvpgm, that's what I was worried about : all those
files that stay open, global and static variables,... It looks like
we'd have to go through every job to make sure that the difference in
behaviour of the new programs does not have any effect. Should we
start by eliminating the use of the dftactgrp while still using
binding by copy?
Sounds reasonable to me.
