Enterprise Architecture

A target architecture your teams actually use.

Enterprise architecture often ends as a repository nobody opens. Ours starts with the decisions you need to make in the next twelve months and works backwards to the models that support them.

Start with a 4-week architecture assessment

The problem we solve

Architecture teams are asked for a roadmap and end up maintaining a repository. Models grow, decisions still happen in meetings nobody records, and the target state is out of date within a quarter.

What you get

You get a target state, a sequenced roadmap and a short list of principles that settle arguments before they start.

  • A current-state map of applications, integrations and capabilities, at the level of detail decisions require and no more
  • A target architecture and a roadmap sequenced by value and risk
  • Architecture principles and decision records (ADRs)
  • Governance that fits your delivery model, from a review board to a lightweight tech radar

How we work

Questions we are often asked

Do we need an EA tool before we start?

No. We work in the tools you already have, and introduce a repository only when the decisions need one.

How long before we see a roadmap?

The assessment produces a target state and a sequenced roadmap in four weeks.

Will the architecture outlive the engagement?

That is the point of the governance work: decision records, principles and a review cadence your teams run without us.
