1
Situation assessment
Capture goals, constraints, and existing platform structures – as the basis for all subsequent decisions. This includes technical starting point, compliance requirements, and organisational constraints.
Container. Open Source. Solutions.
Structured approach to platform architecture
From assessment to operational readiness — structured, prioritised, and documented. View approach
Four-step approach
Every engagement follows the same four phases – regardless of scope and starting point. This ensures consistency, traceability, and a clean handover at the end.
2
Define target architecture & guardrails
Develop target architecture – with guardrails for security, governance, and the operating model. The result is a documented target state that serves as the decision basis for all subsequent steps.
3
Structure roadmap & prioritisation
Translate target architecture into delivery stages – with priorities, dependencies, owners, and milestones. Quick wins and long-term measures are clearly separated and sequenced.
4
Accompany implementation & ensure operability
Embed standards and transfer knowledge to the team – with documentation, runbooks, and a clear handover. The goal is a platform your team operates and evolves independently.
Typical artefacts
Every engagement ends with concrete, documented artefacts – not presentations that end up in a drawer, but foundations for day-to-day operations.
