IT Architecture

IT Architecture

Supporting your technology strategy


We can help by:
  • Designing and implementing architectural governance processes
  • Being a design authority or supporting to your existing design authority as an external advisor
  • Helping you develop your architecture domain landscape and roadmaps and other artefacts
  • Supporting the production of architectural policies, standards and procedures
Organisations who implement an architecture function look to provide a framework to co-ordinate and control the Information Technology estate so it is best aligned to meet the business vision and strategy as it evolves, whilst minimising “architectural debt”. This can provide organisations with the following key benefits:
  •  Alignment between IT and the business
  • Minimised gaps and diversity in the landscape to reduce risk, costs, and complexity
  • Visibility of the target architecture to ensure an organisational view is implemented rather than a project or departmental view - “building for the future not for the present”
  • Greater efficiency in IT service delivery
  • Greater cost control with more focus on investing appropriately for the future, rather than just keeping the show on the road
  • A clear design authority to ensure alignment of designs to corporate policies and standards
  • An accountable decision making process
  • Understanding the impacts of deviation from strategy
  • Increased agility to support organisational change
  • Increased interoperability between systems
