Services
Architecture consulting that turns strategy into practical delivery—roadmaps, blueprints, and pilots that de-risk transformation.
Enterprise & solution architecture
Define target-state architecture and the transition plan needed to deliver safely in regulated and high-scale environments.
Deliverables
- Target-state architecture (capabilities, systems, integration)
- Transition states and sequencing plan
- Architecture decision records (ADRs) and standards
- NFR baseline: performance, resilience, security, operability
- Design authority setup and governance cadence
Cloud strategy & modernisation
A clear approach to modernisation: what to move, how to move it, and how to operate it securely and efficiently.
Deliverables
- Cloud strategy and operating model (hybrid where needed)
- Landing-zone direction and guardrails
- Modernisation roadmap (rehost/refactor/replatform rationale)
- Platform engineering standards (Kubernetes, IaC, CI/CD)
- Resilience and DR patterns; observability requirements
Data platform strategy
Trusted data foundations and platform direction to enable reporting, analytics, and AI.
Deliverables
- Data platform blueprint (batch + streaming patterns)
- Data governance approach (quality, lineage, access controls)
- Real-time streaming strategy (Kafka patterns)
- Reference designs for ingestion, processing, and serving
- Delivery roadmap and dependency map
AI & GenAI enablement
Controlled, enterprise-ready AI patterns delivered through rapid PoCs and integration designs.
Deliverables
- Use-case framing and success criteria (value + constraints)
- GenAI architecture (RAG/orchestration/integration patterns)
- Security, privacy, auditability and control approach
- PoC/pilot plan and reference implementation outline
- Operational model considerations (monitoring, access, change control)
Payments & regulated platforms
Architecture leadership across payments schemes and regulated change programmes.
Deliverables
- End-to-end payments architecture and integration patterns
- ISO 20022 alignment approach and transition planning
- Straight-through processing, reconciliation, and exception handling design
- Operational readiness: support model and monitoring requirements
- Security and resilience guardrails aligned to regulatory expectations
Technology assurance & architecture audit
Independent review of architecture decisions, delivery risk, and operational readiness.
Deliverables
- Architecture review pack (strengths, issues, recommendations)
- NFR and resilience assessment
- Delivery risk, dependency, and sequencing assessment
- Governance and control evaluation (evidence, audit readiness)
- Action plan with prioritisation
