Changing Things You Don’t Understand Is a Risky Proposition
Allow me to help you acquire the deep understanding needed to reduce your modernization project’s cost, risk, and duration
Your enterprise is a complex system of systems and organizations. Nobody understands this complex system. It was never designed – it is an accident of history. It is not documented – existing documentation is highly fragmented and incomplete.
For modernization and transformation projects, taking the time to understand your complex system will cut development cost by 50% and cut overall project duration by 25%.
My Total ArchitectureSM approach provides the understanding you need to reduce project cost, risk, and duration.
Total Architecture
Total Architecture provides a holistic model of how your enterprise works, encompassing people, business processes, systems, and information. It captures their requirements, behavior, and structure. While comprehensive in scope, it is modest in detail: big-picture understanding is the goal.
Consulting
From strategic planning through as-is analysis, to-be exploration, training, and mentoring I can help your enterprise reduce the cost, risk, and duration of your modernization effort. For greatest benefit, engage me during the conceptualization of your project.
