Architecture design review
Structured review of a system's architecture — components, boundaries, seams, and build order — delivered as a whitepaper with prioritized recommendations.
What we build
An independent expert examination of how a system is — or should be — put together: its components, boundaries, data flows, and build order. Suits both auditing an existing platform and designing a new one before any code is written. You receive a written whitepaper with findings, risks, and prioritized recommendations your team can act on, whether or not we do the follow-on work.
What you get
- An architecture review whitepaper covering the system's components, boundaries and data flows
- A findings register with a severity and an owner per finding
- A sequenced build-order plan naming each phase and its prerequisites
How the work unfolds
- Review the system architecture end to end
- Assess components, boundaries and integration seams
- Run trade studies on the key decisions
- Audit the implementation against the design
- Write the architecture whitepaper with prioritised recommendations
What shapes the price
Before you see a number, our scoping conversation asks:
- Is there a system already built that we should compare the design against, or are we designing from scratch? The implementation audit is dead scope on a greenfield design.
