Architecture

Welcome to our unique offering - Architecture as a Service

How about if you could call on the services, expertise and experience of a Dynamics 365 and Power Platform Solution Architect at any time without having to engage in a costly project with a Partner or having to employ one full time?

Our small team of dedicated and highly focused architects are available for specific, focused engagements to undertake a varietys of tasks to support your organisations Dynamcis 365 and Power Platform implementations. We specialised in short span angagements - need an architect for a weeks of project assurance, one day a month longer term to mentor and help develop your technical team, to help your project team build a highly focused tender for a partner to deliver - all this, and more, is available at the fraction of the cost of employing your own internal architect.

We help businesses, Public Sector Organisations, Charities & NGOs Make Smarter Strategic Decisions.

Expertise when you need it but without the ongoing costs

In our experience, an end user organisation usually does not always have sufficient expertise to help them make the most of about Dynamics 365 and Power Platform projects. The costs of employing time-served and highly experienced Dynamics and Power Platform Solution Architects can be significant, and employing one full-time for most orgainsations is not realistic, particularly given the project based nature of these implementations, but also in our experience organisations could hugely benefit from input from these highly skilled individuals, if not on a full time basis.

Typically the organisation relies on an implementation partner to deliver a project. We love Microsoft partners, we've worked with several, we are one, but we are not a typical partner. Instead of bringing to the table account managers, project managers, consultants testers, developers we simply bring expertise, at an architect level.

Partners will usually do a great job, but partners change, sometimes have their own way of working which may not align with current best practice and the transition of your support arrangements between partners can be problematic. The key issue is the reality that the organisation, particularly when it comes to Dynamcis 365 and the Power Platform needs to own their own implementation. In order to do that you need expertise, not all the time, but when you need it, to help steer the ship.

We specialise in the types of engagements others shy away from. engagements that allow you to get independent expertise on an ongoing basis without costly ongoing partner engagements or having to directly employ expensive resources. Once assigned an architect you control the engagement, use us as much or as little as required - weekly, monthly, 6 monthly or just as a one off task.
