Well-Architected Review

A Well-Architected review enables you to build secure, high-performing, resilient, and efficient infrastructure for a variety of applications and workloads.

If your organisation faces regulatory requirements, such as PCI or IRAP, we help you define and establish the necessary guardrails and platform requirements. Through a combination of defensive visibility and actionable controls, we empower you to securely manage and operate applications while meeting compliance standards. Operate with confidence in a secure environment.

Govern

Cloud Centre of Excellence (CCoE)

Bring your teams together to create cloud consumption patterns and foster a community of practice for defining and maintaining best cloud practices. A CCoE team will develop a scalable approach for implementing cloud technology within your organisation. This team becomes the pivotal point for transforming how technology serves your business, ensuring that cloud initiatives align with organisational goals.

Cloud Business Office (CBO)

The CBO helps organisations manage the intake, prioritisation, and operations of applications deployed to the cloud. The CBO is responsible for ensuring that cloud services meet the needs of internal customers and business services. By establishing a CBO, you gain control over cloud operations, enabling smoother cloud adoption and alignment with your organisational priorities.
