Enterprise Architecture
We can support you in the following areas:

High IT costs
The cost of the current IT architecture is very high and lacks transparency.

Lack of strategy
There is a lack of a clear vision & strategy for the company's IT.

Lack of resources
When it comes to implementing and managing IT, there is a lack of resources to handle all the current tasks and forward-looking projects.

Technical complexity
Many different, sometimes slow and unreliable solutions are in use, which do not work together seamlessly and make for a complex IT architecture.

Business & IT silos
There is a lack of interdisciplinary teams with clear responsibilities between business and IT that align with the strategic goals of the organization.

IT and data security
Data security as well as the general security of the implemented IT systems are not verified or secured.

Risk management
No effective risk management to identify risks early enough and develop solutions.

Governance
Lack of IT governance framework and execution.
