Technical Feasibility • Architectural De-risking

High-Impact Technical Discovery & Systems Scoping Sprints.

Before committing capital to complex engineering builds, enterprise leaders de-risk their roadmap through structured architectural discovery. Our London principal systems architects analyze existing codebases, model data topologies, evaluate cloud sizing, and deliver a production-ready milestone blueprint within two weeks.

DISCOVERY WORKSHOP PHASES

A Systematic 4-Phase Engineering Scoping Sprint.

We bridge strategic business intent with concrete technical reality, uncovering edge cases and performance bottlenecks before a single line of production code is written.

Phase 01

Technical & Codebase Audit

Static Analysis, Dependency Trees, Cloud Telemetry, DB Query Profiling

In-depth profiling of legacy code repositories, API contracts, third-party integrations, and technical debt to pinpoint security vulnerabilities, race conditions, and performance choke points.

  • Deep architectural review of database schemas, indexes, and cache layers.
  • Dependency audit identifying unmaintained packages, security CVEs, and licensing risks.
  • Automated test coverage analysis and continuous deployment pipeline evaluation.
Phase 02

Architecture Blueprinting

C4 Architecture Models, Event Storming, Sequence Diagrams, ERDs

Formulating production-grade architectural blueprints encompassing modular microservices, asynchronous message queues, data boundaries, and API schemas.

  • Detailed C4 model diagrams defining context, containers, and component interactions.
  • Real-time data pipeline architecture sizing event throughput and backpressure buffering.
  • API schema contract definition (GraphQL / REST / gRPC) with versioning protocols.
Phase 03

Infrastructure & Cloud Sizing

AWS Well-Architected Framework, Azure, GCP, Terraform Sizing, FinOps

Forecasting operational workloads, multi-region failover topologies, compute/memory sizing, and cloud infrastructure expenditure across 12-month growth scenarios.

  • Granular AWS/Azure/GCP cloud resource budgeting and FinOps cost modeling.
  • High-availability multi-zone deployment strategy with sub-minute disaster recovery SLAs.
  • Terraform Infrastructure as Code (IaC) modular scaffolding and security baseline.
Phase 04

Risk Matrix & Milestone Roadmap

Agile SOW Breakdown, Sprint Velocity Models, Jira/Linear Milestones

Converting architectural blueprints into sprint-by-sprint delivery roadmaps with explicit acceptance criteria, resource allocations, and fixed-fee execution models.

  • Comprehensive risk matrix mapping dependencies, mitigations, and critical path items.
  • Bi-weekly sprint milestone breakdown with granular user stories and acceptance criteria.
  • Transparent fixed-fee commercial proposal and flexible team composition options.
