Architecture Assessment Service
How Our Assessment Process Works
We offer a streamlined approach to architecture assessment that delivers objective data through our structured analysis framework:
- Project Submission - You provide your project description through our secure text-based submission process (see Test Cases for examples)
- Framework Analysis - Our system applies our structured assessment framework across 25+ domains and 500+ architectural practices
- Comprehensive Report Generation - The assessment framework generates detailed analysis results within the specified timeline (1-2 business days for Self-Service, 3-5 business days for Expert-Guided)
- Data Delivery - You receive access to download your assessment outputs in standard formats for your review and analysis
What We Need From You
To conduct the assessment, we only need:
- Project Description Text - A comprehensive text description of your project using our structured template (text only for MVP stage)
- For Expert-Guided Assessment Only: - Discussion of special project factors that might affect the analysis not easily represented in text format
What You'll Receive
Executive Summary (PDF)
Concise overview of key architectural findings.
Risk Visualization Bar Chart
Visual representation of architecture risk levels across domains for quick comprehension.
Machine-Readable Datasets (JSON)
Structured data for domains and practices that your team can integrate into your reporting and decision support systems.
Current Service Model
Our assessment service currently operates at MVP stage as a manual process with expert verification. This allows us to:
- Provide contextually relevant analysis tailored to your specific project
- Apply nuanced interpretation through our structured framework
- Focus on generating meaningful data for your decision-making processes
- Adapt our methodology to your available documentation and constraints
Evolutionary Development: While our framework continues to evolve, we maintain transparency about areas where we're enhancing our assessment methodology. Our roadmap includes more streamlined submission processes and interactive reporting tools as we gather feedback from diverse project contexts.
Beyond Standard Assessments
In addition to our standard assessment service, we offer:
- Custom Assessment Framework Development - We can design and implement similar assessment frameworks tailored to your organization's specific domains and practices
- Framework Integration Services - Integrate our assessment methodology with your existing tools and processes
- Architecture Coaching - Get expert guidance on interpreting and applying assessment results in your specific context
- Assessment System Implementation - We can help you build your own internal assessment capability based on our proven approach
Each of these services leverages the same expertise that built this assessment frameworkâcombining technical implementation skills with deep architectural knowledge.
Important Note
Our assessment framework operates as an 'Assessment as a Service' service - providing objective risk analysis data without advisory interpretation. The framework is specifically designed to generate data that supports your own reporting and decision-making processes. While the Executive Summary may include high-level observations, these are informational rather than advisory in nature. Your team maintains complete responsibility for interpreting and acting on the assessment data.
