A second opinion on your platform, in three to eight weeks.
You have to make a decision about technology you cannot assess yourself. An acquisition with a platform inside it, an investment in a replatforming, a vendor that does not deliver, or a team that has stalled. Within a few weeks you want to know how big the risk is, what your options are and what they cost. That is what this review is for.
Who it is for
Boards, shareholders, investors and supervisory directors. You do not need a technical background; I translate.
What I look at
- Architecture: does the platform fit where the business is going, and where will it break
- Code and pipeline: quality, test coverage, how fast and how safely you can ship
- Licences and IP: what is really yours and what is not
- Vendors and contracts: dependencies, exit costs, who is holding whom
- Security and continuity: what happens when it fails, and how fast you are back
- People: who everything depends on, and what if that person leaves tomorrow
What you get
- A risk picture a board can follow without a technical background
- Options with costs and a recommendation
- Advice on who should own what, which architecture roles you need and how to steer delivery
- A presentation to the board, by me

Track record
In 2026 I did a similar review for an international creative studio ahead of a strategic decision. At for instance Valtech, Capgemini and VCare Connect I set up and led Architecture Boards that still run today. More on the portfolio page.
