ENGAGEMENTS

reduce the

time to maturity

Inline with the Iasa Mission Statement to “make architecture the most educated, capable, and recognized profession in the world”

We created a range of services that aim to accelerate the journey that many organisations and architecture groups are on, towards digital advantage, business alignment, value delivery and outcome focus.


The Engagement Model covers Skills, Progress, Coverage and Value with:

■artifacts and templates

■job descriptions and roles

■goals, objectives and value measures

■support for innovation.

Engagement Model


Advisory 1 – Practice Assessments

Intentionally of short duration, this starting point ensures alignment with business objectives:

• Tools-based (encapsulating the transition from one maturity level to the next) so that outcome is repeatable and provides a baseline and benchmark over time

• Survey and certification of architects can be included

• Includes a presentation of the final report that documents findings using “rising-star” chart; Iasa approach is to always focus on the future state and outcomes prioritized by ability to execute and time to value

A short assessment and planning engagement delivering a strategic report on

the health and maturity of the architect practice. It outlines opportunities for

improvement within the practice and architecture function, it also identifies a

forward plan to improve specific capabilities that are aligned to the customers

business.

These are prioritized according to “ability to execute” and “time to value”


Advisory 2 – Centre of ExcellenceA longer-term engagement to deliver on the recommendations of an Assessment through

execution iterations (interventions) to accelerate maturity, based on establishing a focus

(CoE) and culture change. Enables an architecture capability and achieves a Rationalized

level of maturity in short order. Built around a ten element model that allows both

technology and business perspectives to work together.

Establish a modern-style architecture function that is “business aligned, outcome focused and value driven”

▪ Includes the assessment and (re)training of individuals across skills, job descriptions and leads to certification

▪ Establishes standard organizational structures and governance processes at the Enterprise level

▪ Includes value measurement and tracking as part of change management (separated from project management)

▪ Ensures business stakeholder alignment and involvement

Establish best practice across multiple related competencies as Iasa Consultants work alongside the customer team and drive the planning and execution of change.
