Vasa Digital Architects | Enterprise Architecture as a Service

Have you been down this road?

Organizations want to work smarter, manage risks, grow, and innovate. Achieving this requires changing and sometimes even rethinking how they use technology and operate their businesses.

However, organizations often face unique and tough challenges due to their history, culture, and the way things are currently set up. These challenges need specific solutions – different ways of solving problems that dive deep into the causes to create precise fixes.

Vasa Digital Architects offers a distinctive approach, one that uses Enterprise Architecture to tackle these tough problems thoroughly. We pay attention to the details that generic approaches miss and look at the big picture when we create solutions.

How we architect growth.

01_Foundation.

Build an Architecture Foundation

The Architecture Foundation service aims to bring structured architectural planning to technology environments that have naturally evolved over time. Our approach includes establishing a foundation by, equipping teams with the necessary architecture tools and training, and compiling a comprehensive inventory of the existing tech ecosystem. We develop a Business Capability Model to illustrate how the business works and what tech they currently depend on. Additionally, we craft a forward-thinking Blueprint that outlines how a well-designed technology architecture can boost business efficiency and achieve objectives.

02_Adapt.

Adapt the Architecture to Reduce Risk and be more Efficient

Static digital architectures are a thing of the past. Our Architecture Adaptation service is about keeping our clients’ digital environments fresh and aligned with changing business needs and tech advancements. We cut out what they don't need, help them move to the cloud, up their security game, and make sure everything runs more smoothly and cost-effectively. It's about equipping our clients to quickly adjust and take on new opportunities without missing a beat.

03_Evolve.

Evolve the Architecture for the Future

Our Architecture Evolution service is about getting ahead of changes instead of reacting to them. We dive into best practices and tech trends to make sure our clients are ready for what's next. From using their data smarter to devising new digital ways of working, we help them stay ahead. We ensure their digital world supports their growth now, and in the future. This way, they are not just keeping up; they are leading through transformation.

Introducing
Enterprise Architecture as a Service (EAaaS).

Many organizations struggle to unlock the full potential of Enterprise Architecture (EA) because their teams are stretched thin and lack the necessary tools and resources. Scaling an in-house EA team can be expensive, time-consuming, and difficult. For many organizations, EAaaS is a better option. EAaaS provides access to expert architects, helps you stay agile, and offers a cost-effective solution to manage your complex IT systems.

EA as a Service (EAaaS) fills this gap by offering experts to support your team, the right tools, and ongoing support to help teams build a strong EA foundation, so that you can fully realize EA’s potential and drive lasting impact.

Expertise on demand: EAaaS provides access to skilled architects with deep knowledge of both IT and business strategies.
Cost-effective: Pay only for the EA services you need, avoiding the expenses of full-time staff, training, and tools.
Faster outcomes: EAaaS teams can jump in and deliver results quickly, reducing ramp-up time.
