Enterprise Architecture
Architecture standards and roadmaps
Architecture 360
Every system decision, tied to the strategy.
Architecture 360 is GTech’s enterprise architecture office. It keeps a living view of the organization’s capabilities, applications and data, sets the standards new systems must meet, and maintains the roadmaps that take the estate from where it is to where the strategy needs it.
Highlights
- A living application portfolio, mapped to business capabilities
- Standards and design reviews that every new system meets
- Roadmaps that rationalize the estate and fund what matters
The estate grows one project at a time.
Each project buys or builds what it needs. Over the years the organization collects overlapping systems, point-to-point integrations and data held in many places, and nobody can say with confidence what a change in one system will break in another.
Strategy then arrives at an estate that cannot follow it: new services take too long, costs keep rising, and every transformation starts with a discovery exercise. Architecture needs an office that owns the whole picture and the path forward.
Portfolio, standards and roadmaps in one office.
Architecture 360 turns architecture from documents into decisions.
-
Capability and application portfolio
Every business capability and the applications, data and integrations that support it, kept current and owned.
-
Standards
Principles, reference architectures and approved technologies that new systems must follow.
-
Design authority
Reviews of new solutions and changes before they are funded, so exceptions are decided, not discovered.
-
Rationalization
Overlapping and aging systems identified, with the case to retire, replace or consolidate each.
-
Roadmaps
Target architectures and transition roadmaps linked to the strategy and the investment plan.
Stood up with your team, then run by it.
-
Baseline
Capture the current capabilities, applications and integrations, and the pain points they cause.
-
Set the rules
Agree the principles, standards and design authority that will govern change.
-
Plan the path
Build the target architecture and roadmaps for the priorities of the strategy.
-
Transfer
GTech runs the office alongside your architects until they run it on their own.
An estate that follows the strategy.
-
Faster change
A known estate means new services are designed on what exists, not on a fresh discovery.
-
Lower run cost
Rationalization retires duplicate systems and the licences and support behind them.
-
Fewer surprises
Design reviews catch conflicts before they are built, funded and hard to undo.
-
Connected to the command center
Application portfolio, standards compliance and rationalization flow into ECC 360 and HECC 360, and out-of-standard systems open actions for their owners.
Built for estates of every shape.
The office fits the scale and the governance of the organization it serves.
-
Government and public sector
For ministries and authorities aligning their architecture with national digital government frameworks and shared platforms.
-
Enterprise and groups
For groups and companies with many business units, where shared platforms and rationalization carry the most value.
Give the strategy an architecture that can follow it.
