Architecture Health Check
Evaluate whether your technology architecture provides sufficient scalability, integration, resilience and governance.
Question 1 of 15
Are architecture decisions explicitly linked to business capabilities and strategic priorities?
Diagnostic Dimensions Evaluated
This diagnostic evaluates 15 critical factors across five distinct capability pillars, providing a holistic assessment of your organisation’s operating model:
Business Alignment
Mapping between architecture blueprints and strategic business capabilities.
Application Architecture
Modularity, bounded contexts, and separation of concerns across platforms.
Integration & Data
API design standards, authoritative data ownership, and decoupled communication.
Resilience & Security
Non-functional requirements, high availability, threat modeling, and encryption.
Architecture Governance
Design authorities, architectural decision records (ADRs), and delivery enablement.
Capability Maturity Tiers
Scores are mapped against a five-tier benchmark to provide clear contextual meaning and executive alignment:
Nascent capability characterized by ad-hoc decisions and immediate operational friction.
Emerging practices with isolated successes but inconsistent cross-functional execution.
Solid operational baselines with repeatable processes and emerging executive governance.
High capability maturity with disciplined architecture, strategic alignment, and proactive risk control.
Market-leading maturity with continuous improvement, automated guardrails, and predictive adaptability.
Translate Diagnostic Insights Into Delivery
Completing a self-assessment is the first step toward reducing delivery uncertainty, closing technical debt, and aligning architectural investment with commercial objectives.
