At Critical Project Solutions, Inc. we provide expert Technical Architects. Our Architects have created some of the most complicated technical solutions in the world. They have architected solutions from virtualization solutions, mainframe, mid-tier, java-based, portals, detailed interfaces, server and network solutions and detailed and efficient data models. We are very experienced in a wide range of technologies and industries, and across all phases of both software and platform lifecycles.
Our Architects have real-world experience delivering an entire program of work. They have delivered from end-to-end, and have both broad and deep knowledge across a wide range of solutions. Our Architects also possess the ability to develop the functional and technical specifications, and bridge the gap of communication to the business and all stakeholders.
Our Technical Architects create strategies and framework within which your project or program operates. We will provide a technical plan for successful delivery and operation of systems and platforms.
For most projects we will help determine the technical scope parameters, the vendors and methodologies, the choice of technologies (languages, frameworks, hardware/software), best security, and risk. For an entire organization, the focus might be on creating an Enterprise Architecture, where longer-term investments, business and operational models are aligned with preferred suppliers, detailed implementation plans and the creation of strategic and tactical business capabilities.
We will work to develop a technical blueprint that can span several years and define every layer in the OSI model.
In all cases we ensure that the appropriate architecture is targeted, and that it aligns with your business plan.
