What We Do

What Benefits do we Deliver?

We apply Enterpise Architecture disciplines to deliver business value through

  • Access to information
  • Growth capability
  • Positioning for agility
  • Reduced TCO

Achieved through business integration and reference standards.

 

Enterprise Architecture

Our approach to Enterprise Architecture draws on international standards and methods, but uses the practical  experience of our team to adapt these to the scale and specific needs of the local markets in which we operate.

 We have a range of service offerings and our modes of engagement can include acting as the "in-house" Enterprise Architecture team for organisations that cannot justify their own permanent team, or alternatively "kick-starting" Enterprise Architecture within an organisation through an EA project which is then handed over to an in-house team.

Resultex’ primary intellectual property is encapsulated in the Resultex Architecture Method (RAM)™. This method:

  • Was developed from our experience as practitioners
  • Delivers a pragmatic, yet comprehensive approach to Enterprise Architecture
  • Uses elements of TOGAF and Zachman

It covers all aspects of developing an Enterprise Architecture from initial discovery through “current state analysis”, alignment to corporate strategy, “future state envisioning”, development of reference architectures for applications and infrastructure, developing the “future state” architecture and high level component designs and into detailed planning and implementation. The methodology also includes governance strategies, processes and example artefacts for architectural and design governance.

Solutions Architecture

In addition to their Enterprise Architecture skills, each team member within the Resultex Architecture Practice is expected to maintain specialist skills in Infrastructure or Applications disciplines at a level of ability sufficient to produce Solution Designs within their particular discipline.

In this regard the Practice can offer specialist skills in:

  • software solutions architecture (Java, .Net and Open Source)
  • information systems strategic planning and policy development
  • WebSphere MQ
  • information architecture and data warehouse design
  • enterprise applications integration (EAI)
  • LAN and WAN design
  • network security
  • storage subsystem design
  • operations management system
  • server virtualisation
  • software development process design (SDLC)
  • software and hardware deployment
  • telecommunications (including VOIP)
  • biometrics and identity management
  • architecture and design governance

The individuals who fill these roles have national and in some case international credentials within their chosen disciplines. We are architects who practice our architecture discipline at the highest levels in NZ and we see deployed what we define.
