What makes SA role critical for organisational transformation?


Solution Architects are responsible for establishing business objectives and creating a roadmap for implementing Information Technology solutions. This roadmap serves as a bridge between the project’s context and concept, regardless of its size or complexity.

In our role as solution architects, we specialise in laying the foundation for software development projects by customising IT solutions to meet the specific needs of businesses. This involves many sub-processes that incorporate perspectives from different areas of IT.

When redesigning your IT landscape, solution architecture is a crucial process. A solution refers to an answer to a business challenge or problem. In the corporate world, it involves assessing a client’s needs or problems and resolving them by implementing systems that either replace or enhance the existing ones

The role of a solution architect is distinct from that of enterprise architects and technical architects

Who is a solution architect ?
The role of a solution architect involves analyzing all the business requirements of an organization and devising a technical plan to address any issues or challenges.

Solutions architecture requires technical and interpersonal skills to design, describe, and manage solutions. They evaluate the existing environment and examine how different business, information, and technology elements can be applied to solve a specific problem

In addition, they will suggest comprehensive building modules that offer optimal solutions and act as a connection point between enterprise architects and technical architects

Once the solution architects have designed the appropriate solution, it becomes their responsibility to oversee the different activities required for a successful implementation.
