We embed within your team.
A methodology for solving a complex technical problem inside your organization, built so your team can run the result without us.
How an engagement runs
Four phases, each with a defined handover. The timings are a typical shape; the Statement of Work sets the real schedule.
01 Weeks 1 to 2
Problem discovery
A technical assessment of the challenge. We map the system architecture, identify constraints, align stakeholders and define how success will be judged.
- Technical architecture review
- Stakeholder alignment sessions
- Success criteria definition
- Risk assessment and mitigation planning
02 Weeks 3 to 6
Team embedding
Our engineers join your team for daily collaboration: pair programming, knowledge sharing and hands-on problem solving from within your organization.
- Daily pair programming sessions
- Architecture decision documentation
- Code review and practice transfer
- Real-time problem solving
03 Weeks 7 to 10
Solution deployment
The solution goes to production, built together with your team so your engineers understand each component and can maintain it.
- Production deployment
- Performance validation and testing
- Documentation and runbooks
- Monitoring and alerting setup
04 Weeks 11 to 12
Capability transfer
A structured handoff so your team owns the solution: training, documentation and a check that your team can operate it on its own.
- Training sessions
- Knowledge validation
- Independent operation check
- Support transition
Embedded or delivered from outside
How an embedded engagement differs from work done at arm's length and handed over at the end.
Solution ownership
Delivered from outside
The solution is built elsewhere and delivered.
Embedded with your team
The solution is built alongside your team.
Knowledge
Delivered from outside
Expertise can leave when the consultants do.
Embedded with your team
Knowledge is transferred step by step during the work.
Dependency
Delivered from outside
Your team may need the outside party to keep it running.
Embedded with your team
The goal is that your team can run it on its own.
Context
Delivered from outside
The work happens apart from your organization.
Embedded with your team
Our engineers work inside your team for the length of the engagement.
Principles
Capability over dependency
Each engagement aims to leave your team better able to run its own systems.
Depth over breadth
We take on fewer problems and solve them thoroughly.
Transparency over politics
An honest technical assessment, including when the answer is uncomfortable.
Outcomes over activities
Work is judged by what is deployed and handed over, not by hours worked or reports delivered.
