Engagements structured for outcomes, not billable hours.
A precise model — discovery through sustained operations — with commercial shapes that fit how regulated and high-growth enterprises actually buy.
Process
How a Nimtrix engagement runs
Five phases from first conversation to sustained delivery. Every phase has named deliverables and a clear exit criteria.
01 · 1–2 weeks
Discover
We interview stakeholders, inventory the estate and quantify where value and risk actually sit — before proposing a single change.
- · Stakeholder map and objective alignment
- · Current-state architecture assessment
- · Risk and constraint register
02 · 2–4 weeks
Architect
A target-state design with costed options, explicit trade-offs and a sequencing plan your board can approve with confidence.
- · Target-state architecture and ADRs
- · Costed options analysis
- · Phased delivery roadmap
03 · 8–24 weeks
Deliver
Embedded squads ship in two-week increments against agreed acceptance criteria, with your engineers pairing throughout.
- · Production increments every sprint
- · Automated test and deployment pipelines
- · Living technical documentation
04 · 2–3 weeks
Assure
Independent security review, performance validation and compliance evidence collection before anything is declared done.
- · Penetration test and remediation log
- · Load and resilience test results
- · Audit-ready compliance evidence pack
05 · Ongoing
Sustain
Knowledge transfer through the Academy plus optional managed operations, so capability stays after we leave.
- · Team enablement and certification pathway
- · Runbooks and on-call handover
- · Quarterly service review cadence
Commercial
Choose the shape that fits
Three engagement models. Same engineering standard. Different commercial and operating footprints.
Advisory Retainer
Best for: Leadership teams needing senior architectural judgement on demand
Fractional access to principal architects and security leads for design review, vendor evaluation and board-level technical assurance.
- · Named principal architect
- · Fortnightly design review sessions
- · Architecture decision records
- · Vendor and build-versus-buy assessments
Embedded Squad
Best for: Organisations delivering a funded transformation programme
A cross-functional Nimtrix squad — architect, engineers, security and delivery lead — operating inside your governance and pairing with your team.
- · Dedicated cross-functional squad
- · Two-week production increments
- · Paired enablement with your engineers
- · Full CI/CD and observability setup
- · Sprint-level reporting to your PMO
Managed Operations
Best for: Enterprises that want outcomes owned end-to-end
Nimtrix assumes operational accountability for defined platforms and services against contractual SLAs and published error budgets.
- · 24/7 follow-the-sun coverage
- · Contractual SLA and error budgets
- · Continuous security monitoring
- · Quarterly business reviews
