What is
Architecture
?
Architecture, as applied to information, represents an intentional design of varying aspects of a system. A system that is poorly designed will not perform well and not meet your needs. A well-designed architect is used to guide the acquisition and integration of systems to enable the strategic goals of the organization. QTG Architects are familiar with architectural frameworks and lifecycles which can be applied across multiple industries and domains. We assist you in evaluating your current state IT Management architecture, defining a target state that meets your goals.
