IT Strategy & Architecture

In Consulting

More than ever, organisations need a clear technology strategy based around an architecture that supports new digital solutions and the evolution of legacy platforms. We create pragmatic, actionable IT strategies, target architectures and technology roadmaps that blend industry insight with a deep knowledge of sector-relevant platforms to create real business value. Our Strategy & Architecture capability is broad and spans IT strategy development, Enterprise and Solution architecture. We are helping our clients to develop a target architecture and a roadmap to get there.

What EY can do for you?

EY Ireland Strategy & Architecture co-create IT / Digital strategies by drawing on the business strategy together with our industry insights and macro trends to enable organisations to take control of their digital agenda and set the pace with respect to products, services, differentiation and innovation - both externally and internally. We help you shift the traditional role of IT from “keeping the lights on” to being a true business partner delivering value from the planning stage through to design and delivery. Our team is familiar with modern IT operating models and can help you to develop the skills, knowledge and processes to make your IT organisation sustainable.

We support the architecture governance process by reviewing and monitoring significant technology projects to ensure strategic alignment with the target architecture. We identify issues and risks and escalate as appropriate. We help to establish or enhance your Enterprise Architecture (EA) capabilities where EA is used both as a process and a tool for translating your business vision and strategy into effective change and helping to ensure  alignment between Business and IT.

Our approach is based on a modern and pragmatic approach to EA by keeping architecture out of the "ivory tower" by remaining hands on and close to the action. This enables us to unite an organisation across functional boundaries by using a vocabulary that the business understands. Our agile approach balances speed and depth of design whilst still remaining aligned with organisational goals.
