Enterprise Architecture

Applications, technology, vendors and capabilities in one connected repository, so decisions are made against what you actually run.

The problem

Technology decisions are routinely made against an incomplete picture. The application inventory is a spreadsheet somebody maintained until they changed roles. Nobody is confident it is complete, and nobody is certain which business capability each system actually supports.

So duplication accumulates quietly. Three systems do overlapping work because each was bought by a different function to solve an urgent problem, and no one was in a position to see the overlap at the time.

The bill arrives during transformation. Every migration, integration and AI initiative begins with months of discovery that would have been unnecessary had the architecture been maintained rather than periodically rediscovered.

What we deliver

  • A connected repository of applications, technology, vendors and interfaces
  • Business capability model mapped to the systems that deliver each capability
  • Portfolio scored for risk, functional fit, cost and obsolescence
  • Integration and data flow mapped between systems rather than assumed
  • Target architecture and a sequenced path from the current estate to it
  • Architecture governance that keeps the repository current after the engagement

Signs you need this

  • No single inventory of applications that anyone would defend as complete
  • Duplicate systems doing overlapping work across functions
  • Every project starts with a discovery phase covering ground already covered
  • Nobody can say what breaks if a given system is retired

Mosaic holds the architecture connected to the processes each system runs, the policies that govern it and the risks it carries — so impact analysis is a query rather than a project.
