Services

Productized offers, one ladder.

Start with a review, move to a core engagement, sustain with a retainer. Every offer is concrete - scope, outcome, and one next step - and every deliverable is signed by the principal.

Entry reviews

Start with a review.

Paid, fixed-scope, low friction. Each review maps the current state, finds the gaps against a concrete target state, and ends in a decision-ready blueprint - something you can act on with Northkeep or hand to your own team. Either way, you keep the judgment.

Modernization and AI Readiness Assessment

European businesses running lifted-and-shifted or legacy estates that need reliability, lower run cost, and a foundation production AI can actually run on.

Scope
Current-state review of the estate (architecture, resilience, cost, data), gap analysis against a cloud-native and AI-ready target state, and a prioritized modernization roadmap with costs.
Outcome
A decision-ready, costed modernization blueprint you can act on or hand to your team.

Entry review

Serverless Excellence Review

Teams on AWS serverless who want a senior architecture review against the Well-Architected Framework.

Scope
Workload review across the Well-Architected pillars, risk-ranked findings, and a remediation plan.
Outcome
A risk-ranked remediation plan, prioritized by impact, that your team can execute.

Entry review

Sovereign Cloud Readiness Assessment

EU organizations, or US and Gulf organizations entering the EU, putting production AI or regulated workloads on AWS and needing a residency- and regulation-ready foundation.

Scope
Current-state review, data-residency and sovereignty gap analysis against the relevant frameworks, target-state blueprint, and a prioritized roadmap. Delivered entirely from inside the EU, by EU residents, under EU jurisdiction.
Outcome
A decision-ready, costed blueprint you can act on or hand to your team.

Core architecture

Move to a core engagement.

The main work: modernization, production AI, and regulated resilience. Target-state architecture with defensible trade-offs, executed with your team and signed by the principal - systems designed from the start to be operated by your own engineers.

Core architecture

Cloud-Native Modernization

Organizations whose cloud estate was migrated, not modernized - or whose systems still hold the business back.

Scope
Target-state cloud-native architecture (serverless and event-driven where it earns its place), resilience and continuity by design, the data foundation production AI needs, and a phased modernization plan executed with the client's team under principal review.
Outcome
A cloud-native AWS foundation with lower run cost and higher resilience, operated by your own team, ready to carry production AI.

Core architecture

Production AI Architecture

Organizations with a GenAI pilot that has to reach governed production on AWS.

Scope
Target-state architecture on Amazon Bedrock (agents, guardrails, agent identity and access, retrieval-augmented generation, evaluation and observability), build-versus-buy decisions, and a governance model built to hold up under scrutiny.
Outcome
A production architecture and delivery plan that closes the pilot-to-production gap, designed to be operated by your own team.

Core architecture

EU Cloud Resilience and Exit Strategy

Regulated EU organizations facing DORA, the EU Data Act, or NIS2 obligations on their cloud estate.

Scope
ICT concentration-risk analysis, cloud exit and portability architecture, resilience design, and the target-state changes needed to satisfy the relevant obligations. Architecture and design; formal audit and attestation are scoped out and referred.
Outcome
A resilience and exit-strategy architecture, evidenced and documented, that stands up to a regulator's questions.

Retainer

Sustain with senior authority on tap.

Optional, after the core work lands. Ongoing design authority as the estate, the workloads, and the regulations evolve - one accountable principal, without a full-time hire.

Retainer

Fractional Principal Architect

Teams that need ongoing senior architecture authority without a full-time hire.

Scope
A set number of days per month as embedded principal architect - design authority, reviews, decisions, and direction, working alongside your engineers.
Outcome
Senior architecture judgment on tap, one accountable principal.
