Frequently asked questions
How long does an architecture review take?
Typical engagements run 2–4 weeks depending on system complexity and the number of stakeholders involved.
What do we get at the end?
A written report with findings, an executive summary, a prioritised remediation roadmap and a board-ready presentation.
Is the review vendor-neutral?
Yes. HowTech is independent – we are not tied to specific cloud vendors, frameworks or implementation partners.
Can you also deliver the remediation work?
Yes, optionally. Some clients hand the roadmap to their internal team; others ask us to deliver part or all of it.
