Start With the Decision You Need Approved
We name the goal, owner, constraints, success criteria, and approval group first, so the architecture maps to what your team can fund and sign off on, not a generic best-practice checklist.
About
RedDogSME gives your team a senior architect’s read on the Azure or AI work that is under cost, ownership, security, or production pressure. Then it gives the decisions your owners can approve before that pressure stalls the work.
Architecture Practice
We start with the business objective and the Azure or AI decision blocking the work, then turn the real setup, vendor input, and internal constraints into architecture your team can approve and operate. Assessment and blueprint come before any build, so scope is approved before budget is committed. The five services are described on the services page, with published price bands on pricing.
Azure Architecture as a Service
Azure Architecture Assessment
Current state, risks, owners, recommendations, and a 90-Day Action Plan
Blueprint, Build, Architecture Office, Governance, or internal execution
Working Method
Three commitments keep the work tied to decisions your owners can approve and systems your team can operate, rather than advice that never reaches production. To see the shape of the work, read a composite landing-zone drift example.
We name the goal, owner, constraints, success criteria, and approval group first, so the architecture maps to what your team can fund and sign off on, not a generic best-practice checklist.
We read AI, cloud, data, security, cost, and governance together against your real Azure setup and identity model, so recommendations hold up against what is actually running.
Every engagement is bounded with assumptions and exclusions, moves through QA gates from business case to closeout, and ends in a written handoff and the Architecture Decision Records your team keeps.
The first architecture call is free for qualified teams and confirms whether the Assessment should come first. Bring your Azure or AI context, current blockers, timeline, and the owner who signs off.
