Managing Complexity, Reducing Risk and Delivering Value

“In the 1980s, the cost of a failed IT project was typically tens of millions of dollars. By the 1990s, that cost had risen to hundreds of millions of dollars. Today, failed projects can cost in the tens of billions of dollars. Clearly, the current methodologies for controlling complexity are not working.”

Roger Sessions, CTO ObjectWatch 

Managing complexity is the key factor in reducing risk and delivering value from your IT projects. If you don’t control complexity, it will quickly bury you.

Fronde, in an exclusive New Zealand partnership with ObjectWatch, offers a highly effective process for controlling enterprise architectural complexity. The Simple Iterative Partitions (SIP) process dramatically slashes Enterprise Architecture complexity, resulting in much higher returns on IT investments.

According to Roger Sessions, CTO of ObjectWatch and a director of the International Association of Software Architects, the cost of IT complexity is rising exponentially. “In the 1980s, the cost of a failed IT project was typically tens of millions of dollars. By the 1990s, that cost had risen to hundreds of millions of dollars. Today, failed projects can cost in the tens of billions of dollars. Clearly, the current methodologies for controlling complexity are not working.”

Fronde will help you avoid the quagmire of complexity and deliver quick, real, and lasting value from your Enterprise Architecture. The answer is SIP. SIP is grounded in the mathematics of complexity and is the only Enterprise Architecture methodology designed exclusively to control the complexity that so often drowns Enterprise Architectures.

The result? A prioritized list of easily managed, high value/low risk projects that will drive exceptional returns on your IT investment.
