Connect systems and data through robust API management and integration platforms.
Why it matters
Connect systems and data through robust API management and integration platforms.
This sits inside our application innovation practice, and rarely arrives alone — most engagements combine it with two or three of its neighbours. The assessment decides which, and in what order.
What the practice is measured on
Faster Development
Accelerate app development with low-code platforms
Better User Experience
Create intuitive and responsive applications
Scalable Architecture
Build applications that scale with your business
Integration Ready
Seamlessly connect with existing systems
Microservices, Docker, Kubernetes, Service Mesh, API Gateway
Power Apps, Power Automate, Power BI, Power Virtual Agents, Dataverse
The tooling we actually build api & integration services on.
React, Angular, Node.js, React Native, Flutter
Azure API Management, Microsoft Graph, Logic Apps, REST APIs, GraphQL
You are hereA sequence you can plan around, with a decision point at the end of each phase rather than one big reveal at the end.
Understand business needs and technical requirements
Design scalable and maintainable application architecture
Build and test applications using agile methodologies
Deploy applications and integrate with existing systems
Provide ongoing support and feature enhancements
The constraints differ more than the technology does. Each sector page sets out what changes in that context.
Five commitments that hold on every engagement, not just the ones that go well.
Every engagement opens with an assessment that produces a prioritised backlog. Engineering starts against that, not against an assumption.
Existing systems keep running while we work. Delivery arrives in increments you can put in front of users rather than one release at the end.
Each phase has defined outputs and a defined cost, with a decision point at the end. You can stop between phases without stranding the work.
Architecture decisions are written down with their rationale, in your repositories, so the reasoning survives the people who made it.
Access control, auditability, and data residency are settled in the first architecture review rather than retrofitted before an audit.
What we are asked most often about api & integration services.
Almost never. We work incrementally around what you already run, extracting interfaces and migrating in phases so the existing system keeps serving users while the new one takes over piece by piece.
That is what the assessment establishes. We map your current architecture, data and constraints first, and if the approach will not hold in your environment we say so before anyone commits to a build.
Discovery is fixed-price and ends with a costed roadmap. Build phases are then priced per phase against defined outputs, so you are never approving an open-ended budget.
You do — code, infrastructure definitions, any trained models, and the documentation. All of it lands in your own repositories and cloud tenancy as we go.
Monitoring, alerting and agreed response targets are part of delivery. Where we also run the platform under managed services, we are the ones on the other end of the alert.
We map what you have, what it would take, and in what order — specific to api & integration services in your environment.
