Maturity area

Architecture

Evaluate whether architecture decisions are transparent, modular and connected to delivery — from governance and interfaces to data, safety and the delivery platform.

What this domain assesses

Do architecture choices map to current and 5 to 10-year revenue streams?
Is there a target architecture and a 12-month runway for one or two strategic bets?
Is a speed-versus-stability policy defined and referenced in decisions?
Do Architecture Decision Records (ADRs) exist and are they referenced by recent pull requests?
Is ownership and mastership of the machine object unambiguous across the lifecycle?
