Architecture

We live in a dynamic time where established structures are being challenged and replaced. This also applies to ICT Architecture and the profession of an Architect. At CIMSOLUTIONS we understand that these developments place new demands on your IT infrastructure and business processes. Our architects are ready to support you in navigating these complex changes and to prepare your organization for the future.

Our approach

At CIMSOLUTIONS we believe in an approach that is both customer-oriented and goal-oriented. Our architects distinguish themselves by being able to serve the entire IT spectrum, from strategic and tactical to operational level. Our architects are all T-Shaped, with broad knowledge of the whole and in-depth expertise in specific areas, which makes them widely deployable. They are trained to operate with tact and organizational sensitivity, and attach great value to collaboration and integrity. Furthermore, we are proud of our independent approach without preference for specific suppliers or technologies, so we can always provide objective advice.

The strength of CIMSOLUTIONS lies in our future-oriented vision combined with practical feasibility. We link your strategic objectives to the necessary IT processes, systems and infrastructure, and create an architecture that gives direction to the changes within your organization. Whether you want to solve a specific problem or are looking for a strategic partner for long-term cooperation, CIMSOLUTIONS offers the expertise and independent advice you need. Together we help your organization to be prepared for the future.

What I always like about an assignment is that you get the opportunity to better understand the company or the organization where you work. What is the mission of that company. Because ultimately you are of course working to realize an IT solution that fits in with that. So the better you understand the organization, the better you can of course also create that IT solution.

When I started at CIMSOLUTIONS in 2000, I actually started from the role of developer. And over time, through various assignments with clients, I actually became more and more interested in ‘why do you build something’. So I also rolled more into the role of functional designer and grew again into the role of business analyst.

At my current client I grew even further into the role of business architect. Trainings in the field of business architecture have helped me a lot in that. I am also one of the first who started using business capabilities, to also map out the business model. I am quite proud that this model is now also used by everyone at this client. Not only for carrying out an impact analysis, for example, but also within initiatives or larger programs.

 

Within CIMSOLUTIONS you have your own training budget. That you can use to obtain certifications, for example, or to follow training courses. I myself have followed training courses in the field of business architecture, for example. But I am also certified in TOGAF and have a SAFe certificate. That, in combination with the various assignments that CIMSOLUTIONS has in its portfolio, ensures that you can also grow.

One of the ways in which I have a lot of contact with colleagues, especially in my own field, is within the Competence Center Business Analysis. We meet regularly, nowadays that is often via Teams. But when I talk about the Competence Center Business Analysis, for example, we share information there about the latest developments, the latest trends, the latest issues that are playing a role in the field of business analysis. So it is also important for me to share knowledge there, but also to brainstorm with colleagues. That is very nice. If I have a problem, or if I think how would you solve this, I can always go there. You don’t necessarily have to wait for the meeting that is coming up. In this way, you also build a network within CIMSOLUTIONS of colleagues in your field with whom you can always brainstorm or share knowledge. So that is, for me, a great advantage of the Competence Centers.

What I always get very enthusiastic about is when I can transfer knowledge to other people who then also pick it up and can use it in their work or in their assignment. So for example a new development in the field of business analysis, for example, new tools, new techniques, to then explain that to people who can then also continue with it. So ultimately that person can continue with it, I can continue with it, we can continue with it together and I think that is growth again.

Are you looking for a company where it is important that colleagues share knowledge with each other, where you have the opportunity to do various assignments, then contact us.

Knowledge sharing

At CIMSOLUTIONS, knowledge sharing is a top priority. Our senior architects lead the Special Interest Group Architecture and the Competence Center Architecture and regularly give workshops and presentations for colleagues and clients. In addition, they regularly publish articles and give guest lectures at colleges and universities.
