Architecture that compounds.
Selected engagements where the work outlasted the engagement — where the architecture became institutional infrastructure rather than a consulting artefact.
Case · Tier-1 Bank · GCC
"They didn't hand us a slide deck. They handed us a target architecture our engineers could build against on Monday."— Group CIO, regional banking client
Core modernisation · 14 months
Replatforming a 40-year-old core, without stopping the bank.
A regional banking group operating across five jurisdictions had accumulated three decades of architectural debt: 9 fragmented core systems, 1,400+ point-to-point integrations, and a mainframe nearing end-of-vendor-support.
DUOARCH delivered a target architecture, a phased migration plan, and the embedded delivery hands that took the first two domains live — without a single customer-facing outage across any cutover window.

Case · Ministry of Finance · Gulf
"The architecture review they ran gave our board a language for technology risk they did not have before. That alone was worth the engagement."— Deputy Minister, sovereign technology programme
Sovereign cloud strategy · 9 months
Designing the citizen-services platform for a national digital agenda.
A Gulf-region Ministry was under mandate to digitise 400+ citizen services within 36 months. The existing estate — a patchwork of on-premise systems, legacy ERP modules, and manual workflows — was not the foundation to build from.
DUOARCH designed the sovereign cloud architecture, the application portfolio rationalisation plan, and the target operating model for the new digital directorate. The engagement concluded with the first 40 services live on the new platform.

Case · Tier-2 Insurer · London
"We had data everywhere and insight nowhere. DUOARCH built the information architecture that changed that relationship permanently."— Chief Data Officer, London market insurer
Information architecture · 12 months
Turning a fragmented data estate into a competitive underwriting asset.
A London market insurer carried 11 years of policy, claims, and exposure data across six incompatible systems — none of which could speak to each other at the speed underwriting required. Pricing relied on manual extracts and human memory.
DUOARCH designed the enterprise data conceptual model, the warehouse architecture, and the BI layer that placed accurate, real-time exposure summaries in front of underwriters for the first time. Governance was built in from day one.

Case · Tier-1 Telco · Nordic
"The AI architecture they designed is the one we are still running. Two years later, no architectural debt from the decisions they made."— CTO, Nordic telecommunications group
AI platform architecture · 8 months
Building the AI operating model before the hype made it expensive.
A Nordic telecommunications group had 14 AI pilots running with no shared infrastructure, no data governance, and no deployment standards. Each team had built its own MLOps stack. The organisation was generating technical debt faster than it was generating AI value.
DUOARCH designed the unified AI platform architecture — data, compute, model registry, deployment, and monitoring — and the governance framework that allowed teams to move fast without creating the next generation of fragmentation.
