Engagement format

Platform Engineering Transformation

Typical engagement 3-6 months

A delivery-led engagement focused on restructuring and standardising Kubernetes environments so they can scale reliably and be operated safely. We embed with your team and ship production-ready infrastructure in your environment, using your tools and change processes.

Typical workstreams

  • Platform architecture redesign and cluster standardisation
  • GitOps operating model implementation
  • Infrastructure as Code restructuring
  • Developer self-service and internal platform capabilities
  • CI/CD pipeline design and migration
  • Platform governance and ownership model
  • Cost optimisation

What you get

  • Standardised, well-governed Kubernetes platform
  • Reduced operational burden on platform teams
  • Self-service developer workflows
  • Documented architecture and runbooks
  • Knowledge transfer and team enablement
  • Measurable improvement in delivery velocity

Best suited for

Organisations where the problem is already understood and the priority is implementation. Often follows an assessment, or is engaged directly when platform teams are under operational strain and leadership needs a scalable, reliable operating model.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does a Transformation engagement involve?

Hands-on delivery embedded with your platform team. We restructure the Kubernetes estate, introduce or evolve the GitOps operating model, build self-service capabilities for engineering teams, and migrate workloads onto the new platform - working in your environment, using your tools and change processes.

Do you replace our platform team?

No. We work alongside your existing team. The goal is to ship production-ready infrastructure and transfer knowledge so your team remains the long-term owner of everything we build.

Do we need to start with an assessment?

Not always. Many clients move directly into a Transformation when the problem is already well understood. If scope is unclear, a 2-4 week Platform Engineering Assessment is a sensible starting point.

What does success look like?

A standardised, well-governed Kubernetes platform that your team can operate at lower cost and lower risk than before. Self-service workflows for application teams. Documented architecture and runbooks. Measurable improvements in delivery velocity, reliability, and operating cost.
