At Recusant, we deliver Architecture as a Service (AaaS) to help organisations navigate complexity, accelerate delivery, and align technology with strategic goals. Our model blends strategic leadership, deep technical expertise, and flexible engagement to meet the evolving demands of modern enterprises.

Over a two-year period, a typical business would require 4 x architects full-time to support project delivery at various utilisations across the project portfolio.
Why AaaS?
Traditional architecture models are slow, rigid, and resource-intensive:
- •Recruitment lag: 4–8 weeks to hire specialised architects
- •Funding rigidity: Budgeting across projects is complex
- •Capacity constraints: Internal teams are often stretched thin
Recusant's AaaS model solves these challenges with on-demand access, scalable resources, and flexible funding-delivering architecture exactly when and where it's needed.
Our Architecture Capabilities
We offer a full spectrum of architectural services across four key domains:
1. Strategy

2. Delivery
Bringing Your Vision to Life
Solution Architects design scalable, practical solutions that reduce risk and accelerate project delivery.
3. Technology
Ensuring Technical Excellence
Technical Architects provide deep expertise in platforms, security, and integration, ensuring your systems are robust and fit for purpose.
4. Intelligence
