Commonly Asked Questions

Our turnaround time depends on the size and complexity of the engagement, but for most projects we aim to get from initial scoping to a clear delivery plan within 5–10 working days, and from kick-off to first tangible deliverable within 2–6 weeks for typical application or integration work. How we define turnaround time: Turnaround time is the period from when you formally submit a request or project brief to when we deliver the agreed outcome back to you. In practice that means measuring from the moment we receive your requirements to the point where you have a working solution or clearly defined project artefact (such as a design, POC, or deployed feature) in your hands. Typical timeframes by engagement type: - Discovery & advisory (assess legacy system, propose roadmap): 5–10 working days from workshop to documented recommendations. - Small enhancements or integrations (e.g. targeted BMC Remedy change, API integration, minor app feature): usually 2–4 weeks from kick-off to deployment, assuming environments and access are ready. - Larger modernisation or net-new application work: typically 6–12 weeks for a first major release, depending on legacy complexity, data migration, and stakeholder availability. What can speed things up: Turnaround time shrinks significantly when requirements are well-defined, stakeholders are available for quick decisions, and technical access (VPN, test data, environments) is prepared early. Using agile delivery, we aim to provide incremental value every 1–2 weeks, so you see working software or configuration changes well before the final milestone.

Yes. We design our services and solutions to comply with GDPR by default, and we can deliver HIPAA-aligned implementations where required as part of a shared-responsibility model with you and your cloud/platform providers. GDPR (including UK GDPR): For EU and UK data subjects, we follow GDPR principles such as lawfulness, fairness, transparency, purpose limitation, data minimisation, integrity, confidentiality, and accountability. In practice this means implementing access controls, encryption in transit and at rest, clear data retention policies, data mapping, and audit logging across the solutions we build or modernise for you. We expect a valid legal basis for any personal data processing and support your obligations around data subject rights (access, correction, erasure, and objection) by designing appropriate data flows and admin tooling. We also align our delivery processes with GDPR-style governance: documenting processing activities, supporting DPIAs where needed, and helping you meet breach-notification expectations. HIPAA and health data projects: HIPAA applies specifically to covered entities and their business associates in the US healthcare context, so compliance is always a shared responsibility between you, us, and the cloud/SAAS vendors involved. Where we work with PHI, we follow standard HIPAA safeguards: role-based access, encryption, audit trails, environment isolation, and support for Business Associate Agreement (BAA) requirements with relevant hosting providers or platforms. Our role is to ensure the applications, integrations, and data workflows we build can operate within a HIPAA-compliant environment and do not undermine your organisational security and privacy controls. We can also work with your compliance team to translate your existing privacy and security policies into concrete technical controls in the solution architecture.

We deliberately keep our active client portfolio small so we can stay hands-on; typically that means a low single-digit number of major projects at any one time, plus a handful of smaller support or advisory engagements. Capacity and focus: We prioritise depth over volume, so each senior consultant is committed to only one or two primary clients at a time. This lets us stay close to your team, respond quickly, and keep context across complex legacy and integration work. Our delivery planning always includes explicit capacity checks before we accept new projects to avoid over-commitment. How we scale if needed: When a programme requires more capacity, we scale with a blended team model: core Archanis leads plus additional engineers and specialists as needed. We can also phase workstreams over agreed sprints so you get predictable delivery without your project competing for resources behind the scenes.

We collaborate in blended teams with our clients, using agile delivery, clear communication rhythms, and shared tools so you always know what is happening, what’s next, and how decisions are made. Day-to-day collaboration: We start by understanding your goals, constraints, and success metrics, and then agree roles, responsibilities, and decision-makers on both sides. From there, we work in short iterations with regular stand-ups or check-ins, demos at the end of each sprint, and a single shared backlog so priorities are always transparent. We use collaboration tools that fit your environment (for example Jira/Azure DevOps for work tracking and Teams/Slack for communication) to keep discussion, decisions, and documentation easy to follow. You have direct access to our engineers and consultants, not just an account manager, so questions and feedback flow quickly both ways. Co-creation and feedback: We treat clients as collaborators, not just stakeholders, and actively involve your teams in discovery, solution design, and reviews. That means sharing prototypes and early versions, inviting feedback, and adjusting based on what we learn together rather than disappearing into a long build phase. Throughout the engagement, we measure against agreed outcomes and regularly review what is working and what needs adjusting, so the way we collaborate can evolve with your needs. After go-live, we stay engaged for hypercare and knowledge transfer to ensure your teams are confident owning and operating the solution.

We do not publish a single headline “success rate” or ROI percentage because each project’s value case is different, but for most clients we target (and help them measure) positive ROI within 6–24 months, with many software and automation initiatives comfortably exceeding typical corporate hurdle rates. How we define success: Success is agreed upfront for each engagement in terms of business outcomes, not just technical delivery. This usually includes metrics like reduced manual effort, faster cycle times, higher data quality, improved customer experience, or increased revenue conversion. We then link those outcomes to financial value (time saved, cost avoided, additional revenue) so you have a clear way to calculate realised ROI once the solution is live. Typical ROI patterns for our kind of work: Industry studies show that well-chosen software and IT projects often deliver strong returns: median multi‑year ROI around 2–3x (for every 1 invested, 2–3 returned) and payback periods often under 1–2 years, depending on scope. Automation, workflow optimisation, and better use of data—exactly the areas we focus on with legacy modernisation and application development—tend to sit at the higher end of that range because they directly reduce operating costs and unlock new capacity. Practically, we usually frame ROI for you in terms of a target payback window (for example: “this investment should pay for itself within 12–18 months”), then track whether the benefits being realised match or exceed that expectation. We also look at non-financial indicators like user adoption, incident reduction, and stakeholder satisfaction as part of the overall success picture.
