Our approach to MACH

Composable commerce is a journey and it is important to phase any implementation. Starting on this journey doesn’t mean that you have to ditch all legacy systems and start with a clean slate. In fact, a truly effective MACH strategy will deliver value from innovative new MACH services but also unlock value sequestered in your existing tech. Moving to MACH doesn’t have to be all of nothing. Here’s how we help organisations to phase their MACH journey.

Targeted

Replacing specific applications or elements of applications with minimal impact to the existing tech estate. Establishing early levels of automation.

Mature

An extensive build or migration of multiple parts of the ecosystem, creating significant changes to integration and service layer, using best-of-breed SaaS components.

Innovating

Leveraging MACH principles to drive innovation and efficiencies in the business. Integrating additional systems and fast data processing.

The benefits of a composable approach

Speed

Smaller, distributed deployments mean quicker responses to market trends with more resilient systems composed of cloud services.

Cost efficient

Benefit from on demand licensing and manage investment across different product or ecosystem elements.

Freedom to innovate

Quicker ROI through faster implementation with lower risk on core applications.

Syndication

A service first approach, opening services across owned and external channels.

Scalability

Roll out features and applications without joining a slow-moving release train.
