Why Hire A Salesforce Fractional Architect

Professional man promoting Salesforce Fractional Architect services with key benefits.

Vertical Industry, Platform Knowledge and Experience

Solution and Technical Architects bring knowledge, experience, and leadership skills to your business in alignment with your IT goals and budget.  Architects also provide guidance and recommendations to ensure your IT department is delivering  maximum value to your business.

Fractional: "A La Carte" Hours and Pricing

Many Salesforce business users can't or don't want to hire a full-time Architect.  Our solution enables clients to select the best type of architect matching your requirements - and you choose the number of hours or engagements that fit within your budget.

Capabilities and Responsibilities

Salesforce Architects translate business processes into Salesforce functionalities. Focus is on maximizing Salesforce OOB (out of the box) features within your current Salesforce licensing contract to maximize your investment in the platform. 

Audits, Assessments, Reviews, and Documentation

Architects regularly run Org scans, health checks, security risk assessments, license audits as well as maintain pre-determined client KPIs and overall platform goals. All of which are reviewed via scheduled cadence with department and executive stakeholders

Communication and Leadership

Architects are inquisitive & investigative - particularly around business processes,  data and metadata. Communication and leadership skills are essential within a collaborative teamwork environment.

Future Planning, Road Mapping, AI-Enablement

Architects understand the current Salesforce Org configuration but keep an eye on future products & enhancements (such as AI). Strategic road-mapping, planning, and cadence ensure predictable budgetary planning & long-term user benefits.
