A usable first IT map in 2 to 6 weeks

In 2 to 6 weeks, turn your existing data and your teams' knowledge into a structured, interactive and shareable map. The scope, deliverables and level of support are defined with you in the quote.

What the engagement lets you build

The map is the central deliverable. It can be complemented by the views, summaries and materials your use case requires.

A dynamic map of your IT

Applications, teams, flows, data, projects or vendors: the assets in scope and their relationships are structured in a single base.

Interactive views make it easier to identify dependencies, inconsistencies and information that still needs to be explored.

At handover, your teams have a repository they can use in Boldo, not a frozen report.

Deliverable views tailored to your audiences

Leadership, IT, business teams or a project committee do not need the same level of detail.

We build filtered inventories, diagrams, charts or nested maps from the same repository to explain a trajectory, a finding or a project without rebuilding the materials for every presentation.

360 pages and scope-based views

Each owner finds the assets that concern them, their main properties, their owners and their dependencies.

These views can support day-to-day management, handover between teams or the creation of onboarding materials tailored to your organisation.

A synthesis of interviews and points to confirm

Important information is not always found in existing inventories. Interviews help document real usage, responsibilities, dependencies and the difficulties encountered.

The deliverable gathers the main findings, the contradictions between sources and the questions that remain open. These elements stay connected to the assets and decisions they relate to.

An engagement run by the team that builds Boldo

Our team supports you through scoping, data recovery, model structuring and building the first views.

You do not just receive a deliverable. You get a living knowledge base in Boldo that your teams can consult, enrich and maintain after the engagement.

For projects that require deeper sector, regulatory or transformation expertise, we can also point you to one of our partner firms.

Deliverables that stay usable after handover

Boldo has completely changed our approach to discovering and mapping our clients' organisation (IT, governance, projects). We save a considerable amount of time producing deliverables and communications.

A five-phase method, from scoping to autonomy

The precise content of each phase depends on the scope, the data available and the deliverables expected.

  1. Scoping the perimeter

    Defining the objectives, the first use cases, the asset types to map and the stakeholders to involve.

    Scoping makes it possible to build a first useful perimeter without waiting for an exhaustive inventory of the whole IT landscape.

  2. Collecting and recovering what exists

    Gathering the spreadsheets, CMDB extracts, documents, diagrams and other sources already available.

    Structured data is recovered through CSV or XLSX imports, then aligned with the metamodel defined for the engagement.

  3. Interviews with the teams

    Conversations with business and technical owners to complete the available information, document real usage and identify the dependencies that are not captured in existing tools.

  4. Consolidation and validation

    Aligning the different sources, handling duplicates, identifying contradictory information and progressively validating the scope with your teams.

  5. Handover, onboarding and next steps

    Presenting the views built, handing over the repository and defining the responsibilities needed to maintain the map.

    We also identify the next use cases to address and the level of detail to add progressively.

  • A metamodel tailored to the scope

    Business capabilities, teams, applications, flows, data, vendors or projects: we keep the objects and relationships needed for your first use cases.

  • A pragmatic level of detail

    The first collection focuses on the information that is genuinely useful to decisions. The model can then be enriched progressively as new use cases emerge.

A scope defined before kickoff

Each proposal specifies what will be mapped, the resources required and the deliverables expected.

  • Scope and data

    Asset types concerned, domains covered, sources to recover and the estimated volume of information to structure.

  • Interviews and workshops

    Number of stakeholders, scoping workshops, validation sessions and the availability expected from the client's contacts.

  • Deliverables and support

    Views to build, level of synthesis expected, team onboarding and any support after handover.

Frequently asked questions about the IT mapping service

A first usable perimeter can generally be built in 2 to 6 weeks.

The exact duration depends on the size of the scope, the quality of the data available, the number of stakeholders to involve and the level of validation expected.
