The software architecture scan reveals risks, couplings, and knowledge gaps hiding in your systems. We provide actionable recommendations to mitigate those risks, reduce costs, and accelerate development.
For Energy companies, legacy systems and hidden dependencies are slowing innovation, driving up costs, and introducing operational risk. As regulatory pressure intensifies, having a clear view of your architecture is critical to staying competitive.
Why your architecture quality matters
Outdated, overly complex, or poorly structured systems create bottlenecks that block change. Hidden couplings and undocumented knowledge silos make modernization efforts costly and unpredictable. Without visibility into your software architecture, every IT decision becomes a gamble, and transformation efforts stall before they start.
How well do you know your software portfolio?
The Software Architecture Scan gives you a data-backed, objective view of your systems’ structure and complexity. By analyzing your source code with SIG’s Architecture Quality Model—benchmarked against the world’s largest software quality database—you’ll identify critical bottlenecks and receive clear, actionable recommendations to reduce technical debt, guide modernization, and build future-proof architecture.
What will you gain from a Software Architecture Scan?
Executive + Technical Reports
Receive two tailored reports: a boardroom-ready executive summary for strategic alignment, and a technical deep-dive filled with actionable system-level insights for architects and developers.
Unbiased Architecture Evaluation
Get an objective view of your current architecture using SIG’s TÜViT-certified model assessing your codebase across globally recognized software quality criteria.
Global Benchmarking at Scale
Your system is benchmarked against over 300 billion lines of code in SIG’s database revealing how you compare to peers in your industry and where you can improve.
Technology-Agnostic Insight
Analyze any system, in any language. SIG supports over 300 technologies,including proprietary, custom-built, or legacy systems.
Actionable Recommendations for Modernization
Know exactly which systems to modernize, why, and how. We map high-risk architectural areas and provide practical steps to reduce cost, accelerate development, and improve maintainability.
What’s under the hood?
We assess nine core properties across five architectural pillars that determine the resilience and readiness of your systems:
- Structure – Are components modular and clearly defined?
- Communication – Do components interact cleanly and reliably?
- Data Access – Is critical data stored and retrieved efficiently?
- Evolution – Can the system adapt to change without breaking?
- Knowledge – Is architectural understanding distributed across teams?
