Unique Integrated View of Transformation (The Pyramid)

The pyramid structure itself represents a unique, holistic, and integrated service offering that moves beyond traditional technical EA:

Integrated Pillars:
  • Governance & Outcome Management: Ensures every initiative is tied back to measurable results and controlled processes.
  • Personalization, Usability & Usage Management: A strong focus on the user experience and adoption, which is often a missing piece in purely technical EA firms.
  • Business Data Management: A dedicated focus on the data foundation (Business Data Model, Operational Data Model) as an essential element, not an afterthought.
Layered Approach:
  • Nextgen Strategy at the top (Vision).
  • Digital Transformation Readiness Index (Assessment).
  • Architecture Layers (Logical, Operational, Information, Application).
  • Organizational Capabilities (Business Process Maturity, Data Model) at the base (Foundation).
Foundation of Integration:
  • The base of the pyramid is Interoperability – Ecosystem Integration, indicating the firm specializes in solving complex, borderless business challenges.

Architectural & Data Rigor

Data and Compliance Foundation:
  • We establish Master Data Management (MDM) and architecture compliant with stringent industry standards like IATA (NDC), ICD-10, SNOMED CT, and HCPCS, guaranteeing data interoperability, clinical efficacy, and billing accuracy.
Technical Blueprinting:
  • We use UML-based Systems Requirements Elaboration (Class, State, Sequence Diagrams) to form the precise Definition of Done – Acceptance Criterion, including critical non-functional metrics for performance and security.
Accreditations:
  • Our methodologies are rigorously aligned with global standards: TOGAF, Zachman, COBIT, Prosci, and Six Sigma.

Testimonials

Dr. Vicky Kothari

Head – Supply Chain Business, Affordplan

Working with Vivek was a game-changer for our platform development.

In the consulting world, it is rare to find someone with Vivek’s level of integrity and candor. He is not the type of consultant who simply nods along; if he spots a flaw in the logic or a risk in the architecture, he speaks up immediately and offers a better solution.

He is meticulously detailed, punctually reliable, and refreshingly straightforward.

His work defined our system requirements and cleared the path for our development team to build with confidence.

If you want a partner who will ensure things are done right, hire Vivek.

Ramachandra Balakrishnan

Chief Operating Officer, Digitech Labs

As a growing start-up company, we have been engaging Vivikta Advisory for the last 5 years in our efforts to build our portfolio of offerings. They have been a key value addition to our efforts in building our technology competencies, solutions and partnerships.

Their technical depth and resourcefulness helped us partner with most appropriate companies and helped us to scale faster to compete in the market.

We would recommend Vivikta Advisory for their technical and solutioning acumen and for their technology ecosystem strengths as differentiators besides their professional and efficient ability to deliver on commitments.

Som Sarma Royyuru

Head, UK & Ireland-Banking &
Capital Markets, Capgemini

It is a pleasure to have been associated with you over the years and I am happy to provide my views on your work and contributions to various industry sectors.

I guess your memberships, certifications and customer accolades are mere reflections of the calibre and insight you bring to work. One rarely sees the kind of passion and focus that you have to architecture and process management in organizations spanning various sectors such as healthcare, insurance, supply chain and manufacturing.

It is therefore a moot point that your contributions have been recognized in countries such as Colombia and Russia, apart from India. The interoperable architectures you have designed and implemented for healthcare and health insurance sectors speak for themselves.

It is very nice to also learn that you have moved quite ahead in integrating AI and LLM based projects of late.

Lastly, I would be amiss if I did not speak about your collaborative spirit; to me this is central to the success of most complex projects that span technologies, processes and stakeholders. Many a time, I have seen your direct impact to leadership behaviors that have reflected in the right outcomes for many assignments that you delivered.
