To sustain a high rate of API and integration delivery over a long series of business change projects, you need independent high-performing teams that operate within an overall architecture for collaboration. At Torry Harris, we can craft Agile, collab-driven governance because we know which API and integration designs matter most, when to apply how much governance, and how to structure flexible, automated asset life cycles.
What we do for API and integration governance
Assessing your API and integration maturity, then crafting an improvement plan customized to your organization's culture and business goals
Building flexible governance structures, processes, and mechanisms that apply less or more governance based on business criticality, data sensitivity, security risk, and other contextual factors
Establishing strong API and integration taxonomies, design patterns, and decision trees, which are the foundation for connecting teams and guiding Agile governance
Growing the organizational culture and competence you need for teams to operate in the collaborative-independent style needed for Agile governance

Our approach and tools
For APIs and integration, well-crafted designs build long-term agility. Offhanded, isolated designs make only one-time point solutions. But design governance must be flexible so that you can let teams work independently on low-risk assets while requiring efficient collaboration for assets that most impact business agility. To make this happen at your organization, we ensure a strong understanding of:
- When and how API and integration design affect business agility
- How to determine the right level of governance for a given API or integration
- How to establish and evolve API taxonomies and design guidance
- How to evolve coherent portfolios of APIs that work together
- How to choose the right integration style and tool for each situation
