Integration & APIs
Replace fragile point-to-point connections with a managed integration layer, so data moves reliably between systems, partners and clouds.
Is this for you?
You might need this if…
Nobody has a full picture of your integrations, and a change in one system breaks something elsewhere.
Every new system or SaaS tool means another custom-built point-to-point connection.
Partners and customers want data through APIs, but you have no secure way to expose it.
Your EDI setup with suppliers and customers depends on a few people and an ageing platform.
What we deliver
What it covers
Integration architecture and strategy
We map your current integrations and design a target architecture with clear patterns for APIs, events, files and batch. Each new integration then follows a standard instead of being invented from scratch.
API management
We design and publish APIs with security, versioning, documentation and usage monitoring through an API gateway. Internal teams and partners get controlled, self-service access to your data and services.
Integration platforms
We implement and run integration platforms such as Azure Integration Services, MuleSoft and Boomi. Reusable connectors and central monitoring replace scattered scripts and custom code.
Event-driven and real-time integration
We design event-driven architectures with message brokers and streaming platforms such as Azure Service Bus, Event Grid and Apache Kafka. Systems react to changes as they happen instead of waiting for nightly batches.
EDI and B2B integration
We modernise EDI and B2B exchanges with suppliers and customers, using standards such as EDIFACT and Peppol. Partner onboarding gets faster and message flows are monitored end to end.
Our approach
How we work
01
Map
Inventory existing integrations, data flows, owners and failure points, and identify the biggest risks.
02
Architect
Choose patterns, platform and governance for the target integration landscape.
03
Build
Implement the platform and migrate integrations in priority order, with automated testing and deployment.
04
Operate
Monitor message flows, alert on failures and manage the API and integration lifecycle.
Best practices
What we bring to every engagement
API-first by default
New capabilities are exposed through well-designed APIs, so they can be reused rather than rebuilt for each consumer.
Choose the right pattern
Synchronous APIs, events, files and batch each have their place, and the choice follows the business need, not habit.
Integrations are products
Each integration has an owner, documentation, versioning and service levels, just like an application.
Monitor the business flow
Monitoring tracks whether an order or invoice actually arrived, not just whether a server is up.
Security at every layer
Authentication, authorisation, encryption and rate limiting are applied consistently through the gateway.
Automate delivery
Integrations are deployed through CI/CD pipelines with automated tests, so changes are fast and repeatable.
Outcomes
What you get
- A complete map of current integrations and data flows
- A target integration architecture and pattern guide
- A running integration platform with central monitoring
- Secure, documented APIs in a developer portal
- Modernised EDI and B2B partner connections
- A governance model for the integration lifecycle
AI-powered
Unleash the power of AI
We offer the possibility of using AI throughout this work: ready-to-use AI tools, or a customised version built for your organisation that can run inside your own infrastructure. In integration work, AI analyses legacy integration code and message logs to document existing flows, suggests data mappings between systems, and helps spot unusual error patterns before they disrupt the business.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Which integration platform should we choose?
It depends on your cloud strategy, existing skills, number of integrations and partner ecosystem. We compare options such as Azure Integration Services, MuleSoft and Boomi against your needs, and are open about which platforms our partners specialise in.
How long does it take to modernise our integrations?
A review and target architecture typically takes about a month. Migrating integrations to a new platform is usually done in waves over several months, starting with the most critical or fragile ones.
Do we need to replace all existing integrations at once?
No. Integrations are usually migrated gradually, with the old and new running side by side until each flow is moved. This keeps risk low and lets you see value early.
Can you work with our system vendors?
Yes. Integration always involves several suppliers, and as your single point of contact we coordinate with each system vendor so that interfaces are agreed and tested end to end.
