Method

Parametric Ideation

Design by constraints, not guesses. System goals, risks, dependencies, and environmental conditions become parameters. Algorithms generate viable architectures that survive stress instead of hand-wavy designs.

How it works

  • Capture objectives, constraints, risks, and dependencies as parameters.
  • Generate multiple architecture paths and score them by resilience, cost, and integration drag.
  • Stress-test paths with failure-mode simulation and vendor exposure mapping.

Used for

  • Architecture decision-making and option ranking.
  • Multi-path solutions mapping to avoid brittle commitments.
  • Evaluating AI/OT/IT integration boundaries.

Why it’s unique

Commodity software shops can’t copy it—this is systems thinking encoded into a repeatable discipline.
