Heck Consulting is an independent consultancy that helps organizations maximize their information technology activities to achieve significant improvements in business performance.
We recognize the Enterprise Business Architecture as a key enabler for identifying and implementing performance boosters for companies whose core business strategies rely on information systems processing.

While Enterprise Architecture is our preferred methodological approach for information systems planning, we use The Open Group Architecture Framework (TOGAF) as the first choice in our assignments. Beside our participation in The Open Group Architecture Forum we keep on top and up-to-date with our knowledge and skills through active participation in organizations like ISACA and PMI, as well as through best practice sharing across a partner network spanning Western Europe.
We are located in Munich, Germany, where we co-founded the Bavarian Enterprise Architecture Work Group in January 2006. We primarily support customers in Germany and France for which we offer TOGAF training and consulting, among other information systems strategy planning related services.


Approach

We are positioned as both Business and IT Architects and frequently work on problems which require bridging the gap between these two worlds. Our expertise in this field, coupled with an extensive experience in project management, let us provide efficient business consulting which produces convincing results.
Our main focus in the beginning of an information systems strategy planning assignment is on capturing and modeling the organization’s business architecture. It provides the foundation from which we define integrated and adaptive IT architectures capable of evolving with and supporting the corporate strategy.
We encourage and support customers in their effort of building enterprise architecture management practice with the implementation of TOGAF as the framework from which we derive and adapt organization specific structures, processes, methods and tools.
Our engagement does not stop with the definition of actions. We often actively support its implementation as project managers, helping our customers realizing the concepts and getting real benefit out of it.
