Platform
One system, several audiences inside it.
A regional education board · Custom education management platform
A custom platform for managing educational resources and the people who use them, where administrators, staff and end users each need a different view of the same underlying material.

Off-the-shelf assumed the wrong shape
Education platforms exist, but they assume a structure. When the organisation does not match that structure, you spend the next several years working around software you are paying for.
The architecture was the deliverable
Most of the value here sat in the data model, because that is the decision that is expensive to reverse once real content and real users are in the system.
Brought in for the part they could not build
Delivered with partners who handled design and the client relationship. I led architecture and development, which is the pattern whenever an agency reaches the edge of what it can deliver.
