How We Work
The ByteWave 5D Delivery Model — Discover, Design, Develop, Deploy, Defend. A fixed, regulator-defensible sequence for shipping ERP, CRM, Snowflake, Databricks, AI, Cloud and Risk platforms at regulated enterprises. 200+ programs run through 5D without a single missed go-live on a tier-1 program. Adapted from the US DoD CCMD acquisition playbook, hardened on European bank migrations, refined against Basel III/IV, DORA, NIS2, EU AI Act and HIPAA evidence requirements. Phase 01 Discover (2–4 weeks): business outcome mapping, system inventory, regulator matrix, fixed-price SOW. Phase 02 Design (4–8 weeks): target architecture, security model, AI roadmap, FinOps. Phase 03 Develop (4–18 months): CI/CD from day one, eval harness, automated audit evidence. Phase 04 Deploy (4–12 weeks): wave-based rollout, parallel-run, regulator-grade evidence pack. Phase 05 Defend (12+ months): managed operations, quarterly regulator-readiness review, annual DR test, AI re-evaluation.
