Constraints aren’t the enemy.
They’re reality.
And the earlier you face them, the better your design will be.
Myth 16: “Technical constraints are decided later.”
This belief is a recipe for disaster.
When constraints are ignored early, they always come back — at the worst possible time.
I’ve seen it first-hand:
👉 A cloud migration project assumed every system could be lifted and shifted.
Near the end, the team discovered a critical application wasn’t cloud-compatible.
The result? Six months of delay and costly redesign.
The QTAM Difference
The Quick Technical Architecture Method (QTAM) makes technical constraints visible from the start.
- Identify performance and scalability limits
- Flag integration dependencies
- Surface security and compliance requirements
- Expose legacy issues early
By treating constraints as design inputs — not afterthoughts — QTAM helps you avoid late-stage surprises.
Why It Matters
When constraints are discovered early:
- Teams design realistic solutions
- Risks are managed, not hidden
- Schedules and budgets stay safe
When discovered late, they derail everything.
Take the Next Step
Don’t let hidden constraints kill your project.
