Architect

In the context of the Systems Architecture discipline, the Architect is a professional specialising in the management of systemic Complexity. Cognisant of the entire System, the Architect works closely with the full range of key stakeholders and diverse subject matter experts relevant to a complex System to develop or analyse a system architecture

Importantly, the Architect complements and does not replace the many diverse functions that require specific discipline expertise in a complex System.
