    • Prioritizing pain points to focus on what matters most
    • Designing future-ready architecture scenarios
    • Building a practical implementation roadmap

    At BCG Platinion, we help organizations rethink their technology foundations while keeping business strategy front and center. This simulation gives you a chance to practice that balance of technical insight and strategic problem solving, and to see how IT Architects create impact in real consulting projects.

    The best part? You’ll get to test your skills in a risk-free, flexible, self-paced environment. You can compare your work with example answers from our IT Architects to see how professionals approach the same challenges.
