What I do

From integration to transformation

With over 25 years of experience in enterprise IT, I’ve learned that technology alone doesn’t solve organisational complexity. Real change happens when systems, processes, and people are aligned.

I work as an independent architect and consultant, bringing structure to messy landscapes and clarity to decisions that matter.

“Sustainable solutions arise when structure, flow and people move in the same direction.”

Services

Three areas of work

01

Business Process Architecture

Designing process frameworks organisations can actually use — from Lines of Business to operational scope models, built with the people who will carry them.

02

Middleware & Integration Architecture

End-to-end design of integration landscapes: SOA, EAI, BPM and B2B in complex, multi-stakeholder environments. Including team leadership and roadmap definition.

03

Change & Transition Support

Guiding teams and organisations through architectural transitions — from vision to implementation, with attention to both the technical and human dimensions of change.

Who I work with

Government bodies,
enterprises,
and complex organisations

Wherever IT complexity meets organisational change — provincial and municipal governments, enterprises in transition, and organisations building capability for the long term.

About

Independent. Direct. Experienced.

I’m Harco Smit, based in Germany, working primarily in the Benelux and Germany. Over 25 years I’ve moved from hands-on integration work to architectural leadership — and increasingly to the human and systemic side of change.

I work alone, which means you get the senior perspective on every conversation, every document, every decision.
