Architectural Decision Record (ADR) & RFC Systems

Capture engineering decisions where they belong: right inside your git repository

Establish a sustainable, zero-friction system for proposing, discussing, and archiving technical architecture decisions (ADRs) and Request for Comments (RFCs) without slowing down development cadence.

Architectural Decision Record (ADR) & RFC Systems
Duration 1 to 2 weeks
Pricing Basis Starting from NT$85,000 per engineering department
Delivery Mode Remote workshops and git repository pull request workflows
Consulting Format Workflow consulting, repository template authoring, and team facilitation

Deliverables & Artifacts

Every engagement produces concrete, version-controlled artifacts authored in markdown and standardized schema formats:

  • ✓ Customized ADR & RFC Markdown Templates adapted to your team's decision velocity
  • ✓ Automated ADR Indexing Tooling (adr-tools, git hooks, table-of-contents generators)
  • ✓ Decision Review Workflow Protocol (PR review criteria, RFC approval milestones)
  • ✓ Team Decision Writing Style Guide with 5 real-world historical examples from your own system
