FAQPage Schema
How do I align technical architecture with my business model and revenue strategy?

Business-architecture alignment maps your technical infrastructure decisions directly to revenue models and unit economics. BMAD Method helps you design systems that sustain profitability at scale by connecting architectural choices to specific business outcomes, ensuring your infrastructure supports your growth targets and margin requirements.

When should I redesign architecture for scalability, and how do I plan for different growth stages?

Scalability planning occurs at MVP launch, growth transitions, and major redesigns. BMAD Method designs architecture for specific stages—from MVP to enterprise—by modeling unit economics and cost sustainability, so you make infrastructure decisions that match your actual revenue model at each growth phase.

How do I decide between build versus buy for technical infrastructure given business constraints?

Build-versus-buy decisions depend on your revenue model, unit economics, and cost structure. BMAD Method analyzes whether custom architecture or purchased solutions align with your business targets, helping you choose based on profitability impact rather than technical preference alone.

What's the relationship between pricing models and multi-tenant versus single-tenant architecture?

Your pricing model and target margins directly determine architecture efficiency requirements. BMAD Method maps subscription pricing, tiering, and margin targets to architectural choices—such as multi-tenancy—showing which infrastructure pattern sustains your business goals at a specific customer scale.

How do I model unit economics and cost sustainability when designing scalable infrastructure?

Unit-economics modeling connects per-customer revenue to infrastructure costs across growth stages. BMAD Method generates a lifecycle workflow from business model analysis through cost modeling, showing how architectural decisions impact unit economics and whether your infrastructure remains profitable as you scale.

Can I use this method for SaaS, API platforms, marketplaces, and consumer products?

BMAD Method applies across SaaS, API platforms, marketplaces, and consumer products. It solves business-architecture misalignment for any model by aligning infrastructure with revenue streams, cost structures, and scaling requirements specific to each product category.
