Appian Center of Excellence (COE) Services

Empower Your Enterprise with a World-Class Appian COE

Macedon Technologies is the expert in setting up and scaling Appian Centers of Excellence. We use a proven methodology for building COEs at companies in a range of key industries so they can stay at the forefront of best practices for Appian application development, release, and deployment.

When companies establish an Appian COE, they increase their chances of Appian project success. Companies with COEs get the most value from their Appian AI Platform.

A COE provides foundational support for application development, allowing companies to consistently deliver Appian high-quality solutions and achieve higher return on investment (ROI).

What Is an Appian Center of Excellence (COE)?

An Appian Center of Excellence provides support, oversight, and operational best practices for Appian AI Platform implementations and application development. The COE is the strategic hub that sets development standards, fosters innovation, governs reuse, and drives Appian success across teams.

With Macedon COE Services, your company can assemble a leadership team to align project strategy and manage components shared between project teams to make sure you get full use of what you’ve already built using the platform.

Why Your Organization Needs a COE

Establishing a COE brings order to chaos by helping application development teams standardize processes, collaborate, and scale with confidence. Without centralized management and standardization of Appian initiatives, companies face many challenges, including:

Inconsistent delivery
Duplicated work
Siloed teams
Wasted development efforts
