Get the most out of AWS MAP with Adaptavist

It's made up of tools, training approaches, and expertise from AWS Partner Network partners (like Adaptavist). The tools keep costs down and automate certain aspects of AWS Cloud migration. While the training, content, and partner expertise help make the process as smooth as possible. Using MAP means you can build strong AWS Cloud foundations, keep risk to a minimum, and, crucially, offset the initial cost of migration.

This first phase is based on a migration readiness assessment, which helps to identify any gaps in your organisation's understanding of the six dimensions of the AWS Cloud Adoption Framework: business, process, people, platform, operations, and security.

We review your current infrastructure, estimate costs, and define a business case for migration. AWS then completes and approves the assessment.

Funding: Typically, 5% of the projected migration spend in 1 year (Annual Recurring Revenue, ARR) is available as cash or credits after AWS approves the migration readiness assessment.

Timeframe: 2–4 weeks; funding released within 1–2 weeks of approval.

This phase is about getting ready for migration, helping you build an operational foundation for phase three. Its goal is to fix any of the capability and technical gaps we identified in the assessment phase. Mobilisation will accelerate decision-making with clear guidance to set your migration up for success. We'll create and approve a migration readiness plan and tooling and build a landing zone for your migration.

Funding: Typically, 20% of the projected ARR is funded in cash or credits once the environment is prepared and all pre-migration tasks have been completed. Additional benefits can be realised for other projects, including if it involves VMware migration or is a greenfield project.

Timeframe: 4–8 weeks; funding released within 1–2 weeks of approval.

It's time to migrate! This is where we achieve your go-live milestones, and all your workloads are successfully migrated to AWS Cloud. We'll execute the migrations, modernise any workloads where needed, and complete the project.

Funding: For this phase, you can expect to receive around 15–25% of the projected ARR as AWS credits once the workload has been delivered and verified. Additional credits available for migrations VMware workloads, SAP workloads, Oracle applications and more.

Timeframe: 8–24 weeks, depending on the scope of your migration; funding released within 2–4 weeks of migration milestone sign-off.

Once funding is secured, it's typically issued as a combination of cash (for professional services) and/or AWS credits. We pass those funds on to you by reducing your services invoice or applying AWS credits directly to your account.

We take care of the entire claims process, ensuring all AWS documentation is accurate and aligned, and tracking deliverables against your migration milestones.
