Building a No-Code Center of Excellence with VoltusWave

For decades, we've helped organizations transform their software development approach and business operations. We've distilled this expertise into the Digital Execution Practice, a set of guidelines that empowers you to build and maintain No-Code Centers of Excellence (CoEs). These CoEs enable you to consistently deliver the software your organization needs. 

What is a No-Code Center of Excellence? 

A No-Code CoE is a vital capability that helps you meet your software development needs. It fosters continuous improvement, collaborative learning, community building, and practical application. Unlike a static approach, it's an evolving journey focused on maximizing the benefits of no-code development. 

The Foundation: The 5Ps 

The five core components of Digital Execution, also known as the 5Ps, form the foundation of a successful No-Code CoE: 

  • Portfolio: Manage the applications your CoE will develop and maintain. 

  • People: Assemble the right team with the necessary skills and expertise. 

  • Process: Establish efficient and repeatable development processes. 

  • Platform: Choose the right no-code platform, like VoltusWave. 

  • Promotion: Champion the CoE and its value within your organization. 

The Structure of a No-Code CoE: 

The CoE is responsible for everything surrounding the software delivery capability, including: 

  • Strategy & Execution: Providing vision and overseeing the execution of the CoE's goals. 

  • Architecture & Governance: Ensuring integration with your broader IT landscape and adhering to established standards. 

  • Domain Experts: Subject matter experts who ensure applications meet user requirements and adhere to technical best practices. 

  • Foundation & Tools: Training and resources for both technical and domain experts to build the foundational elements needed for success, such as design systems and automated testing. 

Start, Structure, Scale: Building Your CoE 

Our structured Digital Execution Practice guides you through three key phases: 

  • Start: Establish the groundwork by identifying key individuals, defining objectives, and selecting VoltusWave as your no-code platform. This phase focuses on building a single app development team and delivering a successful application to demonstrate the viability of the CoE. 

  • Structure: As your CoE matures, expand your application portfolio and create multiple development teams by disseminating knowledge and fostering scalability. Appoint a Program Owner to provide leadership, ownership, and ensure efficient resource management. 

  • Scale: Achieve seamless integration of all CoE components. This stage signifies well-established processes and widespread adoption of no-code development within your organization. Key activities include taking ownership of governance and methodology, executing deployments at scale, and implementing automated testing. 

Positioning Your No-Code CoE: 

There are two main CoE models: 


  • Centralized: Centralized decision-making and standardization with all development initiatives managed by the CoE. 

  • Decentralized: Responsibilities and decision-making distributed across various units, allowing for localized adaptation. 

Conclusion: 

By following our Digital Execution Practice and leveraging VoltusWave's no-code platform, you can accelerate your software development transformation in a controlled and sustainable manner. We offer services packages to support your journey, empowering agile business engineering and fast-tracking your time to value. 

Remember, with VoltusWave, you can embark on your no-code development journey at your own pace.
