Workspace Design Services (Day 0)
Design it Right the First Time
Day 0 is where clarity replaces guesswork.
According to IBM, fixing a defect after deployment can cost up to 100× more than resolving it during the design phase. And 28% of failed IT transformation projects cite the absence of a clear architecture or roadmap as a primary cause (IBM, Gartner).
Anunta’s Day 0 design services help enterprises plan with confidence. We scope and align every technical layer—from user personas to identity, capacity, and compliance—so deployments launch on time, at scale, and without costly rework.

What’s Included in Day 0 Design
| Area | What We Deliver |
| Architecture Planning | Platform-agnostic design for Citrix, AVD, Horizon, Omnissa, and hybrid environments |
| User Persona Mapping | Role-based segmentation, app profiling, and image strategy |
| Capacity Modeling | VM sizing, storage strategy, and forecast-based scaling for growth |
| Security Architecture | Identity and access strategy, MFA/SSO, network segmentation, Zero Trust alignment |
| Cost Alignment | Infrastructure rightsizing and cloud resource planning tied to budget outcomes |
| Governance Planning | Policy modeling, compliance guardrails (HIPAA, SOC 2), audit-ready design |

Why Day 0 Matters
When architecture is rushed or skipped, rework becomes inevitable. Performance suffers, costs spike, and cloud reversals become necessary.
Many digital transformation projects fail to meet goals, often due to poor upfront planning. And 74% of companies have reversed cloud migrations due to unmet performance, cost, or compliance expectations.
Day 0 is where control, clarity, and ROI begin.

FAQ: Design Services
We offer Day 0 as a standalone engagement or as part of a full migration and deployment plan.
Citrix, AVD, Horizon, Omnissa, and hybrid setups (cloud/on-prem). We also plan around your specific identity, endpoint, and application stack.
We conduct baseline performance and cost modeling upfront. We use real-world benchmarks to project cloud usage, right-size VM pools, and recommend high-availability and scaling models.
Yes. We incorporate conditional access, device compliance, segmentation, and audit-ready policy design for industries with HIPAA, SOC 2, and ISO 27001 requirements.
Absolutely. We routinely co-design with internal teams, OEMs, and partner orgs to support integration and downstream implementation.
Prevent Rework. Design with Confidence.
Let’s build a workspace architecture that scales, secures, and supports your business—without Day 2 drama.
