DevOps and Platform Engineering

Accelerate Delivery. Reduce Rework. Build with Confidence.

In today’s fast-moving digital economy, slow releases and unstable platforms are more than an inconvenience - they’re a threat to your reputation and bottom line. If your organisation is struggling with delivery friction, release delays, and inconsistent performance, it’s time to rethink your approach to software delivery.

Afor’s DevOps and Platform Engineering service is designed to help mid-sized to large organisations in New Zealand and Australia deliver faster, safer, and more cost-effectively at scale. We bring deep engineering expertise to streamline pipelines, reduce costly rework, and improve release reliability across complex hybrid environments.

Why DevOps and Platform Engineering Matters

Many organisations invest heavily in DevOps toolchains, only to find that their delivery pipelines remain fragile, siloed, or overly dependent on manual interventions. The result? Missed deadlines, quality issues in production, and increased operational costs. At Afor, we go beyond tooling. Our integrated approach aligns DevOps, test automation, and platform engineering to deliver lasting performance and scale.

Whether you are running applications in the cloud, on-premises, or in hybrid environments, Afor helps you optimise every layer of your delivery architecture. We embed quality and performance engineering throughout the lifecycle, giving your teams the confidence to release frequently without sacrificing stability or speed.

What We Deliver

Afor’s DevOps and Platform Engineering offering includes:

Automated Delivery Pipelines that reduce manual effort, accelerate feedback loops, and enforce consistency across environments
Platform Engineering Services that design scalable, secure, and reliable infrastructure for cloud-native and hybrid workloads
Integrated Test Automation to validate performance, security, and stability early and often throughout the development lifecycle
Observability and Reliability Engineering practices to detect and resolve issues before they impact users or delay go-to-market plans
Governed DevOps Frameworks to support regulated industries and organisations with complex compliance needs

Our “build-as-you-go” approach focuses on catching issues early - before they become production bottlenecks. This enables teams to maintain velocity while reducing firefighting and rework, ultimately delivering greater business value from your technology investments.

Why Choose Afor?

With Afor offers a unique combination of hands-on engineering and strategic delivery consulting. We don’t just implement tools - we build resilient delivery platforms that empower your teams, reduce your dependency on manual processes, and improve your ability to scale.

Our approach is built on three differentiators:

End-to-end engineering capability across DevOps, platform, and test automation
Embedded quality gates in CI/CD pipelines to detect issues before they reach production
Framework-led governance that embeds quality and scalability into every step

We help organisations move from ad-hoc delivery practices to governed, scalable DevOps models that support long-term growth and reduce operational drag.

Built for Complex, Modern Environments

Unlike one-size-fits-all DevOps providers, Afor’s engineering-led delivery model is designed specifically for organisations operating in complex, evolving environments. From legacy system integration to container-based microservices, we build DevOps solutions that are tailored, scalable, and future-proof.

We understand the pressures facing enterprise IT - budget constraints, compliance requirements, and the constant need to do more with less. Our team works closely with your developers, QA, operations, and platform teams to co-design solutions that balance agility with control.
