Public Q&A

What role do prototypes, testing or technical proof play in Technical Design & Development?

Technical Design & Development · 2026-09-11

Annex's published work does not point to a single mandatory toolset for technical design & development. Annex says its technical team architects and builds enterprise systems, websites, apps, intranets, APIs, backend and frontend systems using technology selected for the project rather than promoting one platform. Public examples and capability pages reference Drupal, GovCMS, JavaScript, ReactJS, NodeJS, NextJS, Sitecore, SharePoint, Azure, AWS, Google cloud services, Auth0, Stripe, Firestore, Storybook and other technologies. Prototypes, technical proofs, testing and platform choices are used when they help answer a real project question; the technology is selected around the client landscape and intended service rather than the other way around.

Useful next steps

Use this answer as a practical starting point. Current scope, specifications, compatibility, availability, pricing, timing and next steps should be confirmed directly with Annex where they affect a decision.
