Core Components of Trantiate

The Trantiate methodology is powered by four foundational models that bring structure, evidence, readiness, and governance to modernization work.

What Are Components?

Components define the inner mechanics of Trantiate. While the TRANT lifecycle dictates the stages of transformation, these components define how work is actually performed, governed, validated, and accepted.

These components can be applied with or without automation — and will eventually be fully orchestrated by the Trantiator AI. For now, they provide a structured toolkit for evidence-driven, safe modernization.

At a Glance
Four Foundational Components

• VEM – Value Extraction Method
• KEA – Knowledge Extraction & Assembly
• TCAP – Transformation Control & Assurance Protocol
• Roles – Maker / Checker / Seer / Buyer

Together, these components power the TRANT lifecycle and make transformation safely achievable.

The Four Components

Explore each component to understand how Trantiate ensures transformation safety, clarity, evidence, and governance.

Component
VEM

Value Extraction Method: systematically extract features, functions, behaviors, workflows, integrations, and dependencies from legacy systems — even when documentation is missing.

Component
KEA

Knowledge Extraction & Assembly: transform scattered, unstructured knowledge into structured documentation, decision logs, evidence packages, and transformation artifacts.

Component
TCAP

Transformation Control & Assurance Protocol: govern execution using readiness criteria, checkpoints, verification steps, and evidence capture. Keeps change safe and auditable.

Component
Roles

Maker / Checker / Seer / Buyer: a role ecosystem that ensures outputs are built, validated, assured, and accepted by the right minds at the right time.
