The Intent of Enterprise Architecture:

• Enterprise Architecture is about planning and implementing business transformation

• As architects, we are a service provider that helps business organizations become more effective and efficient.

• Our service is to help business organizations to better understand who they are serving, what they are delivering, how they are delivering it, and how to become more efficient and effective.

The Methodology for Business Transformation (MBT) is designed to answer some of today’s more challenging business questions.

Mission Performance• What are the business changes I really need to have? • Where can we achieve dramatic improvements in performance and how do I

know I’ve achieved them? • Where are the opportunities for and risks for program collaboration, data

sharing, and shared business processes?

Investment Performance• Where do we spend program funds?• Do our investments support the business needs?

HR Performance• What is the target level of resources I need to have in place, and where? • How can I move back office resources into mission functions?

IT Performance• Where do I have redundant buying? • Where am I over/under invested? How do I know? • What metrics do I need?

The Value of the Methodology for Business Transformation

2. Defined coordination between the architects, Business Organizations, CPIC, Contracts, and Oversight Teams.

3. Full business transformation: organization capital, human capital, information capital.

4. Coordinated program of change rather than individual projects.

5. Outputs from analysis through implementation can be centrally coordinated in your enterprise architecture repository.
