Executive Summary

Unrelenting pressures of:

– cost, quality and access to information through every channel, to drive

higher operating efficiencies, fuel business growth and enhance customer

value, are challenging Strategic Thought Leadership.

Recognition that current complexity chokes innovation, increases cost, threatens margins, and stifles market responsiveness.

IT is critical (as a catalyst and enabler) to transforming and meeting the evolving business requirements, strategy, planning and capabilities.

Today‟s IT deficit leaves companies unresponsive to the market. A new approach is required to transform the business model and business platform to one that enables business growth, reduces cost and facilitates market responsiveness.

Introduction

Why Enterprise Architecture? The journey began years ago with the construction of the Enterprise Architecture (EA) practice. The EA practice is the management of architecture for the enterprise and is comprised of views and disciplines. The three views: Technical, Information, & Business. EA used the framework to increase standardization by focusing on the Technology facet. The same framework was used for the creation of the Information facet. While substantial achievements were realized with the technology and Information facets, the greatest opportunity to impact cost and complexity is with a focus on the Business facet.

Why Business Capabilities? Capabilities are the functions or disciplines that deliver demonstrable value to the enterprise. They represent the abilities, talents or capacities of an enterprise. Capabilities provide the connective tissue among strategy, processes, and resources.
