  • Business Architecture: Setting the Record Straight
    BUSINESS ARCHITECTURE: SETTING THE RECORD STRAIGHT By William Ulrich and Whynde Kuehn This is a Reprint of Chapter 2, Part 1, of Business and Dynamic Change: The Arrival of Business Architecture, Published by Future Strategies, Inc. © 2015, but revised January 2019 http://BusinessandDynamicChange.com COPYRIGHT © 2019 BUSINESS ARCHITECTURE ASSOCIATES 1 BUSINESS ARCHITECTURE: SETTING THE RECORD STRAIGHT BUSINESS ARCHITECTURE: SETTING THE RECORD STRAIGHT William Ulrich, TSG, Inc. and BAA, Inc., USA Whynde Kuehn, S2E Transformation Inc. and BAA, Inc., USA An Introduction to Business Architecture Business architecture is drawing significant interest from a wide variety of organizations worldwide. Yet business architecture is often misperceived as to its uses, origins, and value proposition. These misperceptions are the biggest barrier to adoption, because it prevents businesses in many cases from getting a business architecture effort off the ground, and undercuts sponsorship and business engagement. Business architecture is not a buzzword or a quick fix solution for a broken process, a computer system, or a single project or business unit. It is a holistic discipline that is most effective when applied across business units, practices, disciplines, and stakeholders. The discussion that follows lays out a number of fundamental business archi- tecture concepts. This includes an overview, beneficiaries, common myths, core and extended perspectives, interdisciplinary alignment, governance, get- ting started, and a vision for the future. Business Architecture: What Is It? Formally defined, business architecture represents holistic, multidimensional business views of: capabilities, end-to-end value delivery, information, and or- ganizational structure; and the relationships among these business views and strategies, products, policies, initiatives, and stakeholders.2.(1) It is an ab- stract set of standardized perspectives that represent a given business ecosys- tem.

  • Linking Business Models with Business Architecture to Drive Innovation
    Linking Business Models with Business Architecture to Drive Innovation Linking Business Models with Business Architecture to Drive Innovation A Business Architecture Guild Whitepaper Principal Co-Authors: Steve DuPont, Karen Erwin, Bryan Lail, Stephen Marshall Reviewers: Remco Blom, Frank Fons, William Ulrich, Wilton Wratten, Carl Zuhl August 2015 1 Copyright ©2015 Business Architecture Guild Linking Business Models with Business Architecture to Drive Innovation Executive Summary A business model describes the rationale of how an organization creates, delivers, and captures value.1 Organizations are expanding their innovation focus from products and processes to business models in order to remain competitive in the face of shrinking product lifecycles and growing market uncertainties. They are increasingly embracing the business model concept in strategic planning, accompanied by a greater focus on customers and corresponding value propositions. In a parallel development, organizations are using business architecture to provide increased business transparency and maximize the likelihood of an effective and successful deployment of strategy. Business architecture is defined as “a blueprint of the enterprise that provides a common understanding of the organization and is used to align strategic objectives and tactical demands.”2 Despite the natural progression from business models (as an expression of business strategy) to business architecture (as the actionable blueprint for that strategy), these two concepts have evolved separately. To date, limited consideration has been given as to how they relate to each other. This white paper aims to address that gap, by demonstrating that the two approaches not only relate to each other but also work well together to effect change. We further expand on this synergy with a practical case study.

  • Cynefin, Statistics and Decision Analysis
    Cynefin, Statistics and Decision Analysis Simon French Manchester Business School University of Manchester Manchester, M15 6PB [email protected] April 2011 Abstract David Snowden‟s Cynefin framework, introduced to articulate discussions of sense-making, knowledge management and organisational learning, also has much to offer discussion of statistical inference and decision analysis. In this paper, I explore its value particularly in its ability to help recognise which analytic and modelling methodologies are most likely to offer appropriate support in a given context. I also use the framework to offer a further perspective on the relationship between scenario thinking and decision analysis in supporting decision makers. Keywords: Cynefin; Bayesian statistics; decision analysis; decision support systems; knowledge management; scenarios; scientific induction; sense-making; statistical inference. 1 Introduction Several years back David Snowden visited Manchester Business School and gave a seminar on knowledge management. At this he described his conceptual framework, Cynefin, which, among other things, offers a categorisation of decision contexts (Snowden 2002). At first I thought this said little if anything more than many other ways of categorising decisions, such as the strategy pyramid stemming from Simon (1960) and beyond Simon back to the prehistory of military theory: viz. strategic, tactical and operational (see Figure 2 below). However, a colleague, Carmen Niculae, had more insight and working with her and others, I have since come to realise Cynefin‟s power to articulate discussions of inference and decision making. In the following, I want to explore the ideas underlying Cynefin and their import for thinking about statistics and decision analysis. There is nothing dramatic in anything I shall say.

  • The Process Architect: the Smart Role in Business Process Management
    Redpaper Roland Peisl The Process Architect: The Smart Role in Business Process Management This IBM® Redpaper™ publication describes the concept of business process management (BPM) and specifically focuses on the role of the process architect within BPM. This paper covers in detail how to design business processes and how to enhance those processes for automated business process execution on a BPM platform. It addresses the requirements to successfully drive BPM programs in terms of what process knowledge, methodology, and technology needs to exist or be developed within an organization. Within the context of this paper, the process architect is defined as having the responsibility to model, analyze, deploy, monitor, and continuously improve business processes. This paper defines the role of the process architect as the driver of creating and improving processes and as a key bridge between business and process focused technology. This paper is intended for anyone who is involved in creating and improving BPM within an organization. © Copyright IBM Corp. 2009, 2012. All rights reserved. ibm.com/redbooks 1 Introduction Today, organizations that are facing aggressive market challenges share focus. To be more agile and to react faster to market changes, they must understand business processes better and in more detail. Business processes represent the organization’s key assets. The way a company invents, provides, and controls its core products and services depends on its core business processes. How well these processes can be managed and adapted to market changes is critical and more important than ever. Knowing business processes in detail requires further investigation. People from lines of businesses and from IT must understand the details of their business or IT capabilities.

Churchill Sq. 1938/4, 130 67 Prague 3 - Žižkov, Czech Republic [email protected], [email protected] Abstract. Growing complexity of the enterprise ecosystem along with the existence of legacy approaches in the organization can result in a number of challenges when maintaining the solid baseline of its information assets. The digital industry has, over past two decades, passed through rapid evolution triggered both by availability of new technologies, and business as well as operating and funding models. These enablers have direct impact on the way that organizations design and execute their business processes in order to maintain the alignment between their capabilities and targets. This trend implies that enterprises and organizations need to remain flexible by maintaining the alignment of their business and their infrastructure in a dynamically changing and integrated ecosystem. It has been widely recognized that the enterprise architecture as well as the process driven approaches provide tools used by organizations to explain how business, resources and other elements within the organization are related to each other. This article discusses the role, and associated value, that the enterprise architecture and process driven approach have when describing what constitutes the enterprise.
