Best Practices Keynote: Cracking the Code of Business Architecture - Turning Theory to Practice

As business architecture becomes more mainstream, it ignites enthusiasm in some and skepticism in others. Some organizations see it as a “must have” while others are reluctant to embrace it.

In this session you will gain insight into a year-long journey at Allstate Insurance Company from establishing a practical business architecture delivery framework to actually applying that framework in the “real world.” You will learn what worked well from the beginning, what was improved along the way, and what the plans are to further evolve the framework. You will walk away with a host of practical and proven ideas for developing a business architecture that is valued by both business and IT.

Case Study: Using Business Architecture to Address Major Horizontal Initiatives

Horizontal initiatives have become increasingly common in major enterprises. Consider the challenge of coordinating new product and service rollouts, synchronizing customer support functions, ensuring transparency of transactions as they cross enterprise silos and the many other projects that must cross business units or even divisions. Business architecture teams are well positioned to address these challenges by allowing management to visualize the impacts and opportunities across business units, projects, partners, business capabilities and related IT assets. This discussion will discuss how business architecture can provide management with insights into the difficult challenges and solutions that arise when major projects cross horizontal boundaries of the enterprise.
