William Ulrich
Welcome!
Based on the demand for information surrounding Business Architecture and the exciting growth we've seen over the past year (over 10,000 members!), we are thrilled to announce the launch of our newest Peer to Peer Exchange:
BusinessArchitectureInstitute.org
Welcome to the temporary home page - please start taking advantage of the available content right away - and bear with us while we bring the site up to full functionality over the coming months.
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."
Business Architecture provides multidimensional views of business capabilities, governance structures, partners, semantics, projects, value chains, processes and rules. Business architecture also serves as the basis for IT architecture alignment.
Through Articles, Presentations and Round Tables from thought leaders and practitioners we will cover these topics and much more:
- Business Architecture Requirements and Strategies
- Business Architecture Creation, Management & Visualization
- Role of Business Architecture in Planning & Change Management
- Governance Structure Alignment
- Business Architecture / IT Architecture Alignment
- Deployment Strategies & the Center of Excellence

Presented by: RALPH WHITTLE, Co-Author of Enterprise Business Architecture: The Formal Link between Strategy and Results
Duration: 1 day
Course Type: Elective Course
Course Description:
The Business Architecture Integration, Innovation and Case Study Model Review class describes an approach and method for building an architecture of the business. It explains how to build and integrate your core cross-functional processes, sometimes called value streams, with all the architectures of the enterprise and the corporate strategy. It formally captures your intellectual capital in an “architectural type” blueprint or model of the business that is available for strategic and tactical analysis. Consequently, the business and IT teams can work in harmony with the insight gleaned from the Business Architecture to create higher profits, superior customer service and a competitive advantage for their enterprise.
