Business Architecture provides context and understanding for defining and delivering organizational strategy. This course builds both conceptual and practical knowledge of the tools and techniques used in business architecture.

This course provides an overview of key Business Architecture definitions, concepts and practices with a focus on value delivery using key business architecture techniques. To achieve business alignment, we must first:

  • Understand the factors that motivate the business
  • Extract and drive additional detail into elements of the business capabilities
  • Clearly articulate the Ends – purpose that the business intends to achieve
  • Clearly articulate the Means – things that the business will employ to achieve those Ends

The business model enables this alignment and quickly becomes the foundation for connecting solutions, indeed the entire operating model, to the business intent.  Using a case study, we will learn a quick and popular method for creating a business model and simultaneously, how to facilitate others through the process.

We will also begin to discover, define, and develop the capability map for an organization through the application of a case study.  The Strategy Map will be formed in the context of business capability assessment, measurement, and performance.  Future state business modeling will be performed using a case study and the skills and tools class participants have mastered.

This course is helpful for anyone seeking a better understanding of the role of business architect and business architecture, those leaders tasked with bringing the practice into their organizations and using it to achieve real business results.  It’s also for executives who are transforming their business to meet customer demands and compete in a fast-paced environment.
