Business and Enterprise Architecture

Questions for business leaders

As a business manager, we got some questions for you:

  • How frequent your company does or updates the strategic plan? Each year? Every three or five years?
  • How often do you change are your company’s technology to cope with business strategy changes?
  • Do you really consider I.T. as a key tool to develop your business strategy? or how often you say “these I.T. guys are late as usual”.

Every day, business leaders complain on the real business value of I.T.  Common complains relate to little or no I.T.-Business alignment.

Enter Enterprise Architecture

Enterprise Archictecture (EA) is a process that drives continous business an technology alignment in addition to providing an overall plan for designing, implementing and maintaining the underlying infrastructure to support information sharing and resource optimization.

Benefits

Implementing an Enterprise architecture (EA) program within the organization influences the bottom line in many ways:

Business and I.T. Alignment

Your company ensures that I.T. priorities are fully articulated with business priorities.

Silos are torn down

Having an EA program, contributes to avoid organizational silos in which each area develops and implements exclusive solutions to specific concerns, with little or no coordination between them.

A Clear Roadmap

With an EA program, the road ahead for the I.T. area is cleared. No more I.T. miopia; your company will have a blueprint to solve issues and a plan to implement real value solutions to its clients.

Business Undertanding of I.T.

An EA program also helps top management to understand technology. As the digital transformation is a must; no matter what industry are you, I.T. is your business now.
