Abstract

A well-presented business architecture will provide a holistic view of the enterprise. This will best enable management to see the critical structures and how they work together to determine what improvements can be made and what risks may exist. This chapter will show how the idea of architectural principles can be used to guide the development of an architectural reference model which can then be used by the planning staff to develop and present the organisational analysis in the form of architectural blueprint of the organisation. An architectural blueprint of the organisation would go a long way to ensuring that all the staff are on the same page by including the strategic plan and risk assessment plan within the business architecture; then it would ensure the development of the organisation would be as effective as possible. TOGAF provide a very detailed definition of ‘Enterprise Architecture' which covers all the topics from the Strategic Plan, Business Architecture to the IT System, but the TOGAF focus is very much on requirements to build the IT system. This book is aimed at the business manager developing the business architecture for organisational improvement, with IT there only as another value adding activity.
