The critical challenge to C-level is how to create a business outcome-driven
enterprise using digitalization when the time to market goes to zero. It implies several
significant features that must be demonstrated by modern enterprises which include -
innovation-driven, agile and cost-effective characteristics. Enterprises launch and
manage several strategic initiatives, and usually, they are considered in isolation and
without alignment with other ones. As a result, many strategic initiatives fail because
of unidentified dependencies among other initiatives. Also, short term gains are more
visible in comparison with results of long-term strategic initiatives.
Introducing enterprise architecture practice allows performing a set of
activities to understand prospect organization context and visualize its architecture on
the abstract level to provide a single source regarding the enterprise as a holistic
system. In other words, enterprise architecture provides a clear and comprehensive
view of an entity via several views: from top to bottom – strategic to technology, from
left to right – current (as-is) state toward future (to-be) state. The focus is on
improving planning, decision-making and solution implementation to achieve
objectives like a strategic advantage, alignment, agility, efficiency, and value. |
