If so, there is a good chance you lack a knowledgebase or business blueprint for planning and deploying priority business initiatives. Conversely, organizations that do have such a blueprint, along with a mapping between their business architecture and IT architecture, are in a better position to deliver priority, horizontal business initiatives. Consider the last time you sought to deploy a customer consolidation, cost reduction, new product launch, merger or similar cross-functional initiative. Research almost always had to be gathered from scratch and critical impacts were commonly overlooked. This should not be the norm. The business blueprint – which is the result of a business architecture program, coupled with a business architecture / IT architecture alignment strategy, serves as the foundation for planning and deploying a wide variety of critical initiatives. This requires a formal visualization of the business architecture and IT architecture along with the ability to map these two views of the organization. This training course walks attendees through the process of creating the business architecture blueprint and IT architecture blueprint, approaches for mapping the business architecture and IT architecture, and alignment strategies as appropriate to a variety of business scenarios.
