Enterprise Architecture
Business capabilities, application portfolios, data, integration, platforms, cloud, security, standards, roadmaps, and investment decisions.
The executive problem
Architecture becomes a library of diagrams instead of a system for making decisions. Complexity grows while executives lose visibility.
Harold’s point of view
Architecture should help leaders see the enterprise as a system: how capabilities, applications, data, security, and investment interact.
Working method
- Map business capabilities to applications, data, and platforms.
- Expose fragmentation, duplication, and constraint.
- Design a future state that can actually be sequenced.
- Use architecture to support investment and operating-model decisions.
Architecture as an executive decision system
Artifacts existed and still could not support investment choices. Harold connected capabilities, applications, data, and security into a model leaders could use to sequence modernization.
