Critical Business Challenges/Pain Organization is not aligned with vision/mission/KPI. Organizational structure or capabilities do not match with the technology we acquire. Companies have difficulty understanding the impact of a change. After the restructuring either the business processes do not work or technology fails. Operational/business processes are inefficient. Companies procure system that do not integrate.

Enterprise Architecture Helps • Enterprise Architecture is the description of the current and/or future structure and behavior of an organization's processes, information systems, personnel and organizational sub-units, aligned with the organization's core goals and strategic direction. • The primary purpose of creating an Enterprise Architecture is to ensure that business strategy and IT investments are aligned. As such, enterprise architecture allows traceabilityfrom the business strategy down to the underlying technology. • Enterprise Architecture relates more broadly to the practice of business optimization in that it addresses business architecture, performance management, organizational structure and process architecture as well.

Define the Enterprise Strategy, goals and Objectives : What to do, and how to do it? Business Processes : support the strategy, Operational organization The Applications support the Business, implement the business functions in the IT systems The Information is key for the organization : It is the fuel that drives the architecture • Infrastructure that supports the IS: • Technical components: servers, networks, etc. • Technology: platforms, etc. Enterprise Architecture Strategy Business Métier Applications & Systems Information & Data Network & Infrastructure

Customer – Strategy Map • This diagram shows the mapping of the Strategic Objectives along the 4 BSC perspectives, adhering to the Balanced Scorecard principles. • Objective “Automate Core Processes” is chosen for further elaboration
Objective – Automate Core Processes • This page shows tabulated information about the strategic objective. It provides a linkage between Strategic and Operational components as observed through the sub reports Related Business Flows and Initiatives. • The business flow “Declare to Collect/Refund” is chosen as a process that realizes the objective
Business Flow : Declare to Collect/Refund • The Business Flow realizes the Strategic Objective through the execution of a set of Core and Non Core Business Processes. This graphical representation shows the interaction between these processes. • The business process “Validate Declaration” is chosen for further elaboration
Process – Validate Declaration • The Business Process is modeled using BPMN, graphically models business events, activities, data objects, locations, and executors in a logical sequence. • The activity “Register Declaration” is chosen for further elaboration
Activity – Register Declaration • Activity attributes include Inputs, & Outputs (in terms of Data Objects), Volumes, Actors, Location, KPIs, Business Rules, Tasks, and supporting Use Cases that capture functional requirements for automating that activity in UML format. • The use case “Submit Declaration” is chosen for further elaboration
Use Case Model – Submit Declaration • - Use Case Diagram modeled in UML showing the interactions between Actors and Use Cases • The use case “Submit Declaration” is chosen for further elaboration
Use Case Details – Submit Declaration • This Use Case represents a functional requirement captured as part of an SDLC project to build an application supporting the modeled Business Flows and Processes. • A screen shot of the user interface developed to automate the selected activity will be shown in the next slide
User Interface Screen Shot • The user interface was developed based on the use case specifications detailing the screen functionalities needed
