OBASHI was born from a common problem Reality Wish • Communicationgap identified • No single document linked their data, information, business process and IT assets • The Business and the IT department were unable to collaborate effectively • See the big picture • Increase understanding of the relationships between its data/information, assets and resources in a business context • Understand the cost and value of the assets and people that supported its information and data flows
...which is even more prevalent today. Data flow & information flow is the life blood of every modern business Most business activity is underpinned by and can be related to single or multiple data flows Over 90% of cash is electronic It makes sense to understand, model, document, engineer, analyse and re-engineer data flows... and follow a traditional engineering approach to mapping information
