Searching for the Business Value of Enterprise Architecture The fact that the Open Group, the OMG and the Business Architecture Guild® among others are working more and more together is positively impacting the reconciliation of both the Enterprise Architecture and Business Architecture practices allowing enterprise architects and business architects to work in better harmony to the advantage of their organizations. As for the Open Group, it has worked recently with the Business Architecture Guild® to deliver its own TOGAF® Capability and Value Stream Guides. The Object Management Group (“OMG”) and the Business Architecture Guild® are currently working hard to establish a formal metamodel to enable BIZBOK® based tool automation. To succeed, an organization and its CIO(s) need to focus more resources in building and communicating Business Architecture change maps that will involve not just enterprise architects, but also business executives, business architects and obviously, the CIO(s). Rarely do EA initiatives start with Business Architecture as it should. Business Architecture, one of the four foundational domains of EA, is too often neglected and even dismissed all together in budget constraints. Yet, their digital transformation initiatives are still too often planned and deployed without involving the business side of their organization. EA is trying more and more to be involved with the digital transformation of their organization. Fortunately, Enterprise Architecture (“EA”) is not always only about enterprise and IT documentation anymore.
