1. Aligning Business Process Architecture and Enterprise Architecture: A Model Driven - Service Oriented Approach Chris Capadouca Business Solutions Architect

2. Adaptive Business Process Management Model and simulate cross functional business processes Enable & integrate human and system based business process Manage and improve the processes using process metrics Monitor end-to-end business processes in real-time Repositories Model Monitor Enable Manage Narrow the business-IS Gap Process visibility and exception based interaction Adaptability Qualitative & Quantitative Feedback Reduction in Cycle Time

3. Process B Process A System CSystem B What are the Challenges? Challenge Enable visibility to cross functional KPIs, business events, and process states Challenge Enable end-to-end monitoring and correlation Structure around cross functional ownership System A Challenge Evolve from siloed functional design and build to a cross functional process focus approach Challenge Enable workflow to cross system boundaries rather than be bound to them Process A Process B Monitor Enable Manage Model

4. Historical Perspective Lack of Alignment IT centric Siloed initiatives Lack Cross-functional process owners Enterprise Optimization focus is in the wrong place We get lost in the details

5. What should the future look like? Enterprise Architecture is about Business Transformation Process Modeling is a component of Enterprise Architecture Cross-functional optimization is the focus Cross-functional process ownership is obvious and rewarded

6. What should the future look like? Strategic Visioning “involves defining the context, identifying strategic drivers, developing a high level business model, establishing principles for the new work system, and packaging for commitment and action.” “As part of this visioning exercise, key questions for work reengineering need to be explored: What is your business value network? What are the key functions (logical service units) that are closest to delivering value to the customer?” “Any functional component or service unit can be decomposed into a number of interrelated processes and work activities.” “Each logical service unit can be modeled to determine the most appropriate business processes and related manual and automated work activities” Excerpts from Paradigm Shift: The New Promise of Information Technology, by Art Caston and Don Tapscott, McGraw-Hill 1993

7. Why spend the time? Why align Business, IT and Process Architecture? Fact: Mrs. Winchester never had a master set of blueprints, but did sketch out individual rooms on paper and even tablecloths! Its about the integrated plan ……..just ask Sarah Winchester

8. How do we get there? Stop viewing Enterprise Architecture as an IT thing! Create a high level reference framework Identify & define what we do and the services we provide Identify & define how we realize the business services Identify & define how we provide services and who owns them Publish the plan!

9. What are the Enablers? Business Buy-in and ownership Model Driven Architecture –Describes the enterprise as a set of related models Enterprise Service Architecture –The business services that need to exist –The services they provide –The capabilities that realize them –It’s not just about the technology Event Driven Architecture –Describes the enterprise interactions in terms of related events that trigger services Yes, these are complementary!

14. Enterprise Services Architecture Business Perspective What Services need to exist? What information do we need? What Capabilities provide Services? What Processes realize a Service? Implementation Perspective What is the process flow? What is the information flow? What composite application functionality realizes as process? An approach for designing and implementing capabilities that realize and leverage services, that allows a tight correlation between the business model and the physical implementation
