3. Business Agility : Definitions Business agility is the ability of a business to adapt rapidly and cost efficiently in response to changes in the business environment. Business agility can be maintained by adapting goods and services to meet customer demands, adjusting to the changes in a business environment and taking advantage of human resources. "On the Measurement of Enterprise Agility". Journal of Intelligent and Robotic Systems 33 (3): 329–342. DOI:10.1023/A:1015096909316 Nikos C. Tsourveloudi, Kimon P. Valavanis (2002)DOI10.1023/A:1015096909316

4. Business Agility : Needs ! The alignment of organisations with the changing needs of their customer requires: – Communicating key requirements, principles and models of the futur state of the enterprise (vision, strategies, …) in order to ensure a coherent evolution, – Propagation of the changes to ensure a coherent reactivity Such an alignment necessitates an architecture framework that includes : – process, users, information and technology, but also their internal and external relationships with their environment 4

5. What methodologies, architectures and specification languages to ensure a business agility ? How to use them to capitalize on the business knowledge and align IT with the changing strategies ?

6. Enterprise Architectures : Goals and Roles ! Enterprise Architecture is usualy done to identify gaps between current and target architecture state of an organisation. Enterprise Architecture enables effective execution of the enterprise strategy to achieve change of an organization ! It provides roadmap to achieve goals and deliver objectives to guide current and futur projects of the organisation. 6 What sources to provide inputs data for the Governance Aspects of an EA ?

10. TOGAF ® 9 / SOA Initial Content MetaModel Elements 10 Q : So, how to link such concepts to increase business agility ? A : Need a language that ensures coherence, traceability, completeness ! From the Open Group’s TOGAF ®9.1 Specifications

11. ArchiMate 2.0 adds value to TOGAF 9.1 Artifacts bringing consistency, traceability, completeness ! 11 From the Open Group’s TOGAF ®9.1 Specifications

12. What is ArchiMate 2.0 ? Why use ArchiMate 2.0 ? – ArchiMate is a modeling language for describing enterprise architectures – Broader scope than UML (essentially designed for software engineering) – Supports EA frameworks like TOGAF 9 & Zachman – ArchiMate 2.0 adds valueto TOGAF 9.1 by bringing consistency, traceability, completeness ! – ArchiMate viewpoints are more detailed than TOGAF’s architecture artifacts – TOGAF does not provide a specification language for descriptions and examples

17. In the Preliminary Phase of TOGAF 9 : We start by modeling Baseline Architecture Capabilities of the WebSale Company

18. In the Preliminary Phase : Drivers, Assessments and Initial Goals of the EA may be modeled using the ‘Stakeholder Viewpoint’ 18 Business Drivers and Goals Principles, initial Requirements, …

19. In the Architecture Vision (Phase A) : Requirements can be discovered by decomposing Goals using the ‘Goal Realization’ and ‘Motivation ‘Viewpoints (1/2) 19

20. In the Architecture Vision (Phase A) : Business Functions are discovered by applying the ‘Goal Realization’ and ‘Motivation ‘Viewpoints (2/2) 20 How to better structure Capabilities to adapt them to changing requirements and align SOA components ?

21. In the Business Architecture Phase (Phase B) : Business Capabilities can be structured to be easily adapted to changes and align SOA 21 «BUSINESS CAPABILITY ORCHESTRATOR » How to describe process activities and guide SOA service level specifications on the basis of such a Capability Configuration ?

22. On the basis of the previous capability structure, requirements are assigned to ‘Service Points’ that are controled by the Capability Orchestrator 22 Service points allow capabilities to interact with their environment (cf. Phase G - Implementation Governance slide) « CAPABILITY ORCHESTRATOR »

23. Changes may be expressed using {constraints} applied to Business Capabilities Process Actions are to be reconfigured by considering new contraints to apply The Orchestration of Service Points activities may be precisely described using UML or BPMN Process Descriptions 23 Actions of the orchestrator service « makes call » to its service point behaviors to realize the « Register Visitor » Capability «BUSINESS CAPABILITY ORCHESTRATOR »

28. In Phase E : The Roadmap and underlying capabilities for Transition and Target Architectures are consolidated from phases B,C,D 28 Consolidating architecture descriptions Definition of the Roadmap Identifying opportunities for re-use and potential solution components

29. 29 Deliverables and Work Package Actions are determined for the Transition Architecture (1/2) Consolidating architecture descriptions Definition of the Roadmap Identifying opportunities for re-use and potential solution components

30. Deliverables and Work Package Actions are finally determined for the Target Architecture (2/2) 30 How to use these deliverables to discover Organizational and IT Projects ? Traceability links that are automatically displayed for the selected deliverable are useful for Consolidating architecture descriptions

31. Phase F : Planning Implementation Projects 31 How to guide and align Projects by Architectural Constraints on the basis of Business Capabilities ?

32. 32 Phase G – IMPLEMENTATION GOVERNANCE  In Phases B and C : We have seen how to structure Business Capabilities to establish the bridge toward SOA and assigned functional service expectations to related service points  In Phase G : We transform them into SOA Architectural Backbone elements (components, ports with required and provided interfaces) Let’s apply this step on our case study… 32

33. USE CASE (UC) Service/Request Point (UC Comp) BUSINESS CAPABILITY Internal Structures of Business Capabilities are kept « as is » to their previous descriptions in Phases A,B and C. Now, how to fill out Use Case and Service behaviors of these components ? «BUSINESS CAPABILITY ORCHESTRATOR » « B.C.O » « BUSINESS CAPABILITY ORCHESTRATOR » In Phase G : The Architectural Backbone of the system may be detailed on the basis of previous specifications of the ‘Capabilities’ Service/Request Point (SRV Comp) 33

36. Conclusion The alignment of organisations with the changing needs of their customer requires: – Communicating key requirements, principles and models of the futur state of the enterprise (vision, strategies, principles, …) in order to ensure a coherent evolution, – Propagation of the changes to ensure a coherent reactivity until SOA Components Sparx EA ensures this alignment supporting the Business Motivation Model (BMM), Balanced Score Cards, Strategy Map, TOGAF 9, ArchiMate 2.0 and SoaML It also permits organizations to capitalize on their business knowledge by the means of Business Capabilities Complementary information to this presentation about the Agile Enterprise Modeling, IT and System Specifications can be found on our website : www.goobiz.comwww.goobiz.com 36
