Summary

I know that this might be a cultural issue, but I don't see a lot of planning when it comes to projects anymore. Everything is "Agile" and I don't see that things are seen through that often.Which is bad, because one of the promises of EA (and BPM) is that someone understands how things are wired up and what to change, so that you accomplish your objective - which should always be business-driven FWIW.From my perspective this is a step back in the maturity of the discipline of Enterprise Architecture. And given the fact that the maturity was never high to start with, this is not a good development.To help a bit in this situation J-M and I talk about EA use cases to give you some direction what you can do when you decide that this is a capability that you want to implement in your organization. In this episode of the What's Your Baseline Podcast we talk about: Short (-ish) review of Episode 70 "BPM Use Cases" Recap of Episode 70 to set the context App/IT portfolio mgmt / rationalization Roadmapping Project portfolio mgmt / rationalization (looking at capabilities) Mergers & Acquisitions Operational resilience and disaster recovery Strategy Roles of architects Please reach out to us by either sending an email to [email protected] or leaving us a voice message by clicking here.
