that are causing them to5

MISTAKE 1Ignoring the miscommunication between IT and business people.66% of IT projects fail due to miscommunication, costing businesses in the US a yearly loss of US$ 30 billion. # Forrester Research

MISTAKE 2Implementing IT projects as standalone systems.Many companies implement IT projects as separate islands (silo) without complementing each other as a whole, thus increasing complexity and maintenance costs.

80% of IT budgets are spent on maintenance only.

# Forrester Research

MISTAKE 3Limiting IT to just an automation role.Some companies assume IT is useful only to digitise existing business processes, when IT can help create much more business value.

MISTAKE 4Designing IT systems without using standardised IT Architecture blueprints.Would you stay in a house that wasn’t built according to approved architectural standards?

60-70% of Enterprise IT Architecture projects failed in 2010.

# Gartner Research

MISTAKE 5Treating IT projects as an expense, instead of as an investment with returns.Would you want to reduce the budget of an IT department that helps generate profit?

Where do you

stand?

MISTAKE 1Business and IT speak the same language.

MISTAKE 2IT systems exist on a standardised platform - greatly reducing complexity and costs.

MISTAKE 3In addition to automation, IT delivers new business capabilities.

MISTAKE 4A shared vision using standardised Enterprise Architecture blueprints ensure that IT projects always meet business requirements and expectations.

MISTAKE 5All IT projects deliver measurable ROI and business values.

Are you a good chef?Business & IT Need To Work Together

♦ Long lead time to delivery with little business impact during the interim

♦ Solution likely not well aligned with business needs

♦ Requires unrealistically fast IT response to deliver business value

♦ Results in unsupportable "spaghetti" IT systems and inefficient IT Architecture

The ArchiMate and TOGAF

• The evolution of the ArchiMate language is closely linked to the development of the TOGAF standard.

• As a consequence, the ArchiMate standard does not provide its own set of defined terms, but rather follows those provided by the TOGAF standard.

The Role of ArchiMate as an EA Language

• The ArchiMate modeling language has been developed to provide a uniform representation for diagrams that describe Enterprise Architectures.

• It offers an integrated architectural approach that describes and visualizes the different architecture domains and their underlying relations and dependencies.

The ArchiMate Language is Lightweight and Scalable

• The ArchiMate language is lightweight and scalable in several respects:– Its architecture framework is simple and yet

comprehensive enough to provide a good structuring mechanism.

– It incorporates the concepts of the “service orientation” paradigm.

– It represents enterprise architectures as they change over time.

The ArchiMate and TOGAF Specification

• The TOGAF standard is a method and framework

• It includes the following domains:– Business Architecture– Information Systems

Architectures Data Applications

– Technology Architecture

• The ArchiMate specification is a language

• It includes the following layers:– Business– Application– Technology

Note: In the ArchiMate language, the data elements are embodied in the appropriate layers.
