This model is part of my toolbox for working with capability architectures. The Capability Inventory I know that there is certain ways of naming a capability and also that there are other principles that people and I promote that you should adhere to when designing your capability map. Here I’ve taken some liberties in regards to those […]

This model is part of my toolbox for working with business architectures. The Inventory Model The important thing to remember is to be agile minded in use of tools like this. So, when I say extendable I mean that this is definitely not all things that could or should be in the inventory. Reconfigure it in […]

Time to get back on the toolsets trail… First, though, I’ll let Phil Beauvoir have his own rant about the current state of supposed ‘EA-toolsets’ – as per a series of Tweets he pushed out a few days ago: Better…

Okay, I’ll admit to a certain amount of frustration here… Yes, I’ve been talking a lot about toolsets for enterprise-architecture and the like, the ‘Why’ for a new type of toolset, the workflows within which such toolsets would appear and…
