Corso, a premier IBM business partner, addresses gaps in enterprise architecture and strategic planning through agile tools and expert consulting. The document outlines processes involved in enterprise architecture modeling, including workspaces, business motivations, timelines, costing, and the transition between architectural blueprints. It also introduces various tools and methodologies for effective planning and implementation within architecture projects.

from ideas to delivery
• A
container
of
EA
modeling
ar9facts
– Spans
across
Defini9ons,
Diagrams,
Symbols
etc.
(SA
terminology)
– Spans
across
domains
(Business
Modeling,
Strategy
Mapping,
Network
Diagrams,
Organiza9on
charts
etc.)
• The
workspace
is
isolated
for
the
purpose
of
a
dedicated
project,
program
etc.
– Changes
done
in
this
workspace
will
not
affect
the
master
blueprint
– Once
approved,
changes
can
be
rolled
up
into
the
master
blueprint
• A
workspace
can
be
“baselined”
–
A
frozen
snapshot
in
9me
of
the
en9re
architecture
• New
workspaces
can
be
created
from
a
“baselined”
workspace
– Spawn
a
new
project
with
pre
populated
content
• Changes
in
Workspaces
can
be
associated
with
tasks
or
change
request
in
a
change
tracking
system

Business
Mo9va9on
• Goals,
Drivers
and

can
be
modeled
• Requirements
can
be
at
varying
levels
• Requirements
can
be
mapped
from
specific
requirements

such
as

Work
Packages
• Work
packages
represent
discreet
pieces
of
work
with
a
given
start
and
end
9me
• Work
packages
can
be
at
various
levels
– Programs
– Projects
– Tasks
• Work
packages
have
milestones,
as
do
CapabiliIes,
Processes,
OrganizaIons,
ApplicaIons,
Technologies,
etc!

Timelines
• A
9meline
represents
a
roadmapped
ar9fact,
at
any
given
moment
in
9me
• Milestones
are
depicted
as
pies
in
9me
order
horizontally
along
the
9meline
axis
• Segments
of
the
pie
depict
domain
values
and
can
be
set
according
to
EA
usage
scenarios
– E.g.
Lines
of
Business
and
their
status
