The document is an introduction to the BIZBOK® Guide, which provides a framework and best practices for business architecture. It defines business architecture as a blueprint that provides a common understanding of an organization used to align strategic objectives and tactical demands. The guide represents various business concepts, disciplines, and best practices in an overall framework. It establishes standards for building, deploying, and leveraging business architecture. Business architecture represents real-world aspects of a business and how they interact to help executives answer questions about the business. Blueprints are abstract representations of the business that allow different viewpoints to be visualized.
In this session we are going to consider some lessons that Business Architecture practitioners might learn from Lean. Business Architecture has traditionally delivered ivory tower models which are slow to generate, hard to understand, and require heavy maintenance.
We'll start with a '101' level introduction to Business Architecture, discussing both the process of defining a Business Architecture and also some of the models that Business Architecture produces. We'll also try to understand the value of Business Architecture.
We'll then start to map some Lean Principles to Business Architecture and try and understand how we could potentially optimise the value stream. We'll consider where Business Architecture can be wasteful, discussing the diminishing value of information and the concept of analysis paralysis.
Finally I'll introduce you to a leaner approach to Business Architecture that focusses on rapid techniques for model generation and heavier engagement of system actors in both the development and the maintenance of models. I'll also share my technique for rapid enterprise modelling which can help you to build a capability model in hours rather than weeks/months.

Much has been written about technical and solution architectures, without due attention being given to how these work together with the Business Architecture.
It is easy to believe that those who are involved in business analysis, requirements definition and systems modelling do not need to consider the Business Architecture at all. This could not be further from the truth. This talk explains the rationale behind Business Architecture, what its main components are and why Business Analysts should ensure that they understand it and the influence it is likely to have on their work.

Using Business Architecture to enable customer experience and digital strategyCraig Martin
Digital disruption is shifting business model design from a focus on product profitability to a stronger focus on customer experience and lifetime value.
The presentation looks at environmental pressures caused by digital disruption and identifies how to use business architecture and business design to address these changes.
It covers business architecture for digital strategy, customer-driven value chains, re-writing of the 4Ps of the marketing mix, and the nine laws of disruption and how they affect business model design.Craig also investigates the changes afoot with strategic business planning and Enterprise Architecture, which are experiencing their own form of disruption. Will Enterprise Architecture as we know it become a commodity too?
This presentation was delivered as an OpenGroup webinar and is available for viewing from the www.enterprisearchitects.com web site.
An Introduction into the design of business using business architectureCraig Martin
Business Architecture is gaining interest from many non-traditional architecture stakeholders across the enterprise however most remain unclear of its scope and application. This webinar was presented through the Open Group as lead up to the London 2013 Conference on business transformation. It provides an overview of the language, methods and techniques of developing a business architecture and assist architects to demonstrate its relevance to business leaders. It also provides an insight into the method and techniques taught in the "Discovering Business Architecture" course run by Enterprise Architects.
Introduction to Business Architecture - Part 2Alan McSweeney
The first part is available at: https://www.slideshare.net/alanmcsweeney/introduction-to-business-architecture-part-1.
This material describes conducting a specific business architecture engagement. The engagement process is generic and needs to be adapted to each specific application and use. The engagement is a formal process for gathering information and creating a new business function model based on an analysis of that information.
The objective is to create a realistic and achievable target business architecture to achieve the desired business change.
Business architecture is a structured approach to analysing the operation of an existing business function or entire organisation with a view to improving its operations or developing a new business function, with a strong focus on processes and technology. Business architecture is not about business requirements – it is about business solutions and organisation changes to deliver business objectives.
Object Oriented Business Capability Map - IIBA 2022 - Draft.pptxAustraliaChapterIIBA

About this event
Ever wondered how to develop business capability maps? or perhaps you need a refresher?
Join Mohammad Mirkarimi Senior Business Architect at Capsifi and David Grindlay Principal Business Architect at Capsifi as they guide us through this session.
Captivated by art, science and business - Mohammad is trying to bring these three together. Moh is a drummer, a physics and biology enthusiast, and a business architect and analyst. He has studied Engineering, Business Management and Finance in academia. Also, equipped with IIBA, TOGAF and The Business Architecture Guild bodies of knowledge. Moh has worked as team member, leader and visionary in Management Consulting, Banking, Wealth, Insurance, Government, Telecom and Education industries.
With over 15 years of experience implementing software, David started his career as a business analyst in South Africa primarily in the financial services – insurance industry. In 2014 he moved over to Australia where he really started to observe the notorious gap between business strategies and project roadmaps as well as the downstream implications. More recently in his career, he gained broader exposure to other industries (Retail, Financial Services, Government and Hospitality) helping to structurally decompose business strategies, define the business landscape and help project teams (Business and Technical) realise and align on their common purpose. Today, David considers himself a Business Architect, doing whatever it takes to help companies realise their vision.
This session will contain two parts:
The first part is about learning the basics. There will also be time to review some theoretical stuff – but we promise it won’t be boring! We’ll review The Business Architecture Guild’s view by taking an Object-oriented approach to developing a business capability map
In the second part, we’ll pick a business (a simple one for this exercise, e.g. local cafe) and apply what we’ve studied to develop a business capability map for the chosen business.
At the end of the session, there will be time to share our learnings!
Value analysis with Value Stream and Capability modelingCOMPETENSIS
The new Archimate 3.1 has improved the strategy layer with major modeling objects related to value analysis: value stream and capability.
These objects are linked and answer major questions :
- [VALUE STREAM] What value do we deliver to customers ? What value do we want to deliver to customers ? This is the enterprise business model.
- [CAPABILITY] What operational model do we need to deliver value ? The capability model describes the operational model required to deliver value to customers.
You cannot succeed to transform a business model, enterprise activities without considering Value Stream & Capability analysis. Technology considerations are necessary but not sufficient.
Feel free to contact if you wish to get more support with your transformation projet.
This presentation elaborates on design decisions and design options when it comes to designing the master data architecture.
The presentation was given at the 16th Americas Conference on Information Systems (AMCIS 2010) in Lima, Peru.
From Capability-Based Planning to Competitive Advantage: Assembling Your Bus...Iver Band
Many organizations are investing in capability-based planning, portfolio management, architecture and agile development processes. While they derive value from each practice, many struggle with getting all of them to work together. In rapidly evolving industries such as healthcare, businesses need to change continuously. Instead of programs and projects, they need transformation value networks that adapt to dynamic organizational and external drivers.
This presentation will use a unified framework and method to define and relate the ingredients for continuous transformation. The presenters will also demonstrate the value of standards-based visual modeling for integrating, expressing and improving business transformation practices. Visual models will show how American and European healthcare payers are improving quality and efficiency in response to demographic, economic and regulatory pressures.
Learning Objectives:
• Understand how to integrate capability-based planning, portfolio management, architecture and agile development processes
• Identify and position key frameworks for capability-based planning, portfolio management, architecture and agile development processes
• Understand core concepts and key applications of the ArchiMate language for visual modeling, an Open Group standard
• Understand the basics of visually modeling business strategy and organizational transformation
• Become familiar with the objectives and methods for an example of business transformation
• Understand how and when to integrate strategic guidance into agile development processes
Business Architecture is a multi dimensional discipline primarily focused on organizational structure and performance in terms of business strategy, business functions, capabilities, roles and their relationships. Implementing and executing Business Strategy goals is among Business Architecture’s focus areas.
This presentation and discussion will focus on Strategic planning relationship with Business Architecture. Employing Business Architecture techniques, Corporate Planners can translate business strategy goals into actions, identify critical areas of enterprise change and transformation while identifying and mitigating related risks.
The role of enterprise architecture in digital transformationDanny Greefhorst
Enterprise architecture and digital transformation are a great combination. Enterprise architecture provides a structured way to support your digital transformation. It enables you to translate your value proposition to the capabilities and enablers to support it. In provides integration of all relevant aspects; people, process, information and technology. It provides insight, supports planning and shows what is really important.

It is well known that an effective PMO is key to successful and efficient program and project execution. In other words, doing things “right”. Enterprise Architecture is the discipline that plans and monitors enterprise transformation and aligns the business strategy with information technology capabilities. In other words, doing the “right things” to support the business.
Why is it organizations despite having both of these disciplines still struggle with effective enterprise transformation? What can we done to use these disciplines more effectively to effect better business outcomes? What are the roles of each discipline and how do they work together to create business value?
In this presentation, Riaz will address these questions and will provide real life examples that can help build a strong relationship between the PMO and Enterprise Architecture.
Learning Objectives:
• How to build a strong relationship between the PMO and Enterprise Architecture (EA) to deliver positive outcomes for your organization
• Identify the different roles and functions of the PMO and EA as well as their similarities

Purpose of the BIZBOK® Guide
A Guide to the Business Architecture Body of Knowledge® (BIZBOK® Guide) provides an industry
standard framework for business architecture practitioners and individuals who wish to use
business architecture to address business challenges. This practical guide comes in the form of
best practices, gleaned from numerous companies and business architecture leaders.
Practitioners of business architecture understand the importance of having a comprehensive yet
user-friendly handbook for the growing number of organizations embracing this important
discipline.
The BIZBOK® Guide benefits organizations at every stage of the business architecture practice.
The focus on practitioners is geared at advancing organizations that have already committed at
least some resources toward business architecture. Organizations just getting started can use it
as a means to establish a foundation for a solid business architecture practice. For those
organizations with an established business architecture practice, it enables deployment teams to
solidify best practices while incorporating aspects of business architecture that may have been
underemphasized in the past.
The BIZBOK® Guide also provides a complete picture of business architecture, tying together
various concepts, disciplines, principles, and best practices into an overall framework. In addition,
it has the capacity to incorporate and leverage a wide range of business practices and emerging
disciplines. As a result, it establishes the standard for building, deploying, and leveraging business
architecture within an organization. The BIZBOK® Guide is practitioner-driven, representing a
collective and growing body of contributions from business architecture practitioners across a

Steps for a Powerful Business Architecture PracticeHarold Heard
Most business architecture teams jump right into defining business architecture models and frameworks. They spend incredibly little time defining the practice itself, what they want it to be, and how they are going to drive results.
Today, business architecture is everywhere. So what is the definition and scope of business architecture? As a concept, business architecture is often misunderstood, over-used, under-used, or wrongly-used.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.

GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
