Practical DoDAF Presentation to International Council on Systems Engineering Washington Metro Area by Steven H. Dam Ph.D., ESEP, founder of SPEC Innovations
Practical DoD Architecture Framework (DoDAF) with InnoslateElizabeth Steiner
DoDAF expert, Steve Dams explains Practical DoDAF and how to implement it through Innoslate, a systems engineering and program management tool. The slides explain the need for many dimensions to completely describe the architecture, including (risk, decisions, data, systems, components, organizations, etc). Learn how Architecture forms the foundation of dynamic analysis.
"Overview of DoDAF with Innoslate" answers the questions:
- Why is DoDAF Important to DoD?
- How Can We Do Good Systems Engineering and Meet DoDAF Requirements?
-How Can MBSE Tools Specifically Support DoDAF?
Your webinar host, Dr. Steve Dam provides you with an in-depth overview of the DoDAF 2.0 using the systems engineering software, Innoslate. Dr. Dam, the President and Founder of SPEC Innovations, participated in the development of DoDAF. He recently published "DoDAF 2.02 A Guide to Applying System Engineering to Develop Integrated, Executable Architectures." The presenter will provides a live tool demonstration of Innoslate with a questions and answer session to follow.

Your Challenge
It is difficult to start the project, engage the right people, and find the necessary requirements to drive the value of an enterprise architecture operating model.
It is challenging to navigate the common enterprise architecture (EA) frameworks and right-size them for your organization.
The EA practice may struggle to effectively collaborate with the business when making decisions, resulting in outcomes that fail to engage stakeholders.
Our Advice
Critical Insight
The benefits of an EA program are only realized when all components of the operating model enable the achievement of the program goals and objectives. Many times organizations overplay the governance card while ignoring the motivational aspects that can be addressed through the organization's structure or stakeholder relations.
Info-Tech’s methodology ensures that all components of an EA operating model are considered to optimize the performance of the EA program.
Impact and Result
Place and structure your EA team to address the needs of stakeholders and deliver on the previously created strategy.
Create an engagement model by understanding each relevant process of COBIT 5 and make stakeholder interaction cards to initiate conversations.
Recognize the need for governance and formulate the appropriate boards while considering various policies, principles, and compliance.
Develop a unique architecture development framework based on best-practice approaches with an understanding of the various architectural views to ensure the creation of a successful process.
Build a communication plan and roadmap to efficiently navigate through enterprise change and involve the necessary stakeholders.

Why Solutions Fail and the Business Value of Solution ArchitectureAlan McSweeney
This is an extract from the book introduction to Solution Architecture that provides a solution architecture perspective on why solution delivery fails. It is a reasonable statement that in the minds of many people failure is synonymous with information technology projects. While this perception is an exaggeration, the outcomes of many IT solution delivery projects represent failures to at least some extent. It is also often true that solution delivery failure is attributed to project management failure such as the quality, skill and experience of the project manager or the misapplication or lack of application of a project management methodology. However, the most effective project management will not make an undeliverable, unworkable, unusable solution deliverable, workable or usable. The solution architect should concern himself or herself with the ultimate success of the project to deliver the designed solution.

While going through in-depth on Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) and Enterprise Architecture (EA) as part of my Oracle SOA and TOGAF certification, I had questions as to how SOA fits in the EA, and how TOGAF for EA support adopting SOA.
Here is an attempt to address that...

What Does the Webinar Cover?
You'll learn how to optimize varying parameters and disciplines throughout the lifecycle of the system within cost and schedule constraints without compromising performance. Real MBSE enables the execution of many activities in parallel, thus enabling the “faster and cheaper” part.
Many people can contribute to the design and development at the same time, because the information they create can be easily linked together to form abstractions that enable you to communicate the results at all levels. Dr. Dam uses a methodology that includes the technique, processes, and tools.
This methodology isn’t the only way to have a successful MBSE capability, but all three elements must be incorporated in any methodology you use. We offer this methodology as one that has proven successful over the past decade. It is based on methodologies used since the 1960s, but updated to the modern cloud computing, artificial intelligence age; that's now emerging toward the end of the second decade of the 21st Century.
Often people today work in a similar manner to how their grandparents worked in the 1960s, just with electronic tools instead of paper and pencil. Just creating a “model” doesn’t mean you are doing effective MBSE. This webinar will show you how to take MBSE into the 21st century.
This webinar will provide you with a better understanding of digital engineering and a "digital thread." Your host, Dr. Steven Dam, discusses how tool integration plays a role in the path to digital engineering and what SPEC Innovations is doing with Innoslate to foster that role. Often overlooked are the potential issues with creating a full digital twin. Dr. Dam discusses these issues and how systems engineers can combat them.

Is There a Return on Investment from Model-Based Systems Engineering?Elizabeth Steiner
See our latest webinar “Is There a Return on Investment from MBSE?” This question is one that many people ask. In fact, the International Council on Systems Engineering (INCOSE) has that as one of its tasks for their Value Proposition Initiative. A group of systems engineers is trying to find evidence to prove that MBSE has value. However, that becomes very difficult for a concept that has only been around for a dozen years, when the lifecycle of many of the systems of interest are measured in several decades. Your host Dr. Steven Dam will walk you through a method of finding a case for MBSE in this webinar.
https://youtu.be/NnQDinanhJU
Your host, Dr. Steven Dam, will walk you through all the changes from Innoslate 4.2. He'll show you the new Charts View and how to create and edit XY plots. You'll also get to see how you can generate Systems Requirements Documents (SRD) right from an asset diagram. Other new features that will be shown: Support Dashboard, Roll Up Models, Entity Definition Report, and Document Template Generation.
Your host, Dr. Steven Dam, will show you the ins and outs of the main features and dashboards. He'll provide you with expert tips and tricks as you walk through creating a new account and starting a brand new project for the very first time
This webinar is intended for new Innoslate users.
Slides from the webinar "How to Perform Model-Based Reviews." Learn how you can make the dream of an integrated, paperless design, development, production, and operations process a reality.
Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) is an ambiguous concept that means many things to many different people. The purpose of this presentation is to “de-mystify” MBSE, with the intent of moving the sub-discipline forward. Model-Based Systems Engineering was envisioned to manage the increasing complexity within systems and System of Systems (SoS). This presentation defines MBSE as the formalized application of modeling (static and dynamic) to support system design and analysis, throughout all phases of the system lifecycle, and through the collection of modeling languages, structures, model-based processes, and presentation frameworks used to support the discipline of systems engineering in a model-based or model-driven context. Using this definition, the components of MBSE (modeling languages, processes, structures, and presentation frameworks) are defined. The current state of MBSE is then evaluated against a set of effective measures. Finally, this presents a vision for the future direction of MBSE.
Moving Past Spreadsheets with Modern Requirements ManagementElizabeth Steiner
