Class Details: Reasons You Need Our Training in Enterprise Architecture Best Practices:

This class is the "why" and "how to" of modeling processes start to end for the enterprise.

(1)Business enterprise needs end-to-end enterprise visibility.

Business management is demanding enterprise-wide models as well as IT is requiring business models to develop the solutions.

SmartPath LLC enterprise architecture modeling will explain the swim lanes of enterprise architecture from strategies to IT operations. Portfolio architecture is also one of the swim lanes.

(2) If enterprise architecture modeling includes portfolio architecture it adds to reuse.

Enterprise architecture modeling offers strategy and goal visibility across all functional departments. It is cost effective, efficient and is crucial in streamlining business. Enterprise architecture modeling is also the prerequisite in order to implement SOA.

(3) When enterprise architects use our models (workflows), and apply our methods to their practices they will not miss any of the connections needed for business objects.

These object connections start with business strategy and end with IT operations. This optimizes business requirements, solution development, and IT operations. You will learn what models to create and how to create them.

(4) We teach process-driven, time-based enterprise architecture modeling methods.

This is unique in the field. These process-driven methods create end-to-end enterprise visibility. After the successful completion of this class, the overall understanding of enterprise architecture modeling is crystal clear and the EAM's (enterprise architecture modelers) can execute a small or large enterprise with ease.

(5) Day Two covers how to use the Casewise Tool. A Basic walkaround with some simple modeling to get acquainted with the tool.

Summary

(1) One of the reasons enterprise architecture often fails is the inability of the architects to see all of the architectural pieces in the BIG picture of an enterprise.(We term it as a “woolly mammoth.”) Enterprise Architecture framework cannot be successful without an end-to-end visibility and continuity of meta data (business objects). In enterprise architecture, it is essential to connect every aspect of an enterprise that starts with business strategy and ends with IT operations in order to deliver products, services and results.

(2) SmartPath LLC has developed enterprise architecture modeling methods that separately identify each area starting with Enterprise Business Inventory, Business Process Architecture, Application Architecture, Technology Architecture, Enterprise Portfolio Architecture, and ends with Enterprise IT Inventory. Portfolio management is often ignored in enterprise architecture. Ignoring Portfolio management creates a major disconnect between business requirements and IT solutions. However, our enterprise architecture methods encompass portfolio management along with other architecture disciplines mentioned above.

Who Should Take This Class?

Training in enterprise architecture modeling is for business analysts, project and portfolio managers and business development managers, and IT personnel. Individuals in business enterprise who want to learn these methods can benefit greatly from the training. In this training you will learn how to create, visualize, and model existing business processes and also learn how to create "to-be" models that could be used for identifying areas of business process improvement. This valuable training enables you to create a business view that is usable by business management and system developers. Enterprise architecture models help businesses become more efficient and cost effective.

This class is invaluable for enterprise architecture modelers who want to hone their skills. You will receive learning with us that is unparalleled in the field. This training is the result of 25 years industry experience.
