Enterprise Integration with the Business Architecture
Cutter Consortium, Sep 2011, Pages: 19
During the past several years, interest in this newly realized architecture of the business has sparked interest and gained momentum. The best way to build a business architecture (BA) is to always consider it as integrated with the firm’s chosen enterprise architecture (EA) framework and driven by the corporate strategy. This results in development of a corporate nexus, which enables the integration and alignment of enterprise components.
The report Enterprise Integration with the Business Architecture by Ralph Whittle discusses enterprise integration with the BA and in the formal context of an engineering discipline. It describes the BA as a reusable asset that can bring about a 'new order of things.' Several BA models that illustrate the integration of enterprise components - the manifestation of an engineering discipline - support the discussion.
Integrating the BA throughout the enterprise within an EA framework creates an asset that is used over and over again and improved over time. The BA is changing corporate behavior, creating a new unifying structure, delighting customers, integrating the enterprise, and achieving a competitive advantage.
