Business model update

As part of the sixth article in the autonomous architecture series have I’ve updated the business model canvas to reflect how it relates to the different business units & value propositions.

For me, the business model is always the starting point to the enterprise architecture documentation.

The next step is then to collect relevant information to create a high level architecture (as-is and to-be), such as:

• Business vision

• Market trends

• Organisation

• Business capabilities

• Architecture principles

• High-level processes

• Information objects

• Main applications & infrastructure

• Integrations

and how all the above things fit together. Then we we can talk about scenarios and evaluate them.

Yes, I use a framework and different tools to create the documentation.
