Why Enterprise Architecture matters
Enterprise Architecture is key to deliver sustainable efficiency in your company. This is part of our holistic approach to foster digitialization in a sustainable way and to increase efficiency thoughout the whole company
Assess your EA Initiative
We refer to Enterprise Architecture as an initiative rather than a governance body. That is because Enterprise Architecture as a governance body merely sets boundaries and is limited in its capacity for creative contribution. We view Enterprise Architecture as both a governance body as well as a partner to the business to determine the use of technologies enabling future businesses.

An Enterprise Architecture Initiative should address various aspects. You can see them outlined in the chart on the left.
​
Take a glance at the image and check where your company might currently be. The scope of EA can be very limited inside your IT Department only reducing EAs possibilities to system architecture. Or it can span throughout the complete company, its data and processes, thus enabling it to develop successfully in the long term.

Get out to Business!
Enterprise architecture can only deliver sustainable results if it works closely with the Business Drivers.
Understanding processes, data and how they interact is the foundation of digitalization. Enterprise Architects must work closely with Business Drivers who have a vision of what the business unit wants to achieve in the coming years.
Digitalization that focuses on applications loses the potential to create sustainable value because it is tied to today's world and misses out on the efficiency gains that could be achieved by handling data differently.
When using AI, it is essential to have a clear understanding of where the required data can be found in the required quality and how it can best be used. Historical data is also very important. A purely application-driven EA cannot add value here.
