From Theory to Value: Transforming Enterprise Architecture for Measurable Business Outcomes

Enterprise Architecture (EA) often finds itself caught between theoretical ideals and real-world application. While frameworks and academic methodologies provide structure, the disconnect between these approaches and practical business needs frequently undermines EA's impact. To truly thrive, modern EA must evolve—shifting from a focus on frameworks to delivering measurable business outcomes.

Highlights:

  • Bridging Theory and Practice: Simplify and adapt EA approaches to close the gap between academic frameworks and practical execution, ensuring measurable impact.
  • Shifting from Frameworks to Outcomes: Redefine EA as a strategic enabler by focusing on business value and establishing metrics that align initiatives with goals such as cost savings and innovation.
  • Establishing a Modern EA with SAP LeanIX: Utilize SAP LeanIX to visualize, manage, and optimize your enterprise architecture, enabling data-driven decision-making and continuous improvement.
