Most often this happens gradually, with small adjustments to strategy, organization, processes, or infrastructure. But sometimes enterprises need to go beyond minor fixes and transform themselves, in response to a disruptive event or dramatically changing circumstances--a merger, for example, or a new competitor. In this book, enterprise architecting experts Deborah Nightingale and Donna Rhodes offer a framework for enterprise transformation. Successful transformation, they believe, starts with a holistic approach, taking into consideration all facets of the enterprise and its environment rather than focusing solely on one factor--information technology, for example, or organizational structure. This is \u003ci\u003earchitecting the future enterprise\u003c\/i\u003e creating a blueprint for what the enterprise will look like after the transformation. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eNightingale and Rhodes introduce the ARIES (Architecting Innovative Enterprise Strategy) framework, including a ten enterprise element model and an architecting process model, and show how to apply it, from start to finish. They explain how to create a holistic vision for the future enterprise and how to generate concepts and alternative architectures; they describe techniques for evaluating possible architectures, tools for implementation planning, and strategies for communicating with stakeholders. Nightingale and Rhodes offer real-world examples throughout, drawing on their work at MIT, with an extensive case study of enterprise transformation at a medical device manufacturer. An appendix offers two additional architecting projects. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eSeven Architecting Imperatives \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMake architecting the initial activity in transformation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDevelop a comprehensive understanding of the enterprise landscape.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnderstand what stakeholders value and how that may change in the future.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUse multiple perspectives to see the whole enterprise.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCreate an architecting team suited to the transformation challenges.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEngage all levels of leadership in transformation. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eArchitect for the enterprise's changing world.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 200\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.42 x 9 x 7 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e June 11, 2024\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47403905286322,"sku":"9780262552462","price":54.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0770\/3891\/1666\/files\/e6bf584227c4c814f4cfbdcfb57e3b64.webp?v=1778147055","url":"https:\/\/box.dadyminds.org\/products\/architecting-the-future-enterprise-paperback","provider":"DADYMINDS BOX","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
