9. So What is IT s Mission? IT-‐led teams have consistently found new ways to streamline enterprise business processes, vastly improving operaLng eﬃciency and reducing costs. Corporate leaders, however, are raising the bar: they expect IT s core mission to expand from cost-‐cuSng to enabling revenue generaLon within a short period of Lme. – EIU, December 2006

10. According to recent CIO pollsfrom research firm Gartner Inc.,50% of CIOs surveyed said theynow have duties outside of coretechnology, such as helping tocraft corporate strategy.Wall Street Journal, 20 February 2007

11. IT Knows the Enterprise •  Nobody knows the whole company like the CIO (André Mendes, Special Olympics) •  Precise descripQons of business processes are a prerequisite to understanding those processes. •  We understand business process opQmizaQon: streamlining processes, leaning processes, greening processes

12. IT IS the Enterprise « Business » should be doing enterprise architecture, but they won’t do it – so we have to do it for them. John Zachman

13. Big Trends: GlobalizaQon

14. Big Trends: Connectedness

15. Big Trends: Digital Value Chains

16. Big Trends: ConQnuous InnovaQon

17. Big Trends: ConQnuous Change "If you dont like change, youre going to like irrelevance even less.- General Eric Shinseki, Chief of Staff, US Army.

18. Big Trends: Big Problems =Complexity

29. Standards are important:Example: Great Baltimore Fire

30. IntegraQon is Hard Executive decisions, mergers & acquisitions have a way of surprising us…

31. One Standard? And the cost of adaptaQon must be low. Never let the engineers bring out solution N+1

32. OMG s Mission •  Develop an architecture, using appropriate technology, for modeling & distributed applicaQon integraQon, guaranteeing: – reusability of components – interoperability & portability – basis in commercially available soaware •  SpeciﬁcaQons freely available •  ImplementaQons exist •  Member-‐controlled not-‐for-‐proﬁt

34. OMG & Modeling •  Model Driven Architecture starts with core standard modeling languages, including: –  UML (broad soaware & systems) –  SysML (systems engineering) –  SoaML (service-‐oriented architectures) –  BPMN (business processes) –  IFML (interacQon ﬂow) –  CWM (data warehouses) –  MOF (modeling languages) –  UPDM (enterprise architectures)

35. OMG s Focus •  Three key infrastructure standards foci: –  Modeling –  Middleware –  Real-‐Qme & other specialized systems •  More than 20 verQcal market foci: –  Healthcare –  Financial services –  RoboQcs –  Etc. •  Focused working groups –  Business Architecture –  Cloud CompuQng

36. OMG s Breadth of Standards •  Besides key modeling, distributed compuQng & realQme/embedded standards, OMG develops standards in Healthcare Financial Services TelecommunicationsGovernment Military Logistics ManufacturingRobotics Systems Engineering Military CommsSmart Grid Automotive/Consumer Device Safety…constantly growing based on member demands

37. Some Examples •  Cloud compuQng –  Cofounded cloudstandards.org; focused on portable deployment to support many business models •  Enterprise Architecture –  DoDAF/MODAF architecture frameworks –  Languages for interoperability •  Military systems –  Both communicaQons and C4I command/control •  Civil Government –  Electronic records management –  Skills management •  TelecommunicaQons, RoboQcs, Healthcare, Manufacturing, etc. •  Soaware Quality

38. Enterprise IntegraQon? •  Our job is mostly about managing complexity •  Modeling languages are a powerful way to express integraQon in a way both technical people and business people can understand •  IntegraQon has to be designed, and standard designs have always worked in other integraQon ﬁelds (mechanical, civil, electrical engineering & construcQon examples)
