What is Enterprise Architecture BI Reporting?

For those who are not familiar with Enterprise Architecture, you may be wondering how does it value other than the obvious i.e. ‘Modelling the Enterprise’. The short presentation below explains the concept of EA BI Reporting in a very simple and easy to understand way.

The presenter, Helmut Schindlwick states that:

Many organisations building models in order to understand their enterprise. Different stakeholders, teams working together in central repositories to be prepared for solving future problems. This presentation is focusing on Business Intelligence (BI) for Enterprise Architecture models/projects. Most important are the impact analysis reports, what happens if an application will be retired, or who is affected if an IT centre is no longer working are just a few possible questions to answer for an EA team.

Most experienced EA teams who are implementing strategic and tactical Enterprise Architecture initiatives use a variety of tools. In my experience the ability to take the concepts explained in this presentation to ‘next level’ and ensure that reporting can be readily accessible by all is to use a robust EA platform.

I would be interested to hear how well EA BI reporting is being adopted by not just EA teams but also wider organisational stakeholder.

Performance Metrics and KPIs – A Back Catalogue

I have been doing some work recently defining a performance measurement framework and during my cyber travels came across a site that catalogues a wide range of KPIs. Thought it may be useful for others who are looking for some specific descriptions of KPIs.

The KPI Library describes themselves as follows:

“The free Key Performance Indicator (KPI) Library is a community of business professionals that provides a catalogue of KPIs for identifying & prioritizing the KPIs that really matter for your organization’s success. Login or register for access.”

A link can also be found on my Resource page. I would be interested to hear how useful it is.

Enjoy!
