About This Event
This highly practical 2-day Conference and series of workshops is aimed specifically at
Enterprise Architecture Practitioners and those directly involved in the management and
oversight of Enterprise Architecture.
Todays CEOs know that the effective management and exploitation of Information
Technology is the key to business success. An Enterprise Architecture provides the
strategic context for the evolution of Information Technology within the enterprise, in
response to the constantly changing needs of the business environment.
An effective Enterprise Architecture also enables managed innovation within the
enterprise, by enabling the right balance to be achieved between IT efficiency and
business innovation. Individual business units can innovate safely in their pursuit of
competitive advantage; at the same time, the needs of the organization for an integrated
IT strategy are assured, permitting the closest possible synergy across the extended
enterprise.
This event focuses on the use of enterprise architecture for the effective creation of
real business value. It provides experience-based insight into approaches and methods that
have proven effective in developing enterprise architectures around the world. Just as
importantly, it also aims to clarify the limitations that exist in this still immature
field.
The overall Conference structure will cover the following key topic areas in the
Enterprise Architecture space:
- WORKSHOPS:
- Making the Business Case for Enterprise Architecture
- How to use Enterprise Architecture for Effective IT Outsourcing
- Value-based best practices at each stage of the EA process:
- How to Create and Sell a Compelling Architecture Vision
- How to Develop Business Architectures for Real RoI
- Effective Strategies for Architecture Implementation and Compliance
- How to Manage Architecture Change
- TUTORIALS:
- Understanding the Core Capabilities on which to Focus when Introducing Enterprise
Architecture
- How to Set Up an Internal Enterprise Architecture Practice
- Effective Architecture Governance Strategies
- Undertanding How to Iintegrate Key Technologies into Enterprise Architecture.
- CASE STUDIES:
- Enterprise Architecture Frameworks in Practice - Understanding What Different Frameworks
Have to Offer, and How to Use the Best of Each
- Tools for Enterprise Architecture -- the capabilities of existing tools for enterprise
architecture, and innovative approaches to tool interoperability.
- Enterprise Architecture in Specific Vertical Sectors: Government, Commercial and Finance
- EXHIBITIONS:
- Throughout the event there will be exhibitions from leading architecture tools vendors,
providing opportunities for hands-on, 1-on-1 discussions and demonstrations
What Makes This Event Unique
The Open Group is uniquely positioned within the IT industry to bring together the buy
side and the supply side to agree the real requirements that the industry needs to
address, and effective methods of addressing them.
Within the Architecture domain, The Open Group has been active over the last decade,
developing and making freely available its own architecture framework - TOGAF. Developed by The
Open Group's Architecture Forum, TOGAF is today accepted and used around the world as a
genuinely open framework and method for Enterprise Architecture.
The Open Group provides in this unique Conference a forum in which all constituencies
and stakeholders in Enterprise Architecture can come together to learn the approaches and
methods that have proven effective in developing enterprise architectures around the
world. Just as importantly, it aims to clarify the limitations that exist in this still
immature field.
