Assignment Description: Students should prepare statements describingthe organizations (1) business goals; (2) enterprise architecture goals; (3)business architecture goals, and (4) business architectureprinciples. The statements should be in the attached sample format. Students should use the attached templates/images to complete the assignment. You may choose an organization you are currently working with, one you know of, or an imaginary organization. The important point here is to choose an organization you can work with throughout the semester.
A word of caution on defining goals. Do not go too deeply. Deep business goal definitions (why/what) generally stray over into business process flows. If you find that your statements are tending to the “how”, step back and refocus on the why/what.
For this assignment, it might be easiest to begin with a visual or graphic representation of your goal structure. You may use the template below to identify your organization’s top level goals, and to then break those goals down into subgoals.
It is also possible for you to begin the exercise with a more detailed description of goals and their attributes. The table below provides the breakdown that you will want to work with. Regardless of which structure you begin the exercise, please complete both representations. Please also feel free to design a different structure for representing your enterprise business goals. This table and graphic are illustrative rather than prescriptive. Just make sure that you’ve covered all of the attributes.
• Goal Name: Give the goal a simple name that you can use in future components of the blueprint
• Description of Achievement: What is it that this goal will help you to achieve
• Intended Results: What is the outcome or result you will achieve when you’ve satisfied this goal.
• Measurement: How do you intend to measure progress towards this goal, and how will you measure the outcome or result.
• Timeframe: What is the time horizon established for achieving this goal?
• Source: Where did this goal statement come from? Who are the stakeholders associated with this goal?
