EDGY Capability Modeling Guidelines

Capability maps have a long history. They came out of business schools in the 50ies. In recent years the enterprise and business architecture communities seem to have taken over, making capabilities more of an IT rather than a business modeling concept. Most capability maps we've seen fail to achieve their original purpose: to enable business people to design better enterprises - ones that are fit for purpose, efficient, adaptable to change, and satisfying to customers.

In this session we present the newest EDGY publication, our Capability modeling guidelines helping you to design your Capabilities to optimise flow and adaptability assess Capability performance using the attributes effectiveness, efficiency and adaptability iterate and socialize to build a coalition for gap closure establish Capabilities as the cornerstone of strategic management.
