level of easy to use capability?
- Business Ecology
- Systemic, comprehensive rethinking of business
and IT - Working together to create productive and
efficient organizations and ecosystems - Enables the sustainable, efficient, agile
business of the 21st century
4Today, IT is integral to the business

integrated and vital asset to the business
- IT must drive efficiency and revenue, and provide
measurable, clear return on investment. - Business must have easy, seamless access to the
services needed to be successful
5Business Ecology is based on clear, easily
accessible technology

business. - Focused on minimizing waste and optimizing
capability across business processes - IT needs to provide business focus on

8OMG Business Ecology Initiative
- Vision
- OMG Business Ecology Initiative (BEI) brings
together customers and vendors committed to
helping IT create sustainable, open business
processes
- Mission Statement
- Ensure message of BE is well communicated and
integral to OMG Programs (BPM-C / SOA-C, GCIO) - Publish examples of sustainable business
processes - Communicate successful client BE initiatives
- Help Organizations adopt Business Ecology and
Implement Actionable Architecture concepts
9OMG and BE
- SOA-C is about capturing business processes and
governing the extension of existing processes to
new capabilities - BPM-C is about optimizing existing processes,
finding opportunities for reuse and focusing
efforts on business targets - GCIO is about finding economies in processes
throughout the business that can minimize
resource usage without downgrading value or
efficiency - OMG standards are about amortizing costs over a
larger marketplace, minimize systems
interoperability and portability costs to give
the business flexibility and agility
10What is an Actionable Architecture
- Actionable Architecture
- Output of business process analysis
- Includes decisions that maximize value and
minimize waste - Examples
- Creation, automation or termination of a business
process - Movement of an automated process to the public
cloud, private cloud, or in-house computing
utility - Initiating governance of a process --
computing-related or not -- to lean and/or green
that process - Identification of opportunities to minimize waste
(of people, computing resources, electricity,
water, paper, etc.) - Reuse of existing processes in new ways to
support a new business capability
