Online shop ... Enterprise architecture productivity tools

There are many enterprise architecture artefacts that really boost productivity.

Some of the simplest provide a checklist or a generic starter kit. For example, instead of starting from scratch to define a detailed business model, start with a generic function model that already defines up to 80% of all business functions.

A generic model saves time and effort by providing quality definitions in a well-structured model and can be swiftly customized to your exact needs.
