Enterprise Transformation Projects

This article presents the ETP-HSC and a corresponding enterprise transformation framework, where the focus is on the application of Enterprise Architecture (EA) to support Security (EA4S) and it is the central topic. The EA4S is a Polymathic-holistic approach, which adopts a clear EA as the main ETP constraint for the implementation of a secured Information and Communications System’s (ICS). EA and all other ICS related architecture disciplines, are inspired from the term Architecture that comes from civil engineering, and in this domain, secured building objects are achieved by implementing robust building and urbanistic architectures, like the famous case of Hausmann’s Architecture and Urbanistic plan for the (re)Architecture of Paris in France, in which its primary objective was to assert Paris’ security. Therefore, the author considers that EAS’ first step is to build an enterprise security concept. But for enterprises that have been archaically built and do not have the needed resources to implement a Haussmannian security concept, therefore an iterative ETP-HSC implementation process can transform the enterprise’s security. ETP-HSC’s feasibility and integrity can be supported by an integrated Applied Holistic Mathematical Model (AHMM) for EAS (AHMM4EAS), and the author’s various research works on the applications of holistic security concepts, ETPs, Artificial Intelligence (AI), Cloud Services (CS), and AHMM. The ETP-SRC is based on a multi-disciplinary proprietary-mixed research method.

Perancangan Enterprise Architecture Pada SMKN1 di Pulau Bangka Menggunakan Metode Zachman Framework

SMKN1 on the island of Bangka is a school located in the Bangka area. Currently, SMKN1 already uses and implements IS/IT to carry out its business processes. There are several problems in schools such as a website system that cannot be accessed, student attendance records are done manually so that recording errors often occur, and errors in recording the names of students who have attended extracurricular due to the large number of students. Therefore, we need an IS/IT design that can support the company's ongoing business processes. In this study, research and design were carried out with the application of enterprise architecture. The framework used in this article is the Zachman framework. In this paper, a complete perspective is not used, only using a 4x5 perspective because the process is not carried out until the implementation, the process is carried out only until the design. The result of the design is in the form of an IS/IT system blueprint. Suggested applications are school websites, e-library websites, attendance websites, procurement systems, and extracurricular websites.

Application of Enterprise Architecture and Artificial Neural Networks to Optimize the Production Process

Production optimization is a complex process because it must take into account various resources of the company and its environment. In this process, it is necessary to consider the enterprise as a whole, taking into account the interaction between its key elements, both in the technological and business layer. For this reason, the article proposes the use of enterprise architecture, which facilitates the interaction of these layers in the production optimization process. As a result, a proprietary meta-model of enterprise architecture was presented, which, based on good practices and the assumptions of enterprise architecture, facilitates the construction of detailed optimization models in the area of planning, scheduling, resource allocation, and routing. The production optimization model formulated as a mathematical programming problem is also presented. The model was built taking into account the meta-model. Due to the computational complexity of the optimization model, a method using an artificial neural network (ANN) was proposed to estimate the potential result based on the structure of the model and a given data instance before the start of optimization. The practical application of the presented approach has been shown based on the example of optimization of the production of an exemplary production cell where the cost of storage and the number of unfulfilled orders and maintenance are optimized.

Application of Enterprise Architecture in Digital Transformation of Insurance Companies

Implementation of enterprise architecture is a major requirement for companies that want to develop business processes according to their needs. Business architecture is the company's initial plan to support the company's operations. An insurance company is a company that provides insurance services. Insurance is a form of contract in which the guaranteed party pays a premium to the insurance company. Insurance companies provide payment guarantees in the event of certain risks that are guaranteed in the insurance contract. Therefore, this company must think about operational forms to provide the best service for its customers. Structuring business processes starting from the sales process, administrative processes, claims processes, to financial processes which are the most vital processes. Insurance companies are different from other financial services companies, such as banking companies, fintech companies and others. The insurance company's unique process is to provide guarantees to its customers in carrying out risk protection. Before starting to implement enterprise architecture, the company already has a business architecture blueprint which is the enterprise architecture of a company. The design begins with running architectural business processes, architectural applications, architectural databases and architectural technology. Enterprise architecture implementation certainly cannot be separated from project management. Because project management is a process that manages the project so that the project becomes more organized in its implementation

Enterprise Architecture Approach for Project Management and Project-Based Organizations: A Review

Project-based organizations (PBOs) derive income from conducting projects for their clients. Maintaining the most effective and efficient project governance style is an ongoing process for these organizations as the context continuously changes. Enterprise architecture (EA) is a systemic approach that supports organizations in modeling and describing themselves in different layers, such as strategy, business, application, and technology. This literature review describes the current state of EA usage in improving and quickly revising project management governance in PBOs to benefit practitioners and researchers for an integrated view of EA, PM, and PBO, and identification of future research gaps. This review used an EA model composed of layers as an analytical framework. The extracted bibliometric and content data from selected articles were processed using the VOSviewer tool for identifying and understanding the relationships between main concepts through network mapping. The selected articles are oriented to internal organization projects, mainly in information technology (IT). The need to align projects with business is highlighted, with EA positioned as a governance tool. It was found that application of EA in PBOs is rare. A trend toward using popular PM and EA frameworks, such as PMBOK and ArchiMate, was observed.

A Survey on the Application of Enterprise Architecture in Healthcare Systems

Enterprise architecture (EA) has been present in scientific literature since the 1980s and has branched out into several research fields. EA delivers value by presenting business and information technology leaders with recommendations for adjusting policies to achieve business goals. Although there are many works on the EA application in healthcare systems, the literature lacks studies that provide a systematic approach to this topic. This work presents a broad systematic literature review (SLR) to select studies demonstrating current EA practices in healthcare systems. The researchers established an SLR protocol returning 280 primary studies after the first step of the data selection and a consolidated inclusion of 46 articles after the second step. They assessed the level of disagreement during the team's evaluations using Cohen's Kappa. This SLR revealed essential aspects of state-of-the-art EA application in healthcare systems, such as the challenges, positive impacts, and critical success factors described by the studies' authors based on empirical approaches.

Sosiaali- ja terveydenhuollon kokonaisarkkitehtuurin kypsyysmallivertailu: näkökulmia kansalliseen ohjaukseen

Sosiaali- ja terveydenhuollon alueella kokonaisarkkitehtuurin (KA) tuloksia ei ole vielä laajasti arvioitu, vaikka menetelmää on sovellettu jo lähes parin vuosikymmen ajan. Tässä tutkimuksessa tarkastellaan tiettyjä keskeisiä kokonaisarkkitehtuurin kypsyysmalleja. Tutkimuksen lähtökohtana oli olettamus, että KA-kypsyyden kasvu parantaa julkishallinnon ohjausta. Tutkimusmenetelmänä käytettiin kuvailevaa kirjallisuuskatsausta. Tutkimus tuotti vertailun neljästä kypsyysmallista: EAMM, DyAMM, MIT CISR ja SAMM. Lisäksi tarkasteltiin kahden mallin, DyAMM ja SAMM arviointipiirteitä. Tämän tutkimuksen tulokset osoittavat, että KA-kypsyysmalleja on tutkittu vähän. Teoreettisen perustan heikkous onkin haaste KA-kehittämiselle ja kypsyysarvioinnille. Malleissa tunnistettuja ulottuvuuksia voitaisiin kuitenkin hyödyntää tehokkaammin julkishallinnon KA-ohjauksessa. Kypsyysmallien kehittäminen edellyttäisi jatkotutkimusta, jossa teoreettinen tutkimus yhdistettäisiin mallien testaamiseen tapausaineistolla. Malleja tulisi kehittää tutkimusnäyttöön perustuen eikä pelkästään yksittäisten hankkeiden perusteella. Tällä tavalla kypsyysmallit tuottaisivat luotettavaa ja paremmin kohteeseen soveltuvaa arviointia myös julkishallinnossa ja sen ohjauksessa.

Dynamics of Enterprise Architecture in the Korean Public Sector: Transformational Change vs. Transactional Change

Enterprise architecture (EA) is one of the most important tools for implementing e-government effectively and delivering high-quality information technology services to citizens. To develop a robust EA research model with key success factors, we apply the theory of organizational change proposed by Burke and Litwin, using the concepts of transformational and transactional change. The analysis is conducted by using South Korea’s EA project launched in 2003. This study classifies EA implementation in the South Korean public sector into three stages and explains the characteristics of each stage from the organizational change perspective. We raise the issue of EA application level compounded by the problem of diverse EA definitions and discuss the difficulties of EA implementation based on the framework of organizational change. In addition, 20 EA experts are surveyed to confirm the findings of this study. Finally, we propose a new research model for future empirical study based on the presented findings. We believe that this study, as an in-depth review of EA implementation from an organizational change perspective, will benefit EA experts from a practical point of view, as well as academics from a research perspective.

Green Enterprise Architecture using Environmental Intelligence

This paper discusses Green Enterprise Architecture (GEA), which is an extension and application of Enterprise Architecture in the environmental domain. A GEA makes strategic use of the green IT systems otherwise also known as CEMS – Carbon Emission Management Software – that results in an all-encompassing approach to the greening effort that incorporates carbon data, information, processes, and knowledge in the organization’s decision making. This paper highlights the significance of such a strategic approach to carbon control in practice. The challenges associated with implementing Green IT in organizations can be handled through a carefully construed green IT systems architecture that will not only enable implementation of dedicated system for carbon measures but also facilitate upgrade and integration of existing suite of ERP applications that incorporate carbon measures.
