Business Architecture: Built on a Foundation of Business Analysis
Presented by: Smriti Sinha, Kelly Geraghty
Evolution in the business environment is occurring at an exponentially rapid pace across all industries. The government industry does not have the luxury of throwing additional resources or capital to address the changes, yet must deliver high value to its constituents in a timely manner. Government may be considered change averse, however, we, at the New York State Office of the State Comptroller (NYS OSC), are embracing the opportunities change opens.
Adaptability, efficiency, and an enterprise perspective are crucial for addressing change. In this one hour presentation, we will explore how NYS OSC is honing its practice of Business Architecture by leveraging good Business Analysis. This allows us to optimize existing business processes, address change with multi-dimensional thinking, and make informed business decisions to design solutions that work for a government agency.
Learning Objectives:
- Identify the role of Business Architecture in a company
- Identify how Business Analysis can be leveraged in developing Business Architecture
-
Provide experience-based insights in the context of the New York State Office of the State Comptroller
