Abstract

As we have argued in previous chapters, organisational effectiveness cannot be achieved through local optimisations, but is realised by well-orchestrated interaction of organisational components (Nadler et al. 1992). To create such an integrated perspective of enterprise architecture, we need both a description technique for architectural models and model-based analysis techniques to realise this global optimisation in practice.
