Enterprise Architecture Case Study - 29
This is a UK based publisher and conference company, with offices in more than 43 countries. The company is listed on the London Stock Exchange and is a constituent of the FTSE 250 Index.
The Business Challenge
The organization wanted to consolidate their IT in order to provide shared services to different business units. Their internal EA practices were being sponsored by the global CIO, so they needed to show results in a short timeframe.
The Solution
The business chose to implement iServer, using its TOGAF® based EA repository to consolidate and manage EA information in ArchiMate Notation that was being developed by each of the Business Units.
Why iServer?
iServer’s simplicity and Visio base allowed the company's business units to get to grips with Enterprise Architecture without worrying about the implementation of the tool – they were able to focus on the real task in hand.
