SysFEAT - Systemic Framework for Enterprise Architecture & Transformation

CLASS OF INDIVIDUAL - Enterprise Initiative

Description

Abstract Concept

An Enterprise Initiative is a past, current or future state of the enterprise.

Each stage represents an initiative comprising a purposeful set of activities whose primary purpose is focused on achieving a set of clearly defined objectives that may transcend organisational boundaries and consequently require integrated team working under the direction of an Architecture Governance Committee.

Structural Partition of Enterprise Initiative: an Enterprise Initiative is either an Enterprise Stage or an Enterprise

Functional Domain: Enterprise Strategy & Roadmapping

The Enterprise Strategy & Roadmapping domain supports the process of analysing and optimising the delivery of Enterprise Capability(ies) in line with the Enterprise market analysis and strategic intent.

Enterprise Course of Action	[*..0]	Individual Resource Behavior	Enterprise Initiative	Abstract Relationship A plan recognized by an enterprise as being essential to achieving its goals - i.e. a strategic specification of what the enterprise does. In other words, a Course of Action channels efforts towards Desired Results.Business Capabilities might be required by an Enterprise to conduct its Courses of Action.

Meronymy (Part Of)	[*..0]	Particular Entity	Particular Entity	Abstract Relationship Meronymy (Part Of) is a directional part-to-whole Relationship between Particular Entitys, where the source Particular Entity (the part) is defined has being part of a larger whole Particular Entity.In accordance with principles of Compositionality, Meronymy (Part Of) is not simply the inverse of Holonymy. In some cases, the whole Particular Entity is not inherently defined by some its parts. Location (Located at) and period relationships are such Meronymy (Part Of).Example:- William Shakespeare is born in Stratford-upon-Avon, but the Stratford-upon-Avon geo-location is not inherently defined by William Shakespeare. It is defined by its geophysical containers: Continent-Europe, Landmass-Great Britain.- William Shakespeare is born in 1564, but the year 1564 is not inherently defined by the birth of William Shakespeare. It is defined by its position in the Gregorian calendar and contains countless other global events.
Existential Dependency	[1..1]	Entity	Entity	Abstract Relationship An Existential Dependency relationship is a Relationship where the source Entitys existence depends on the existence of the target Entity.The cardinality of the set of targetted Entity is [1..1].
Hierarchical Member	[*..0]	Building Block	Aggregate Block	A Hierarchical Member is an Aggregate Member that is also a Block Lexical Scope for the Building Block it aggregates: it relates its aggregated block by nesting (see Nesting Relationship).Hierarchical Members are used to build hierarchical structures of Building Blocks, in constrast to Block Members which are used to build network structures of Building Blocks.
Block Member	[*..0]	Building Block	Aggregate Block	A Block Member is an Aggregate Member that aggregates its releated Building Block by reference (see Referencing Relationship).Block Members are used to build network structures of Building Blocks while Hierarchical Members are used to build hierarchical structures of Building Blocks.
