ArchiMate® Case Study

Introduction:

The right Enterprise Architecture (EA) can enable a manufacturer to improve operational efficiency and reduce risks while increasing customer satisfaction. EA development uses principles, methods, and models for the design and realization of organizational structure, business processes, information systems, and infrastructure. This Case Study illustrates the value of the ArchiMate 2.1 modeling language [1] for EA development and implementation within ArchiMetal, a fictitious metal parts manufacturer. It primarily illustrates the Business and Application core layers of the ArchiMate language, along with its two extensions: Motivation and Implementation and Migration.
