Learn to build a baseline capability map view for the issuance enterprise and bulk load 42 capability elements using rq2’s export-import workflow, while managing unique IDs and element relations.

Learn to cross-map value streams with business capabilities in ArchiMate 3.2/3.3, using the value stream viewpoint and serving relationships to connect product, marketing, and customer capabilities.

Build a baseline ArchiMate business function view, mapping functions to organizational actors, and linking marketing, underwriting, actuarial, sales, and finance to support claims, policy, and document processing.

Learn to model a capability realization view in ArchiMate by mapping business functions to business capabilities, using baseline and partial realizations, with claims handling, underwriting, and policy relationships.

Explore building two Archimate views for a business process—business events and processes—using triggers, junctions, and explicit approved or not approved outcomes in a policy and claim scenario.

Explore how a value stream is realized by three linked business processes, joined by a junction to show the data value stream and manager policy, realizing claims in ArchiMate.

Explore how to model the partial requirements realization view in Archimate, mapping business processes, application services, and technology artifacts across layers to realize key requirements.

Demonstrates a capability gap analysis using figure 19, adding color coding to distinguish new versus baseline capabilities and creating digital channel management, data acquisition, and data analysis gaps.

Map and realize capabilities using a resource map view, detailing resource elements and assignment relationships (one-to-one, one-to-many, many-to-one) to realize capabilities with CRM automation and data analysis in rq2.

Explore the resource realization view as the target in the ArchiMate model, linking resources across business, application, and technology layers to capabilities and lower-layer elements.

Phase B covers an ontology-based ArchiMate business layer metamodel, using RDF and a reasoner to explore asserted and inferred relationships across strategy, capability, value stream, and business service.

Model the phase C information system architecture baseline application cooperation view in Archimate to compare post-merger application and data layer states, including CRM, contact center, and document management.

This lecture guides creating the target application corporation view for figure 23, transforming front office into a post-merger back-office suite with auto underwriting, policy administration, claims, and a data warehouse.

Model the ArchiMate application usage view baseline to map a business process with five activities to application services and components, showing triggering sequences and serving relations across the application layer.

Model the ArchiMate application behavior view target by mapping business processes, functions, and objects to data flows across technology, application, and data layers in a data warehousing context.

Learn how to perform a gap analysis on application architecture by contrasting baseline and target views, using heat map color coding to highlight changes and maintain traceability.

Explore the information structure view of business objects in ArchiMate, modeling data objects and the data dissemination diagram across the application and business layers, and compare aggregation, composition, and specialization.

Explore figure 28 data dissemination diagram and map business objects to application layer data objects, demonstrating how data objects, business service, and application components realize data flow and business value.

Explore technology architecture in ArchiMate, modeling the baseline technology view with locations, network, devices, artifacts, and services, and prepare for target views and gap analysis.

Explore the technology view target, detailing baseline changes, the home and away headquarter setup, a larger shared service center, data management and backup servers, and IoT data acquisition.

Explores modeling the target data acquisition from IoT services, detailing a data acquisition gateway that connects IoT devices to support data driven insurance within a digital customer intimacy strategy.

Explore figure 32, detailing IoT device services and the data acquisition gateway. Understand the REST API, technology interfaces, and grouping for device registration, operation, and notification services.

Perform a technology architecture gap analysis comparing baseline and target, using color-coded legends to identify deltas and add missing elements like data acquisition gateway and document management backup server.

Model the migration view in ArchiMate, outlining baseline and target architectures with transitions a, b, and c. Highlight migration planning for an enterprise wide crm and back office systems.
