The top five focus areas for 2025 business architecture priorities:

  1. Expanding how business architecture is used for value
  2. Socializing business architecture
  3. Establishing or enhancing business architecture governance
  4. Expanding the business architecture knowledge with cross-mappings to other disciplines
  5. Creating a new business architecture baseline

Here is a sample of the commentary:

  • Applying business architecture for a new business scenario: new business line development
  • Including external compliance and regulatory impact and requirements mapped to responsible capabilities
  • A core focus for my team this year is getting a seat at the right tables where strategy execution conversations are happening (or should be happening). We want to demonstrate how business architecture can be used to facilitate decisions that lead to the most value for our enterprise, as well as articulating the impacts of change, for better execution.
  • Current practice working at the execution end but pushing into strategy definition
  • Expanding the value of, establishing governance of, and socializing are linked together for us. We are focused on expanding the value of business architecture beyond our direct team into other areas, which require socializing and looking for early adopters that may also participate in the governance as well
