Abstract

Value Streams with supporting Capability Maps are a popular
trend in modern enterprise architecture design. However, the existing
definition of a capability as a collection of selected functionality is
imprecise and often results in unmanageable capabilities and capability
maps. Conceptual and process models, which are traditionally used to
select functionality for system modules are considered too detailed at
the strategic level, where capabilities are represented. This paper defines
requirements and constraints for manageable capabilities and capability
maps. The paper also proposes a method for the design of manageable
capabilities and capability maps. This method employs the definition of
requirements and constraints, as well as protocol modeling, to achieve
this goal. Protocol models of capabilities are defined at the level of business
objects and functionality chunks. The composition technique inherent
to protocol modeling allows for the seamless movement of business
objects and functional chunks between capabilities, thus facilitating the
design of a manageable capability map. Furthermore, all protocol models
of capabilities and capability maps can be simulated. The simulation
process enables the identification of unmanageable and missing capabilities
within a capability map. The proposed method can be employed as
a reference for the design of manageable capability maps.
