ArchiMate

We are member of the ArchiMate® Forum in The Open Group and are involved in the evolution of ArchiMate®. Through the practical use of ArchiMate® in various projects we speak from experience in our training courses.

As an internationally recognized standard for architecture modeling, ArchiMate® allows for the use of a common language for the description and visualization of architectures across different layers. In fact, ArchiMate® comprises business, application, and technology architecture elements, and complements this core with motivational and strategic elements like goals and capabilities, pyhsical elements like facilities and material, and, finally, adequate elements in the context of transformation planning (e.g., projects, gaps).
