Justify The Value Of Achieving Sustainable Business Agility

This report outlines the business impact of Forrester's solution for enterprise architecture (EA) executives who want to enhance their current EA method to address both agility and costs at the same time, i.e., support both innovation and continuous optimization. As businesses become more digital, both business and IT have to become more agile together. Agility is not just about fast execution — in fact, execution that is fast but poorly conceived makes a firm less agile. Sustainable business agility requires a new approach to how you assess, plan, architect, and implement change. Forrester's Business-Centered Enterprise Architecture (BCEA) is a set of high-value methods and models that EA practices should use to nurture greater agility for their business. This report describes the business value that BCEA provides through new EA practices.
