Use Forrester's Business Architecture Framework To Structure Your BA Approach

Business architecture has been part of the enterprise architecture (EA) model from the beginning. It has also been the least well-defined and understood component of the four fundamental elements of EA: business, information, application, and infrastructure architectures. Business architects are struggling with defining their role, their deliverables, and their value proposition. Often, they create their definition of business architecture from a technology-centric perspective that doesn't resonate with business leaders. In this report, Forrester defines business architecture in the context of its goals and establishes a framework to structure what it produces.
