Visual Modelling Services

Selection of the right tools for the job can make or break a project, empower or depress an IT shop. While Gartner Magic Quadrant provides good assessment of the overall capabilities of tools and [specifically] vendors, they say nothing about what can a particular tool can do to your initiative. At the same time, your objective is not to buy the shiniest product on the market, but to deliver better solutions with less costs and risks. Business Abstraction has wast experience with various tools, as well as practice-proven methodology of designing the overall tools implementations. The methodology addresses specifics of the project[s], existing skills and types of the workforce, expected and required benefits etc.

When no Solution Architect of required qualification is available to the project, searching for a suitable contract Architect and then engaging Business Abstraction to train them can be sub-optimal both in terms of costs and time. Delegating Solution Architecture to Business Abstraction can prove more effective.

Changing business environment applies Darwinian pressure of enterprises, while public service is likely to come under increasing pressure to implement support for more and more policy changes as politicians are looking for solutions. Agility is the order of the day, and some system just cannot do it. As many old core systems cannot be maintained as experience developers retire, and young talent hardly can be enticed to learn, say, COBOL. Many enterprises will have to replace their core systems, and replacing them with the systems that are hard to modify will be inconceivable. Business Abstraction developed and applied approach that allows explicit re-design for agility.

This service is designed for enterprises with $50 million – $500 million revenue that significantly rely on proprietary computational capabilities. Many companies like that grew up their IT ad-hoc in response to business demands. However at some stage an enterprise like that can hit the wall, where the complexity of processing can no longer be handled by the initial creator, even if the one still leading it.

Business Abstraction offers cost-conscious exercise designed to retain all the advantages and achievements of existing applications, while delivering the agility and scalability of service orientation. Several of our past clients were provided with this type of service, in each cases enabling significant expansion while improving clarity and control over Application Architecture and applications-related projects.

Business Motivation Model captures the ends and means of the enterprise strategy. It is produced in collaboration with people familiar with thinking at the board/policy level, and in some cases verified by high-level executives directly reporting to the head of modeled enterprise or Business Unit.
