    The business processes of the organization and its productivity have begun to include an architectural vision of commercial change, so that the business core and the IT area work perfectly to meet the business objectives. Architecture has always played a role in systems development.As applications and systems increased in number and complexity, the need for a clear and consistent view of the entire image, along with an integration approach structure, became apparent. Gradually, the term architecture was extended to include all the areas involved; initially from technical infrastructure to information systems, and then to information, processes and businesses.Los procesos de negocio de la organizaci贸n y la productividad de esta, ha comenzado a incluir una visi贸n arquitect贸nica del cambio comercial, por lo que el core empresarial y el 谩rea de IT funcionan a la perfecci贸n para cumplir los objetivos del negocio. La arquitectura siempre ha jugado un papel en el desarrollo de sistemas. A medida que las aplicaciones y los sistemas aumentaron en n煤mero y complejidad, la necesidad de una vista clara y consistente de la imagen completa, junto con una estructura enfoque de integraci贸n, se hizo evidente. Poco a poco, el t茅rmino arquitectura se extendi贸 para incluir todas las 谩reas involucradas; inicialmente desde t茅cnico infraestructura para sistemas de informaci贸n, y luego hacia informaci贸n, procesos y negocios

    Thesis (S.M. in Technology and Policy)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Engineering Systems Division, Technology and Policy Program; and, (S.M.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Aeronautics and Astronautics, 2009.Cataloged from PDF version of thesis.Includes bibliographical references (p. 148-161).The objective of this thesis is to depict the role of metrics in the evolving journey of enterprise transformation. To this end, three propositions are explored: (i) metrics and measurement systems drive transformation, (ii) employee engagement is a proxy to gauge transformation progress; and (iii) metric considerations enable enterprise transformation when systematically executed as part of a transformation roadmap. To explore this problem, the aerospace measurement community was consulted to help grasp a better understanding of the context in which transformation is currently defined and measured. Once the problem space was defined, the environment of doing research with the enterprise as the unit of analysis was described with the intent of exploring the role of metrics and transformation. In particular, the performance measurement literature helped identify tools and methods used to select metrics to enable decision making at the enterprise level. After this review, two case studies were performed, considering: (1) the implementation of a bottom-up measurement system to drive transformation and (2) the effect of a top-down corporate measurement system on the enterprise. The first case study revealed insights regarding the benefits and challenges of implementing measurement systems and highlighted the use of employee engagement as a proxy to measure enterprise transformation. In the second case study, contemporary measurement issues were discussed and mapped to an Eight Views of the Enterprise analysis to identify critical enterprise interactions.(cont.) Ultimately, the Lean Advancement Initiative's Enterprise Transformation Roadmap was used as a method for depicting how performance measurement can help enable enterprise transformation. The implications of research in metrics for enterprise transformation span across thee areas: (1) the extensive literature reviews provide an academic contribution for performing enterprise and measurement research; (2) a common language and framework for exploring measurement problems is depicted for practitioners through the case study analysis; and (3) a connection between enterprise measurement and enterprise transformation is established to drive future transformation success.by Craig D.
