Produktinformationen zu „Business Genetics “
In order to cope with the business complexity of the 21st century, we require a new way of thinking about and describing, how corporations function. A new business orientated methodology that is understood by everyone in the business community, not just the IT practitioners, must be established. The xBML - eXtended Business Modelling Language - is a rule based, synoptic and formal language used to describe business. It provides a unique capability to develop and leverage business models across a multitude of corporate initiatives, from business improvement, IT requirements definition and Sarbanes Oxley compliance to outsourcing, mergers and acquisitions.
Klappentext zu „Business Genetics “
This book will revolutionize the way you describe, plan and improve your business.Developed over thirty years and proven in over 500 projects within major organizations, xBML is the world's first scientific method for describing business. Using a system of diagrams based on an intuitive framework of five Ws (Who does What, with Which information, Where and When?), xBML gives companies a comprehensive view of their enterprise - one that depicts precisely the complex relationships between operations, information, resources and technology within a multi-dimensional model. In essence, it unlocks the genetic code of the organization. And, like a genetic code, this information can then be called upon repeatedly to describe, to plan and to improve.It's time to throw out the flow charts. The dream of accurately describing a business once, in terms that make sense to everyone, and then re-using this information time and again is at last a reality. xBML bridges the enterprise divide, providing the means for clear, concise communication between all members of an organization. Major companies have already saved over $2 billion using the approach, and thousands of individuals have been trained in the methodology. Read this book, and discover why unlocking your organization's Business Genetics will lead to quantifiable business improvement.
