Bridging Business and IT

Business capabilities can be described as a way of creating a common language to improve cross-departmental understanding of your organization. They serve as a lens that helps answer a host of critical business questions, including:

  • Where do I need to invest in people and technology?
  • Where do I need to manage business and technology risk?
  • Where do I need to drive innovation, and where do I need to commoditize?
