Abstract:
This paper presents an approach to increase the value gained from enterprise modelling activities in an organisation, both on a project and on an organisational level. The main objective of the approach is to facilitate awareness of, communication about, and coordination of modelling initiatives between stakeholders and within and across projects, over time. The first version of the approach as a normative process model is presented and discussed in the context of case projects and activities, and we conclude that although work remains both on sophistication of the approach and on validation of its general applicability and value, our results so far show that it addresses recognised challenges in a useful way.
