Enterprise Architecture: Idea Generation for IT Transformation Projects

The author will review an approach for idea generation in an enterprise to identify transformational projects to be undertaken by IT. The approach will highlight how business and IT need to be very closely involved in the ideation process, and that this process functions best when enabled by well defined and agreed enterprise architecture guiding principles and effective technology roadmaps. A case study will also be briefly discussed.
