The Hopex IT Business Management method
The method described in this guide is represented in the steps below.
Identifying Strategic Transformation Elements
This step consists in defining the enterprise transformation goals and identifying the associated means (Strategies and tactics) to be implemented. The means are specified in the enterprise transformation stages.
*For more details about exhibited business capabilities, see Identifying Exhibited Business Capabilities.
 
Value Streams and Business Capabilities description
This step consists in drawing up the elements that provide value to the enterprise (using value streams) and how the enterprise can deliver those elements (using business capabilities). For a business capability, you can identify the associated functionalities and the components that implement them.
*For more details on this step, see Describing the Enterprise Capabilty for Creating value.
Each transformation stage highlights Exhibited Business Capabilities.
*A Business Capability is exhibited by an Enterprise Stage with quantified measure (KPI) and potential geopolitical scope (Site) for a defined market segment (Business Partner).
An exhibited capability represents a capability state during a transformation stage. It can have specific measurable properties, used to assess business value and performance.
Example: for a delivery capability, the "delivery time" expressed in minutes is of particular interest.
Characteristics of an exhibited capability are valid only during the transformation stage (assessment values, implementing agents), allowing to check and analyze their evolution over time.

Defining the enterprise architectures
This work, performed during the transformation stages, can be done using Hopex IT Business Management with other Enterprise Architecture solutions. This consists of identifying and describing the solution building blocks that contribute to the exhibited business capabilities implementation. The additional solutions of the Hopex platform are used to describe in more detail your models (organizational, application and technological solution building blocks).
