Identifying and Assessing Motivations
It is the stakeholders who identify the motivations of the transformation project and link them to the elements of the enterprise architecture.
*A stakeholder is an internal or external person or person group with a defined role in the enterprise.
There are various types of drivers:
*A business driver is an expectation expressed by a client, a partner or provider with respect to the enterprise.
*A regulatory driver is guided by a change in the regulation framework to which it makes reference.
*An architectural driver is guided by a specific characteristic or an internal architectural building block. This characteristic can represent a strength or a weakness
*For more details on transformation drivers, see Handling transformation drivers.
The SWOT assessment (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, Threats or Forces) of drivers is possible within the framework of a strategy assessment.
This assessment makes it possible to identify the relevant transformation objectives periodically throughout the duration of the transformation project.
