Integrated Capability Analysis • Ensure target business capabilities cover process improvement priorities • Translate business capabilities into required infrastructure capabilities • Assess current infrastructure maturity • Determine gaps to target infrastructure • Build a road map for integrated capabilities and solution implementation • Specify required architecture, technologies, and services • Baseline road map for integrated capabilities

Note to presenter: This is a template. Prune, add, and prioritize per BDM and TDM feedback. Ensure consistency with the “Business Discussion Guide” and the “Capability Discussion Guide”. Integrated Capability Support for Priority Business Capabilities

Sophistication of the Solution PARTICIPATE IN BUSINESS OPPORTUNITIES THAT SUSTAIN THE ENVIRONMENT REDUCE THE CARBON FOOTPRINT BY MINIMIZING THE ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT OF TECHNOLOGY Phase 1 Provides basic support for the most critical elements of the business driver RESPOND TO CONSUMER EXPECTATIONS THAT INDUSTRIES TAKE A HOLISTIC APPROACH TO SUSTAINING THE ENVIRONMENT MEASURE AND TRACK INTERNAL RESOURCES AND ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT GOALS Phase 2 Provides adequate, typical support for critical and priority elements of the business driver NORMALIZE CORPORATE COMPLIANCE WITH EXTERNAL ENVIRONMENTAL REGULATIONS SUPPORT CREATION, MANAGEMENT, AND MONITORING OF COMPLIANCE FRAMEWORKS Phase 3 Provides thorough, streamlined support for the business driver that enables differentiated levels of performance

Solution Guidance PHASE DEFINITION PHASE DEFINITION MAPPING MAPPING CONCEPTUAL ARCHITECTURE CONCEPTUAL ARCHITECTURE LOGICAL ARCHITECTURE LOGICAL ARCHITECTURE TECHNOLOGIES TECHNOLOGIES Phase Definition For each business driver, list the business challenges, solution features, and business benefits for this solution phase. Use this information and the “Integrated Capability Support for Priority Business Capabilities” slides to structure the conversation with IT professional(s) for capturing, refining, and baselining business problems and solution functionality priorities. • Mapping • The Optimization mapping indicates the maturity level required for each capability to fully support the features specified in this solution phase. Use the mapping as a starting point to determine appropriate maturity levels for the solution. After mapping the solution, assess the gap between the current and desired infrastructure to: • Understand the scope and sequencing of work required • Organize a deployment road map Technologies Use the results of the Optimization mapping to determine the technologies required for the features and supporting capabilities specified in this solution phase. Conceptual Architecture Use this high-level, use case diagram to provide the “black box” definition of this solution phase. Customize to your solution definition during the integrated capability analysis. Logical Architecture Use this logical, component-level architecture view to show all software components and how they interact to support this solution phase. Tailor to fit your particular solution definition during the integrated capability analysis. Note: Physical architecture is covered in the Architecture Guide also used during the integrated capability analysis.

Example: Steps to Customize the Solution Customize the pre-defined solutions (Phase 1, Phase 2, or Phase 3) by doing the following: • Understand your priorities • Choose a starting point • Adjust the mapping Identify your top-priority business drivers Identify the business capabilities in the Capability Discussion Guide that match your priorities (see below) Choose the phase (Phase 1, Phase 2, or Phase 3) that corresponds to your priorities Add, remove, or adjust capabilities

Example: Customized Solution Requirements

Example: Tips to Customize the Solution Consider using an alternate maturity level that corresponds to your requirements Keep a capability if you are unsure whether you need it  Identify, document, and discuss how a capability may be relevant
