EA thus provides a map for those who want to change or understand the current business processes.

This creates a basis for a constructive dialogue at eye level. One of many reasons why Bee4IT’s EA has a strong adoption rate throughout the entire company and not just within the EA function.

Any changes made are then directly reflected in user enablement, because the view used for planning and change is the same view used in Bee4IT to drive change throughout the organization. For example, training materials are based directly on the architectural artefacts.
