- What
are the benefits of adopting Proact?
Enterprise
Agility. In today's dynamic business environment, it is impossible
to plan and predict the future.
- How,
then, does an enterprise prepare to react to changing and unpredictable
market and economic conditions, new product opportunities, systems
and technology opportunities, etc.?
By
using the Proact Toolkit to identify and define the complete set
of enterprise capabilities as modular service components of the
business that can be developed, reconfigured, scaled up (or down)
as required. These enterprise capabilities are independent of
organizational silos and politics, providing strategists, architects,
and planners the means to drive for high performance across the
enterprise, regardless of the shifting set of strategic business
drivers.
Building
and implementing new or improved capabilities, adjusting business
volumes, and integrating with new partners or acquisitions is
greatly facilitated through common views of these building blocks
and through reusing solution components. In other words, Better,
Faster, Cheaper projects.
- What
results can the IT organization expect to see? When?
The
results will become apparent at the outset and over time. Our
customers initially experience a startling alignment of internal
communications from business to IT and continue with the fundamental
insight that accelerates their migration strategy towards
target architecture.
- What
are the potential impediments to implementing Proact successfully?
Proact is intended to break down the silos that so often exist across enterprise planning groups. The greatest challenge to fully implementing the Proact model-based planning methodology is to gain the support and collaboration from all of these groups, including strategic business planners, organizational developers, process designers, systems and technology planners and architects as well as executive leadership to provide overall sponsorship.
