SysFEAT - Systemic Framework for Enterprise Architecture & Transformation

CLASS OF INDIVIDUAL - Enduring Initiative

Description

Abstract Concept

An Enduring Initiative is a long term Initiative which involves roadmapping and governance. Enterprises and their Management Systems are typical Enduring Initiatives.

1. Enduring Initiatives are purpose-oriented.

2. Enduring Initiatives are change management systems: they have objectives regarding the purposes they pursue, maintain and develop.

3. Enduring Initiatives are measured to ensure they meet their Goals.

4. Enduring Initiatives are organized according to subsidiary levels, ensuring autonomy and ownership at each level of delegation while providing responsibility and accountability in achieving common goals.

5. Enduring Initiatives are under the control of an associed Governing Team.

6.Governing Teams have instruments used to carry out governance: responsibility assignment, assessments, workflow, decision records, incident records.

Functional Domain: Initiative and Transformation Pattern

The Initiative and Transformation Pattern domain defines management concepts required for transformation initiatives.

Dependency Relationship	[1..1]	Entity	Entity	A Dependency Relationship is a Relationship that specifies the existential dependency of the sourceRelationship on its target Relationship.The cardinality to the target Entity is [1..1].
Hierarchical Member	[*..0]	Building Block	Aggregate Block	A Hierarchical Member is an Aggregate Member that is also a Block Lexical Scope for the Building Block it aggregates: it relates its aggregated block by nesting (see Nesting Relationship).Hierarchical Members are used to build hierarchical structures of Building Blocks, in constrast to Block Members which are used to build network structures of Building Blocks.
Block Member	[*..0]	Building Block	Aggregate Block	A Block Member is an Aggregate Member that aggregates its releated Building Block by reference (see Referencing Relationship).Block Members are used to build network structures of Building Blocks while Hierarchical Members are used to build hierarchical structures of Building Blocks.
