This domain provides the processes, deliverables, and techniques to systematically identify, relate, and weave into the organization an optimal balance of the processes, people, information technology, and resources needed to implement new capabilities and achieve targeted business outcomes.

The Enterprise Architecture lifecycle is continuously evolving as capabilities are delivered incrementally though the Solution lifecycle processes.

Evolving the business capabilities is done by aligning two key perspectives:
  • Business: determining the changes required to the business operations to support the new capabilities, and guiding the structuring of the business to accommodate the current and emerging strategies.
  • Technology: defining the ICT infrastructures that are required by the new capabilities or that will act as a catalyst to stimulate new business opportunities.
