Maximize the value of your Enterprise Solution Architecture with our ESA Maturity Assessment
Discover how a higher overal ESA maturity level can maximize the value of your Enterprise Architecture and SAP landscape.
The ESA Maturity Assessment delivers a detailed analysis of your SAP architectural maturity level within the 9 ESA domains, including specific improvement opportunities. The ESA Maturity Assessment is covering 54 topics.
The ESA roadmap contains a balanced selection of E2E services to optimize the E2E business value and should be supported by Architecture Program management services to manage the implementation of the ESA roadmap.
ESA maturity model - 5 levels
The higher the ESA maturity level, the greater the benefits achieved through alignment, standardization, integration, governance, automation, and economies of scale. As organizations progress through the maturity levels, business processes become more consistent, information becomes more reliable, technology platforms become better integrated, and decision-making becomes increasingly E2E data-driven.
The ESA maturity levels are derived from the Capability Maturity Model Integration (CMMI) framework and adapted to evaluate the maturity of the nine ESA domains. Each level represents a higher degree of organizational capabilities, governance, collaboration, and business value realization.
Ideal for organizations looking to maximize the value of their SAP landscape
We start with an ESA maturity scoping and planning phase to identify the scope of the ESA maturity assessment.
We have executed ESA maturity assessments at e.g. ; Akzo, Heineken, Friesland Campina and created a blog which analyzes the maturity trends across (healtcare) industries and company sizes. (see our references)
The use the on-line ESA Maturity Check to get an indication of the current maturity level across the 9 Solution Domains.
We use the results of this on-line ESA maturity check to update our global ESA maturity report.
The maturity assessment will be using 6 additional questions for each domian en will require also some prepartuion of the participants.
ESA Business Value and Stakeholder Alignment
ESA business value is not determined by the sophistication of technology itself, but by its contribution to a higher overall alignment of the 9 domains and the value it delivers to support of stakeholder business objectives.
Each ESA domain area has its own stakeholder, with specific business goals, priorities, and success criteria. As a result, the value of Enterprise Solution Architecture should always be measured in terms of E2E business alignment and E2E outcomes rather than technical capabilities alone.
Within the ESA Framework the domain stakeholders must understand the objectives of every domain area. Alignment of stakeholder objectives is essential for determining the target company maturity level and evaluating the business value delivered by ESA maturity assessent.
Why Our ESA Maturity Assessment Is Unique
Our ESA Maturity Assessment is unique because it combines broad expertise in SAP solution capabilities, Enterprise Architecture (EA), and IT Service Management (ITSM).
By leveraging this synergy we provide a holistic and in-depth assessment of your current maturity level across the ESA Framework.
We have a track record (see our maturity report) of successful online ESA maturity checks and company maturity assessments (see our references).
Our ESA Maturity Assessment evaluates how your SAP landscape, architectural governance, and IT service management capabilities work together to support stakeholder objectives and drive sustainable business outcomes.
