Enterprise Architecture in Agile Transformation («BPU»)

In this workshop you will design the transformation of a company with a project-oriented, phase-oriented approach into a company that works with agile product teams.

• Important characteristics of an efficient company 
• Identifying business processes as the basis for transformation 
• Eliciting IT systems and meaningful system functionalities from the business processes
