An Applied Mathematical Model for Business Transformation and Enterprise Architecture: The Holistic Organizational Intelligence and Knowledge Management Pattern's Integration (HOI&KMPI)

Introduction

Enterprise or organization/business architecture serves as a methodology and framework to provide the link between the organizational requirements/objectives, intelligence/knowledge and its organizational characteristics/structures; using avantgarde technologies and the underlined business services, in order to attain the defined organizational intelligence/knowledge collective support, the author proposes the Business Engineering and Risk Management Pattern’s Integration (HOI&KMPI) that is based on a previous version of a similar pattern (Chang, Abdel-Basset, & Ramachandran, 2019). Business Transformation Managers (or simply Managers) often underestimate to develop a robust organizational collective intelligence/knowledge patterns and a corresponding organizational transformation plan for their future organization/business system. This reflects in their incapacity to manage various transformation artefacts needed for the integration of the new organization/business systems. This article’s aim is to influence the attitude of Manager regarding a coordinated organization/business organizational and Enterprise Architecture (EA) transitions. To achieve this article’s goal, the author offers to Managers or organizational change officers’ efficient managerial and technical recommendations and an HOI&KMPI concept that would cover the organization/business scope and objectives, without incurring high production, maintenance and implementation costs.

The HOI&KMPI; which describes the usage/instantiation of the HOI&KMPB. Which makes these two articles bounded and should read together (Trad, 2019b). This article’s purpose is to deliver HOI&KMPI recommendations and is a part of a long series of articles on Business Transformation Projects (Project) and Enterprise Architecture Projects (EAP) (or simply Projects) that deal with the organizational changes and transformations (Tidd, & Bessant, 2018). The Research Development Project (RDP) is based on literature review, a qualitative methodology and on a proof of concept used to prove the related hypotheses. The implementation of such HOI&KMPI requires the knowledge of a large set of technologies and standard methodologies. The author have based his RDP on the main fact that only around 12% of business organizations successfully terminate innovation-related business transformations projects (Tidd, 2006). The eventual successes of Projects depend on how organizations can adapt to Projects and dynamically change their organizational structures. Adapting just the underlined technologies is not enough and the main problem arises due to lack of business systems’ agility. Such an agility approach, as shown in Figure 1, can be built on basic elements called microartefacts (IMD, 2015).

Focus Of The Article

The HOI&KMPB and HOI&KMPI usages, simplify the Project’s feasibility and proposes recommendations that can be applied by Managers for decision making related organizational change management initiatives (Desmond, 2013). The HOI&KMPI, uses the CSA/CSF based HOI&KMPB is managed by the author’s Transformation and Architecture Development framework (TRADf) resources that is processed by the AHMM’s mixed methodology. This article’s research question is: “Can a holistic architecture pattern be applied to an intelligent organizational management systems and minimize the risks of failure ?”

Due to the complexity of the fields and their interaction in the form of a holistic framework, the author would like to advice the valuable reader to pay attention to the following:
