Enterprise representation
Describe the capabilities, processes and other objects relevant to the question.
Enterprise Digital Twin
How can enterprise relationships and dependencies be explored?
Represent enterprise capabilities, processes and relationships to support architectural understanding and potential simulation.
When this is useful
Use an enterprise digital twin concept when connected views of the enterprise would help examine dependencies or compare a proposed change.
How it fits in the portfolio
EDT is an enabler described in AEAF and a conceptual capability in the AMIGOS vision.
What it covers
Relationships & dependencies
Connect the model to ownership, context and supporting evidence.
Scenario exploration
Define and validate any simulation assumptions before relying on results.
Improving an order-reconciliation handoff.
Map the order, inventory and finance dependencies affected by the handoff before defining any scenario simulation.
What an agreed engagement can produce
A scoped enterprise model, relationship views and a separately defined scenario or simulation validation plan.
Limits
A diagram or reference model does not establish a synchronized live twin, predictive accuracy or a deployed simulation service.
Documented methods and designs don't by themselves show that software is available or that outcomes have been measured.
Start with a real business need.
Connect the method to the workflow, capability or decision you want to improve.
