Business Dependency ModellingUse Business Dependency Modelling to:
· determine the effects of change on other business processes during a Business Process Engineering (BPE) initiative,
· determine the dependency of a business or organization on its suppliers and other external entities (e.g., financial services, telecommunications services),
· determine the risk of exposure to your organization should the business of your suppliers (or other external entities) fail due to business problems such as failure to achieve legislative compliance.
Method
To develop a Business Dependency Model, the business must be thoroughly analyzed. The model is built by linking the technology components to the business components.
Identify the critical success factors for the business
Gather detailed information on hardware and software in use by the organization
Link the technology to the business
Determine the relationships and dependencies in the business
Analyze the dependencies and assess risks
Tips and Hints
A modelling tool is very helpful to complete this analysis. As a minimum requirement, a repository is required to store the information gathered in building the dependency model. Entering the data into a modelling tool allows for a detailed analysis of business scenarios.
