Issue 10091: BMM: Kaplan-Norton Perspectives (bmm-ftf) Source: Essence Networks (Mr. Nitish Verma, nitish@loka.net) Nature: Uncategorized Issue Severity: Summary: Summary: I have been following progress of BRG and have incorporated several of their concepts in my work. I consider this a very important direction in Enterprise Architecture. I would like to propose that you consider the addition of Kaplan-Norton perspectives in the motivational model. The rationale for this is: WHY: · Encourage measurement of intangible assets: Enterprise Architecture is a discipline that grows intangible assets and in he minds of its customers, must explicitly model non-financial motivations together with financial ones. · Align with world standards in measurement of strategy/capability · By explicitly modeling Kaplan-Norton Perspectives this effort is more likely to gain support and recognition of international business measurement standards and best practices : Baldridge Criteria, for instance. This type of model can best succeed in an environment that encourages excellence and leadership. Incorporating Kaplan-Norton perspectives will provide that common paradigm for communicating this. · Balanced Scorecard models using Kaplan-Norton perspectives lend themselves to formal modeling of this nature. I recommend the core concept of 'VALUE' to model this. The introduction of 'VALUE' in this manner will facilitate 'value streaming' analysis: Porter et al, Lean Thinking etc. Resolution: Recommendation from Dec 2005 BMI meeting was to leave this as an option for vendors to add to tools. Revised Text: None Disposition: Open Resolution: closed no change Revised Text: Actions taken: August 7, 2006: received issue January 15, 2008: closed issue Discussion: Discussion Clause 1.5 of the BMM Specification says "It is important to note that the Business Motivation Model is not in any sense a methodology. Indeed, it is entirely neutral with respect to methodology or particular approach." This is reinforced in clauses 7.5.2 and 7.5.3 which emphasize that organizations can use the BMM in different ways, with different methodologies and tools.

I would support the latter since this seems a very common need so why not address it in an interoperable manner which does not have a large impact on the spec? I'm also not clear whether the issue is claiming that 'Value' meets the need of 'perspective' in KN, or is it asking for two separate things?
