Enterprise Architecture Management (EAM) platforms help to align an organization’s strategy with its technology infrastructure. Ultimately, it enables better decision-making and fosters innovation by providing a clear overview of the enterprise’s capabilities and resources.
EAXplorer® is the EAM platform made by architects who noticed there was a lack of supply on the market and started shaping their own EAM platform.
“We have observed that current EA tools on the market do not adequately support architects and decision-makers in performing their roles effectively.”
We have observed that current EA tools on the market do not adequately support architects and decision-makers in performing their roles effectively. As architects, our experience with numerous EAM platforms has often resulted in significant effort yielding minimal outcomes. In the best-case scenario, the project might break-even compared to the effort that is put into them and the value that they deliver.
Multiple EAM platforms are too expensive, too complex, incomplete,… and as a result architectural information is scattered across multiple tools.
EAXplorer® aims to make a difference. How can we realize an architecture repository servicing both architects and decision-makers?
Implementing a lean and mean approach
By decreasing your lead time to build an EAM capability, you lower the risk and initial cost.
EAXplorer® aims to bring value in the shortest time possible, by offering a structured approach to building your architecture repository. With the built-in EAM reports, you gain insights already at the start.
You have the possibility to expand the information in your repository tailored to your needs. This is also why EAXplorer® offers freedom in the drawing tool as an addendum to the structured approach.
Common understanding and collaboration
By ensuring accessibility for all members of the organization, EAXplorer® facilitates a shared and up-to-date understanding of the IT technology landscape.
To accommodate non-architects, the user experience is optimized for ease of use, featuring a flat learning curve and an ‘explain this architecture to me‘ function.
Architects can collaborate in real-time, thanks to a two-way synchronization between the repository and the architecture drawing tool, ensuring EAXplorer® aligns with architects’ preferences.
