Every organisation relies on technology to deliver its services. But how do you know which technology you actually need? And how do you make sure today’s investments support where your organisation needs to be tomorrow?

Enterprise Architecture helps organisations answer these questions by connecting business needs, technology, architecture and implementation.

In this practical webinar, our TOGAF® trainer Joost Bertrem will introduce the role of Enterprise Architecture and show how TOGAF® can help organisations optimise fragmented environments, align change with strategic direction and create a clear roadmap from the current state to the future state.

We will look at how Enterprise Architecture can help organisations connect strategy, business, data, technology and investments, while creating an integrated environment that supports the delivery of business strategy and remains responsive to change.

We have also invited Nicolas Despontin, an Enterpise Architect, who has recently followed a TOGAF® course with QRP International and applied Enterprise Architecture in practice. He will share his experience, challenges he faced and how eventually he has translated the principles into their organisation.

From current state to future state: creating an enterprise roadman

Enterprise Architecture provides a view of the organisation that helps manage complexity, support continuous change and manage the risks of unintended consequences.

By describing both the current state and the desired future state, organisations can identify the gaps between them and create an enterprise roadmap to guide the change.

During the session, we will explore how Enterprise Architecture can help:

  • Link strategy, business, data, technology and investments
  • Optimise fragmented legacy processes and technologies into a more integrated environment
  • Combine legacy environments with emerging technologies and new opportunities
  • Align change activities with the strategic direction of the organisation
  • Identify the optimal path to realise expected value
  • Create a roadmap from the current state to the future state

Real-life case: From training to implementation

Theory is only useful when it can be applied.

To demonstrate what this looks like in practice, we have invited a professional who recently followed a TOGAF® course with QRP International to share his experience.

The practical case he will share, will provide an opportunity to see how the concepts discussed during the webinar can translate into real organisational change.

Speaker

Joost Bertrem – Consultant Service Management and Enterprise Architecture & ITIL and TOGAF® Trainer.

Joost helps organisations adapt to change and move from strategy to sustainable implementation. He has extensive experience in service management and enterprise architecture, with a strong focus on creating practical solutions that deliver value.

Why Attend?

Technology investments can be significant, complex and difficult to reverse. Enterprise Architecture provides a way to make those decisions with a clearer view of the organisation’s needs, its current environment and its future direction.

By taking a holistic view across the enterprise, EA can help organisations move beyond fragmented processes and technology towards an integrated environment that supports business strategy and enables continuous change.

  • Expert: Serge Schiltz – President of ecoHERMES,
    Claudia Kary – Associate Professor Business School Lausanne,
    Consultant and Assessor for Project Management
  • Date: Thursday 27 May 2021
  • Time: 12h00
  • Duration: + 30 minutes of presentation
    + 30 minutes for your questions/comments
  • Language: English
  • Inscription: Free

In 2019 the master’s students of the Business School of Lausanne under the management of their professor, Claudia Kary, executed a survey in the hospital sector that revealed a close correlation between the existence of a Project Management standard within an organisation and their level of maturity.

PRINCE2 and Hermes were the two standards mostly used by Swiss hospitals. Hospitals, which used either standard as their project management backbone had a higher overall maturity than those not applying any standard.

A follow-on online workshop with several hospitals after the first wave of the pandemic furthermore revealed changed needs in project management. Because of the necessity to react quickly, organisations adopted agile ways of working.
However, not being able to work in close contact with your colleagues was named as a big obstacle in “agile” projects.

In line with these events, QRP, in association with ecoHermes and Claudia Kary, decided to organize a further online event. The event aims to present the main points of the survey and workshop, focusing mainly on the HERMES methodology, and to create a space where professionals have the opportunity to give their own personal contributions.

 

About the event

We invited a group of experts to discuss Project Management related topics.
The event is divided into three pillars:

1. Survey & Workshop Outcomes – about 20 minutes
Presentation of the outcomes of the survey and workshops, covering the topics of project management maturity in relation to methodologies such as HERMES before and during the pandemic period

2. Panel Discussion – about 30 minutes
Free space dedicated to questions, comments and topics proposed by attendees.

3. ProfeoMAS – about 10 minutes
How a Project Management maturity assessment can support you in identifying adequate actions to further improve your project management.

 

Why attend this event?

In this webinar, you will learn about the impact that the application of HERMES or PRINCE2 has on the success of projects. A survey conducted in the Swiss health sector before the occurrence of the COVID-19 pandemic, combined with a recent follow-up illustrates how crucial project management capabilities are in times of crisis.

You will learn how a project management maturity assessment is applied to an organization and how you can improve processes based on collected data and expertise from specialists in the field.

There will be room for intense discussions after the two presentations. Contribute with your experience of the last year of the pandemic, discuss with professionals in your field and get interesting insights into how methodologies can help your daily work and project management.
