We would start with a brief overview of the history of ADONIS and ADOIT at Novartis – how it all started, what were the strategic decisions behind this investment, etc. We will focus on the implementation and usage (digital transformation initiatives) of both tools within the Novartis ecosystem. Here, we would be discussing how ADONIS and ADOIT are used alongside other key platforms at Novartis. Last but not least, we will share our plans about the long-term outlook for the usage of these tools.

What does it take to combine architectural ways of working with scaled agile development across a federated, IT operating model? How can you support a Strategy-to-Execution value chain with guidance across target and transition architectures, founded on the current architecture state? In this session, we’ll describe the core of our approach with ADOIT – the Architecture Repository – and how we integrated this across such disciplines as strategies, investment planning, agile development, information management etc.

Christelle Mekuate, the Digital Architect at the ESCP Business School, explains how she used ADOIT to create best practices for accelerating digital transformation projects. She discusses her strategy for building up a repository, provides insights into her main challenges, and shares lessons from some interesting quick wins.

While initially focused on APM, Mr. Veera Kanithi and his team have managed to get control of the application landscape and shed light on business dependencies that exist across capabilities, processes, and data. Grace leverages an experienced team based in India (Offshore). Mastering this de-centralized approach took some work, a stable way of working has been reached and Grace is now expanding into new areas of EA.

Allianz Technology is a global IT service provider supporting more than 60 Allianz Group companies worldwide. Our services are used 24/7 to support customers and compete in an increasingly digital business environment. Thus, we don’t only need to be fast in restoring disrupted services, but also work effectively with customers to develop new ones to optimize their business. In our session, you’ll learn how the IT4IT framework helped us gain a holistic, end2end view, and allowed us to focus more on the data flow, rather than just process activities.

“Build an EA repository!” they said, “it will solve all your problems and provide all the answers”… In this session, you will hear about Molson Coors’ journey to build the repository with its starts, stops, and re-starts. Mr. Paul Jakubowski will discuss their experiences and lessons learned in how ADOIT enabled Molson Coors to develop a repository that supports application portfolio rationalization, understanding of various business capabilities, and autonomous development through standard management.

Viña Concha y Toro is Latin America’s leading wine producer, currently exporting to 140 countries worldwide. Running such a large operation means that EA needs to be at the top of its game. Concha y Toro began their EA journey in 2018 and soon after, introduced ADOIT for the formalization of this initiative. Mr. Cristian Becerra will tell us about his experiences of implementing EA in a traditional industry where, historically, innovations have been introduced without necessarily keeping IT and AE in mind – which originally led to the elements being duplicated and not integrated with the core architecture, resulting in higher administration and control efforts.

Technological developments and societal changes, impacting our environment under the key term “Digital Transformation”, led to digital approaches making an important contribution to supporting communication, collaboration, information acquisition and interactions between stakeholders, thereby enabling the development of innovative business models. Artificial intelligence, as an area of computer science, offers concepts that have now become feasible as applications rely on technological advances in the domains infrastructure, communication or cloud and offer promising potentials in the realization of digital transformation activities. The lecture also introduces results of experiments run in a university setting, so that the interrelations between innovation, digital transformation, and artificial intelligence during realization of selected scenarios are illustrated.

Our goal is one common BPM Methodology based on an Enterprise Process House. To enable this transformation, we started leveraging ADONIS beyond the boundaries of BPM and implemented a set of interfaces (Confluence, SNOW, SolMan). The value of a fully integrated digital backbone is for example: high quality and standardized process documentation, data compliance, integrated core definitions modelling, and more use cases that you’ll hear about in our session!

Our session shows how process management is anchored and practiced across all Victorinox locations. An essential part of this initiative is the comprehensive training concept which conveys information in a way that is fitting for its target group. This way, we ensure that all employees know about process management, understand its benefits and objectives, and have clearly outlined responsibilities.

Vorwerk’s existing IT Demand Process was considered overly complex and resulted in a long cycle time. In my session, I’ll share with you how we leveraged ADONIS to design, align and optimize our IT Demand Process process end2end, as well as how we integrated the new process into our IT process landscape.

It all started with a running shoe in Switzerland. Now, On is one of the biggest global players in the running market. The iconic shoes are everywhere. In our session, Felix Bindschedler will give you insights into why process management was kicked-off at On and which challenges came along with it, for such a fast growing company. Our session in meant to be interactive –⁠ so your feedback throughout is more than welcome!

Holistic view and management of the organisation from the business model to the execution of the processes. Inclusion of the customer view of the organisation across all levels, especially in the internal process view. Different perspectives on business objects in the organisation. Virtual representation for analysis, design and transformation in the business architecture. Use of modern technologies for the communication of business objects from the Digital Twin in UNIQA.

This session explores integrated modelling of governance-related topics (Risk Management, Data Protection, Information Security, Outsourcing, etc.) through leveraging ADONIS’ technical possibilities (and its integration to other systems). The emphasis is placed on the “multi-use of existing models”, “logical consistency”, “freedom from redundancy”, “scalability” and “economies of scale”.

Employees are assigned “roles”, and “roles” are needed for modeling. Nico Teutsch tries to classify the central importance of the role in the context of process management and which potentials are hidden in the roles.

As an international premium hub, we operate efficiently, inspire customers, and aspire to be role models in the aviation industry –⁠ especially where sustainability and digitalization are concerned. To achieve this, our Enterprise Architecture programme has to be embraced group-wide. In our session, we’ll be sharing our experiences with the introduction, expansion and anchoring of EA at Munich Airport. We’ll talk about the challenges, successes and lessons. In addition, we’ll give an insight into our current EA initiatives, and how we envision the future of EA at Munich Airport.

What’s more, we’ll be sharing some of our key process management practices and experiences with you.

NORD/LB has been using BOC’s tools for many years now. Since 2016, ADOIT’s been in active use for the structural analysis of EAM artifacts –⁠ from business processes to technology packages, CMDB, and the respective CI. The integration of a CMDB with ADOIT has been refined over the years and moved to a more recent technology last year. The session gives an outlook on our data integration challenges, and lessons learned from these projects.

In this session, you’ll get insights into our different process architecture levels at Swarovski, as well as best practices from our decentralized modelling approach with ADONIS. We’ll be diving into our process documentation for audits & certification, discuss how we combine processes models with working instructions, and shed some light on the key integration interfaces for master data: HR, IT & DMS.

Together, we will work out how the “human-centered” approach of design thinking can support the development of concepts, prototypes and experiments for new digital business models. Based on the OMiLAB approach “Scene2Model”, these innovative business models will be developed hands-on and collaboratively – in interaction and exchange with BPM, EA and GRC.
