Ideas for #BPMshift - Delenda est "vendor-centric #BPM" - Does BPM help with 50% of EA #entarch ?

BPM as a trio of methodology, architecture/practice and tools (often COTS or FOSS) defines a lot for enterprise architecture.

Let us see at the TOGAF layers: (values are approximate and calculated on number of non-trivial issues)

• 60 % of business architecture
• 50 % of data/information architecture
• 70 % of application architecture
• 20 % of technology architecture 

(60+50+70+20) / 400 = 200 / 400 = 50/100

In addition,

1. BPM can improve information security (see http://improving-bpm-systems.blogspot.ch/2014/04/ideas-for-bpmshift-delenda-est-vendor.html ).
2. BPM provides a powerful company-wide governance capability because a company is a system of processes (see http://improving-bpm-systems.blogspot.no/2014/03/enterprise-as-system-of-processes.html ).

Maybe to start your EA from a properly architected  BPM? Benefits are huge - http://improving-bpm-systems.blogspot.ch/2014/05/ideas-for-bpmshift-delenda-est-vendor_9.html
