Interviews held with over a thousand CEOs in 2010 and CIOs in 2011 show that organizations are expecting change and are being challenged with complexity. As CEOs and CIOs have started strategically aligning their thinking around change, future challenges, growth and complexity, organizations must now focus on driving new and better business value from the enterprise's portfolio of technology to remain successful. Technology designs and architectures need to realistically identify and represent the business's capabilities and their relationships to operations and technology. This paper presents a new concept called Actionable Business Architecture. Actionable Business Architecture builds beyond the state-of-the-art in the field of Business Architecture by providing a new perspective on the subject of managing the confluence of three key business models of strategy, operations and technology. It consumes the science and practice of strategy management, business process and case management, service orientation and industry enterprise models as the means to make the business architecture simplified and focused to support transformation.
