Business Modeling

The purposes of business modeling are:

  • to understand the structure and the dynamics of the organization in which a system is to be deployed (the target organization).
  • to understand current problems in the target organization and identify improvement potentials. 
  • to ensure that customers, end users, and developers have a common understanding of the target organization.
  • to derive the system requirements needed to support the target organization.

To achieve these goals, the business modeling discipline describes how to develop a vision of the new target organization, and based on this vision define the processes, roles, and responsibilities of that organization in a business use-case model and a business object model.

The following documents describe a method for applying the business modeling discipline activities to Rational Analyst Studio tools.
