Disclosed herein is a process for determining an effective strategy for growth and development of an enterprise that balances corporate goals and objectives with the technological challenges of providing solutions across the enterprise. A business capability roadmap (BCR) may be developed to express how capabilities derived from corporate strategy may be enabled in terms of people, process, and/or technology solutions as a time sequenced chain of activities. As the BCR solutions are developed, synergies and constraints with existing solutions, solutions under development, and solutions that are planned to be developed across the enterprise may be considered. Developing a BCR in terms of business capabilities provides abstraction of concrete assets that enables high level planning in terms that may be understood by both corporate and technology leadership within the enterprise.
