Notes im collecting on what is my (peder) real job is:

objective

i am done with presenting preliminary information and knowledge to clients without getting paid for it. My deliverable is a piece of paper, and i get paid to talk.

various names

  • Enterprise Architecture.
  • "Problem Architect" establishs the scope and focus of the problem to be solved. It's non-invasive to the business types because everyone can agree we have a problem (why would we be talking to IT otherwise?) and it's complementary to IT because it takes IT off the hook from guessing what the problem is. [1]

(w:Systems architect

difference

function

the problem:

The Standish group , a IT research group, documents this annually - 31.1% projects canceled, 52.7% of projects will cost 189% of their original estimates and only 16% of projects are completed on-time and on-budget. One only has to look at the rationales given to see the answer: We need a problem architect. [2]

The Solution

  • Deliver a paper on what the problem is.
  • Maintain and provide relationships with vendors that can take this "blueprint" and create a bid
  • Make sure that the plan gets implemented

marketing

workflow

Problem Architect

  • engage client
  • Define the problem
  • present "blueprint" or "recipe"
  • develop "Function Point Analysis" like thingy useful for scoping budget
