ArchiMate® 3.2 Support
With ArchiMate®, Innovator supports the worldwide recognized standard for modeling enterprise architecture. ArchiMate® is particularly closely linked to The Open Group Architecture Framework (TOGAF®). TOGAF® constitutes a method for designing, planning, implementing and maintaining enterprise architectures that you can use with Innovator to model your processes. Model elements are modeled on different levels when mapping enterprise architecture; these are then linked with each other using relationships.

Gap Analysis
Use Innovator’s gap analysis to compare your enterprise architecture’s target and performance to quickly identify and fix any gaps. One of Innovator’s strong points is documentation generation in HTML and Microsoft Word that can be configured as required. Gaps can be made transparent once they have been modeled by incorporating them into an MS Word documentation so they can be quickly analyzed. Architecture states can be set out next to each other and compared in a whiteboard diagram. This supports verification of enterprise architectures.

Portfolio Analysis
You can facilitate a portfolio analysis of certain elements in your enterprise architecture by exporting performance indicators from Innovator. A set of elements are compared in two dimensions, e.g. business processes can be assessed using key indicators that you can configure to suit your needs. These are then exported to Excel at the touch of a button and the portfolio graphic is displayed there.
