Business -> Architecture -> Process -> Organization (BAPO)
Business (product) should drive your (technical) architecture which drives your way of working (process) which drives your organization.
A way to do this1:
- Find the parts of the product that are
- commodity
- differentiating
- innovative
- Adjust architectural service boundaries to remove coupling along lifecycle stages. i.e. sort your architecture by the lifecycle stage
- Set ways of working based product lifecycle stage. i.e. make the commodity stuff easy to maintain, incrementally improve on differentiating aspects, continually look for innovation
- Design the org structure to group related capabilities
