Abstract
An enterprise architecture (EA) is a high-level representation of an enterprise, used for managing the relation between business and IT. In order to improve the contribution of IT to the business, all elements of an EA should be traceable to the business model and vice versa. However, in practice this is not the case. In addition to reasoning about cost structures and goal contributions of IT to the business, as is customary in EA, traceability would allow practitioners to reason about the contribution of IT to the value offerings of a business. In this research paper we present the results from an experiment where we wanted to refine guidelines for transforming a business model into an EA that we have derived in earlier research. Based on this experiment we refine the guidelines, identify building blocks for a business model (BM) based EA design and illustrate this with an example.
