Dit boek gaat over procesarchitectuur en hoe dat concept helpt bij het inrichten van een bedrijf of organisatie. Het is bedoeld voor (lijn- en programma)managers, beleidsmakers en architecten die samen een organisatie beter willen laten werken door het verbeteren van de samenhang in de processen en de besturing. Het boek is geschreven vanuit het besef dat het aanpassen van de inrichting en werking van organisaties een ingrijpend verandertraject kan betekenen.
De in dit boek gepresenteerde aanpak is gebaseerd op theorie uit onder meer organisatiekunde, logistiek, informatievoorziening, management control en veranderkunde.
De auteurs leggen steeds de verbinding met deze theorie en geven in kennisparagrafen beknopte samenvattingen om deze te duiden. Praktische voorbeelden brengen de concepten tot leven en laten zien hoe het werkt.
Dit boek is de tweede herziene druk van de officiële uitgave van ASL BiSL Foundation dat het Framework BiSL beschrijft.
De eerste druk van dit boek dateert uit februari 2005. Sinds de publicatie van BiSL was er grote belangstelling voor dit framework. Veel organisaties gebruiken het procesmodel van de best practices van BiSL. Een groot aantal mensen heeft een training gevolgd over BiSL en het BiSL Foundation examen afgelegd.
De belangrijkste wijzigingen die in deze tweede druk zijn doorgevoerd, zijn:
verbeterde (meer consistente) schrijfwijze van formuleringen en begrippen
tekstuele aanpassingen om de inhoud beter toegankelijk te maken
consequent doorgevoerde schrijfwijze voor alle benamingen van Procesclusters, Processen en Activiteiten.
uitvoering met steunkleur, waardoor de leesbaarheid van met name de illustraties is verbeterd, en de lay-out aantrekkelijker is geworden.
BiSL geeft invulling aan de processen en activiteiten die noodzakelijk zijn om de informatievoorziening vanuit de business, dat wil zeggen vanuit gebruikers- en bedrijfsoptiek te sturen. Het is een samenhangend framework, met aandacht voor zowel operationele, tactische en strategische processen, alsmede voor de onderlinge relaties.
In dit boek worden het BiSL-framework en de processen daarbinnen beschreven. Het biedt uitgebreide uitleg van alle aspecten en geeft handvatten om er zelf in de eigen organisatie mee aan de slag te gaan. Het boek is geschreven voor o.a. business-informatiemanagers, functioneel beheerders, informatiemanagers, systeemeigenaren, CIOs, businessmanagers en -consultants.
Dit boek is officiële literatuur voor het BiSL Foundation examen van APMG.

This Management Guide provides guidance on why a technology provider should use the Open Trusted Technology Provider Standard (O-TTPS) - Mitigating the Risk of Tainted and Counterfeit Products (approved by ISO/IEC as ISO/IEC 20243:2015) and why they should consider certification to publicly register their conformance to the standard.
The O-TTPS is the first standard with a certification program that specifies measurable conformance criteria for both product integrity and supply chain security practices. The standard defines a set of best practices that ICT providers should follow throughout the full life cycle of their products from design through disposal, including their supply chains, in order to mitigate the risk of tainted and counterfeit components.
The introduction of tainted products into the supply chain poses significant risk to organizations because altered products can introduce the possibility of untracked malicious behavior. A compromised electronic component or piece of malware enabled software that lies dormant and undetected within an organization could cause tremendous damage if activated remotely. Counterfeit products can also cause significant damage to customers and providers resulting in rogue functionality, failed or inferior products, or revenue and brand equity loss.
As a result, customers now need assurances they are buying from trusted technology providers who follow best practices with their own in-house secure development and engineering practices and also in securing their out-sourced components and their supply chains.
This guide offers an approach to providing those assurances to customers. It includes the requirements from the standard and an overview of the certification process, with pointers to the relevant supporting documents, offering a practical introduction to executives, managers, and those involved directly in implementing the best practices defined in the standard.
As the certification program is open to all constituents involved in a product's life cycle this guide should be of interest to:
* ICT provider companies (e.g. OEMs, hardware and software component suppliers, value-add distributors, and resellers),
* Business managers, procurement managers, product managers and other individuals who want to better understand product integrity and supply chain security risks and how to protect against those risks and,
* Government and commercial customers concerned about reducing the risk of damage to their business enterprises and critical infrastructures, which all depend heavily on secure ICT for their day-to-day operations.

The Banking Industry Architecture Network (BIAN) is a global, not-for profit association of banks, solution providers, consultancy companies, integrators and academic partners with the shared aim of defining a semantic standard for the banking industry covering almost all the well-known architectural layers.
The BIAN was formed in 2008 by a group of banks and solution providers with the shared aim of defining a semantic Service Operation standard for the financial services industry. At a later stage other standards bodies, like ISO and IFX, joined along with some academic partners.
BIAN's expectation is that a standard definition of business functions and service interactions that describe the general construct of any bank will be of significant benefit to the industry. When compared to an increasing number of proprietary designs, a dedicated industry standard, like BIAN, provides the following main benefits:
* It enables the more efficient and effective development and integration of software solutions for and between banks;
* It significantly lowers the overall integration costs;
* It improves the operational efficiency within and between banks and provides the opportunity for greater solution and capability re-use within and among banks;
* It supports the current need for more industry integration and collaboration through the usage of (open) APIs;
* It supports the adoption of more flexible business service sourcing models and enhances the evolution and adoption of shared third party business services;
* It supports FinTechs and RegTechs to gain an easy insight in the complex financial services industry structure.
This book is intended for those enterprise, business and solution architects in the financial services industry (FSI) who are interested in applying the BIAN Industry Standard in their organization. It will provide readers with in-depth knowledge to help them understand the full construct of BIAN artifacts, how to apply them and how they can contribute to help the BIAN standard fulfill their (organization's) needs.
The authors of the book expect the readers to have an in-depth knowledge of IT architectural principles and methodologies.
Little did Kathleen, Chief Architect at ArchiSurance, know, as she walked into a meeting with the CIO, just how much her job was going to change. Her intention had been to get approval for some new ideas she'd had to strengthen their Enterprise Architecture, after having slowly lost a grip on it during the merger.
During the meeting, however, it becomes apparent that the transformation of the organization to become more digital has caused chaos, and not only for her team. It is clear, despite all good intentions, that the transformation is failing. By the end of the meeting, she has agreed to help turn the situation around.
After leading the initial reset of the Digital Transformation, Kathleen is suddenly the owner of the implementation. What follows is a journey of the typical problems faced by companies as they make decisions to deploy digital technologies. Kathleen proceeds to solve one problem after the other using guidance from the open digital standards of The Open Group to lay the foundation for deploying quality digital technology solutions at a faster pace.
