AI Enabled Agile and Digital Enterprise (3 days training)

Objective : This course aims to help attendees to put into practice the AI Enabled Agile and Digital Enterprise empowered by AI / Reinforcement Learning mechanisms on the Sparx EA Modelling and Execution tool.

The Problem encountered by every enterprise : The Strategy-Execution Gap !

Traditional businesses struggle because the Strategic Value Delivery (the plan depicted on the top left corner of the figure) is defined on a quarterly or an annual cycle, but the Disruptive Digital Environment on the right corner changes hourly.

This creates a massive gap between planning and reality.

The Solution : A Value-Driven Control Loop

This framework closes that gap using AI Agents powered by the Nested Learning Framework (PDCA) depicted on the bottom left corner.

This diagram illustrates the fundamental speed difference between the two core layers of the modern enterprise, and how they work together:

At the top: The Architecture Layer -Stability at Scale

The job of O-AA, TOGAF, and ArchiMate is to define the boundaries of the system of Enterprise Architecture. This layer operates on a slow, deliberate cadence:

• Cadence: Quarterly to Annually (The Strategy/Design Loop)

• Purpose: Coherence and Compliance. They define the organizational invariants—the strategic why, the regulatory must, and the technical how (e.g., standard API patterns, security mandates, etc...).

• Output: The Desired Future State of the Enterprise and the formal Enterprise Model to reach this state.

In the bottom :The Execution Layer- Adaptation at Light Speed

The Agentic AI layer, powered by the PDCA loop, operates inside the guardrails set by the Enterprise Architecture. This is where the speed of value deliveryis generated:

• Cadence: Sub-second to Daily (The Sensing/Decision Loop)

• Purpose: Adaptive Optimization. The AI Agent uses the drivers of the Disruptive Digital Environment of the Enterprise as sensors to continuously measure the Reward of its Value-Centred Actions underpinned by entities of Innovation Dimensions.

• Action: On the basis of such feedbacks, it performs Data Driven Value Adjustments —small, autonomous, architectural changes that optimize the Value Delivery in real-time (e.g., re-routing an average performance level of products and service ratings to the customer service, dynamically re-prioritizing a development task to provide customers with more satisfaction, etc...)

The Crucial Distinction:

The Architecture DESIGNS the car (stable, safe chassis, compliant engine). The AI Agent DRIVES the car (millisecond adjustments to steering, speed, and route based on real-time traffic).

This is the shift: Architecture is the Constraint that enables Velocity. Without the formal rigor of O-AA driven TOGAF defining the Enterprise's structure, the fast-moving AI Agents would quickly spin out of control, leading to chaos and unmanageable technical debt.

Think of EA as the governance platform that gives the Agentic AI the confidence to accelerate.

 

Detailed Description of this course

The O-AA standard helps to align enterprise's service & product architectures as well as its operations architecture to agile strategies and customer experience. The resulting architecture continuously allows the Strategy-Driven Value Delivery and Data-Driven Value Adjustment to your organization - as depicted on the right corner of the figure.

Prerequisites : Basic knowledge on ArchiMate and TOGAF's ADM would be prefereable but not necessary

Participant Profiles : CxO, Operation Managers, Enterprise Architects, Agile and Digital Practitioners, Business and System Analysts and Designers

.

Part 1 : Core Elements of the AI Enabled Agile and Digital Enterprise

• This first part presents the foundation of Agile Architecture Body of Knowledge

It contains the fundamental concepts including its structure and explains :

- Why the enterprise needs to conduct a Digital and Agile Transformation,

- The Agile Architecture development,

- Intentional and Emerging Architectures,

- Architecting the Agile Transformation and Agile Governance,

- Principles for the practice of Agile Architecture explained through a case study

- The PDCA Cycle,

- The Agentic AI for the speed of delivery

 

Part 2 : Implementation of the AI Enabled Agile and Digital Architecture

•This part develops the topics introduced in the Part I in greater detail

Topics include : Agile Strategy, Agile Organization, Enterprise Segmentation, Product Architecture, Operations Architecture, Value Streams, Product Journey, Customer Journey Mapping, Software Architecture, PDCA Cycle with the Agentic AI

The course presents the application of Agile concepts through a complete case study (from Strategy Settings to Software Boundaries to enable Agile Team Autonomy).

Through its modeling mechanisms, it also bridges the critical gap between the structure of the architecture and its AI-driven dynamicity.

Advantage of taking this Training from GooBiz:

In this course you'll have the opportunity to put into practice concepts through an end-to-end case study on the Sparx EA modeling tool from ArchiMate specifications till Agent descriptions and execution.

This case study through its traceable models helps attendees to better understand how to implement the Agile and Digital Enterprise in a real world situation by considering the Customer Experience of the Disruptive Digital Environment as sensors

Data Feed-backs such as the 'average performance level of products' and 'service ratings' will continuously help to measure the Reward of previous Actions supported by Value-Centred Entities of Innovation Dimensions to dynamically enhance the Customer Journey to reach the expected client satisfaction.

Notice : Following the real-world illustrations of concepts and modelling along the first two days, the 3rd day of this training focuses on putting into practice the AI Enabled Agile and Digital Enterprise architecture on an end-to-end case study. .

This last day allows you understand how to prepare the AI enabled Agile Architecture Foundation to ensure alignment of Products, Services and Operations of the Organization to Strategies and Values till their software implementation.

Attendees will have the opportunity to implement during the course the Data-Driven Strategic Value Delivery Architecture using ArchiMate and UML for Data-Types on the Sparx EA modelling tool and apply Agents at the Execution Layer.

-The necessary backbone of solutions with pre-built models will be provided to accelerate hands-on using the Sparx EA modeling and execution tool.

-Desired Future State-based Models will help you ensure both strategic and data-driven alignment powered by ML/RL (Reinforcement Learning) as the latter offers perfect state and reward based assessment mechanisms.
