EAM and SOA practice established in a down-to-earth, highly collaborative manner within the teams of Oman Telecommunications Company S.A.O.G.. Atoll helped to define, test and fine-tune the practice and supplied SAMU as an EA and service repository and planning tool, 2011.
In the past, we initiated a number of projects that were related to transformation. I am very pleased to say that our project with Atoll has successfully met the requirements and produced the deliverables that brought value to the organization.
The Challenge
Omantel have developed a complex architecture over the years. Business requirements must be satisfied quicker as competition is increasing. Therefore, a steepsharp reduction was needed in IT solution development time was needed to bring new products and services to market faster, while controlling the risks of changes better.
The Solution
Emerging business demands are channelled to enterprise architects. They create a project architecture plan together with business analysts and other IT areas collaboratively for each demand. Plans live together with the projects and are used for decision making, budgeting, governance, and change approvals. Architecture plans are built in SAMU by reusing existing architecture elements and creating new ones.
