In this article the pIT stop panel was interviewed about the possibility of enterprise architecture in bridging a gap between the IT and business divide. Their answer was
“If I had a polo mint for every time I heard that a technology or approach would provide “alignment” between IT and the business I would walk around with permanently fresh breath.”
While they say there is no easy fix in bridging the divide, they did say that this did not negate the importance of “establishing formal ‘enterprise architecture’” They said that they have seen improvements in IT and business alignment especially in terms of SOA. One piece of advice they gave was to start small. In addition, they mentioned that instead of simply relying on technology or an approach, it is important for organizations to understand the importance of “human factors”.
