Business reference architecture defines what a business does to enable value creation, rather than how. The Westminster Federal Government Business Reference Architecture provides a ready-made business capability map for Westminster-style federal governments, organised around six policy-to-delivery value streams plus a band of enabling functions, decomposed into Level 1 and Level 2 capabilities.
Without a capability map that reflects what your organisation actually does, it is impossible to see how value is truly delivered, and decision-making turns into guesswork. Use this reference architecture to customise and validate a capability map, align IT to the business, and leverage the accompanying LLM-ingestible Excel tool for AI-assisted analysis.
