Domain Roadmap Development

Domain Roadmap Development

About this service

A roadmap for a domain of design first defines a target state for that domain of design driven by the desired outcomes you wish to achieve from this capability. It then defines a plan to reach this desired target state clearly defining costs, benefits, dependencies, resourcing, technology support, and the investment case for the roadmap.

The roadmap covers all four aspects of any domain of design capability: People, process, data, and technology. It will identify the roles and skills required, define key bodies and processes, the key artefacts that will be produced and maintained and should the scale of the capability justify it, the adoption and implementation of a tool to support that domain of design (of if not what will be used in lieu of a dedicated tool.

Why is it important?

For every domain of design, a roadmap provides you the knowledge of where your organisation stands compared to your competitors, industry standards and peers. It gives you a clear idea of your risk in that domain and helps you to see and take on further opportunities. A roadmap communicates the full posture of your organisation for that domain of design. It helps prioritise certain essential decisions to get the most on your return on investment and get full clarity of a realistic budget.

The roadmap for each specific domain of design comes with its own unique benefits; the Security domain roadmap identifies key areas of cyber risk; the Data domain roadmap will provide your organisation with greater insights and control over this critical business asset ion the digital age; the Process domain roadmap will help you achieve higher levels of process automation. Please contact us if you are interested in more detail on the specific benefits for the roadmap for any given domain of design.

How we work with you

We deliver this service following our standard roadmap planning approach. We first understand “where are you now” for the domain of design. We then define “where do you want to be?” – what good looks like for that domain at your organisation delivering a measurable (SMART) set of outcomes. We then identify “what do we need to get there?” – what artefacts and what bodies and processes are required to achieve the desired outcomes. Finally, driven by the gap between current and target state, we develop in collaboration with you a roadmap of activities, essentially a project plan, to move to that desired target state.
