Changepoint: The Amalgamation of Strategy and Execution

A Robust enterprise architecture is essential to manage the turbulence associated with digital transformation initiatives. For instance, an organization undergoing a transformational change is faced with the age-old dilemma of inadequate interoperability associated with disparate IT systems procured from multiple vendors. For a successful change initiative, organizations need to understand how the initiative is affecting different operational regimes within a business. In short, managing this uncertainty effectively is a necessity. For any organization, the capability to forecast challenges and adapt accordingly is the need of the hour amidst continually changing market dynamics.

At this juncture, Changepoint—a Seattle based company—is offering an Enterprise Architecture Management (EAM) platform that accurately maps an enterprise’s architecture in real-time and provides actionable insights to support application rationalization, IT alignment, portfolio optimization, and many more; it empowers clients to consistently reshape their business operations according to today’s volatile enterprise environment.

“The reason we offer a variety of enterprise portfolio disciplines is to support our clients across different business regimes, starting from building a strategy to execution continuum. We believe in the philosophy ‘helping will sell, selling won’t help’ while engaging with clients,” says Matt Scheuing, Changepoint CEO.

During such engagements, Changepoint creates inventories of valuable data by surveying direct users. This customer-centric approach of the company establishes a sense of excitement, engagement, and transparency that helps drive innovation while enabling clients to evolve constantly by adapting to the trends of its business ecosystem. Changepoint EAM – formerly known as barometerIT -- is configured based on client preferences and valuable feedback obtained from all the end-users. Moreover, its simple, user-friendly, and intuitive interface allows any employee to start contributing value to the business in minutes. Crowdsourced data within Changepoint EAM provides a multi-dimensional, real-time view of an entire organization by leveraging a graph database that visually maps relationships like strategies and their alignment to different business and IT enablers. This enables stakeholders to forecast portfolio changes and business hurdles and allows them to identify, remediate, or tackle roadblocks proactively. Changepoint EAM’s real-time executive-level insights help business leaders understand the impact of change initiatives, streamline innovation processes, and mitigate risks while adapting to transformational changes.
