A Business Architecture is where an organization identifies the various services that it suppose to provide externally, as well as the various functions it needs to own to support the service to the external.

A Business Architecture is where an organization identifies the various services that it suppose to provide externally, as well as the various functions it owns or needs to own internally to support the external service. In terms of GC Enterprise Business Architecture, this is where the Government of Canada identifies the various departments, the services they provide to Canadians and the functions they owns.

 

<p>With multiple departments providing various services to Canadians, there are some commonalities in the internal functions that the department must have to support these external services. These common functions are being categorized in a GC Business Capability Model (BCM).</p>

In terms of GC Business Enterprise Architecture, this is where the Government of Canada identifies the various departments and the services that it needs to provide to Canadians.

<p>Several departments have come together in a form of a working group to create this BCM model for the Government of Canada, with the hope of making it inclusive to all departments. The working group has been working for quite some time and there have been a few iterations of this model, the latest one being GC BCM v2.0 with definition for each category to clarify how to use the model.</p>
