What You Do – Business Blueprinting

Dragon1 Business Blueprinting goes beyond visualization to provide management and improvement support.

Instead of separate dashboards or reports, Dragon1 doesn’t just track data; it connects it into live, interactive blueprints that immediately show where money is being lost, where risks arise, and where there is potential for performance improvement.

  • High Performing Architectures: Build, model, design, and visualize architectures across all domains.
  • Comprehensive Interactive Views: See all layers of the organization dynamically connected.
  • KPI-Driven Insights: Measure and monitor performance metrics directly within the transformation projects.
  • Continuous Improvement: Dragon1 highlights areas for optimization, enabling leaders to track improvements over time.
