Organizations Running More Efficient and Profitable
Dragon1 Software supports Architects and Engineers in bridging the gap between strategy, information systems, and business change by creating business and IT products like system architectures, diagrams, blueprints, roadmaps, data visualizations, and more.
Dragon1 software is an EAM suite with an EA repository. That means that in Dragon1 you will always have repository functionality. A repository is a place where you can store, collect, (re)use and manage data.
Dragon1 relies on the Systems Engineering Body of Knowledge (SEBoK) classification: Enterprise Systems Engineering (ESE) pertains to the view of enterprises. Meaning: organizations or combinations of organizations can be viewed as systems.

Use Case: Engineering and Implementing a New Information System
Suppose the company has decided to implement a new information system, for instance, a new CRM, a new Dataware House, a Chatbot, or a new Banking Application.
Replacing the old system with the new system will often have an impact on many other systems, processes, data, and IT infrastructure devices. This impact can cause a reduced level of services to clients. Projects do fail because of this.
An information system is a coherent set of applications, interfaces, and databases. The old system may have one or more applications that are interfacing with other systems in an outdated way. This could mean that also these other systems need to be updated or replaced.
It could also be that the old system or other systems are running on an old outdated operating system platform or IT infrastructure components that cannot host the new information system.
If your Architects have designed, engineered, documented, and aligned these EA documents with the strategy, you always know the important dependencies of objects and which principles and IT standards your objects (processes, applications, data, and IT Infra components) make use of. You would be always busy making sure that outdated and non-compliant objects are replaced timely.
You also have planned a more realistic timeline and budget for implementing the new information system and organizing temporary solutions and alternatives during the migration.
