The capability model serves as a tool for identifying and assessing an organization's core capabilities. It enables better strategic planning and resource allocation to achieve desired business outcomes.
Use this profile to understand the building block briefly, place it in the model, and switch to the 360° assessment when needed.
Theoretical construct: explains a term, principle, or mental model.
What organizes, connects, or makes decisions possible.
A capability model maps the stable abilities an organization needs to achieve its goals, independently of particular teams or systems.
Capability models come from strategic enterprise architecture and were popularized by frameworks such as TOGAF and the Business Architecture Guild. Their starting point is asking what an organization must be able to do before deciding how it is organized or equipped.
A capability is a map of competence: it shows what the organization can do, not who does it. Levels refine broad abilities, assessments expose gaps, and initiatives connect gaps to change.
A durable organizational ability that is needed.
A view that makes maturity or need visible for each capability.
The difference between required and current ability.
A capability model connects strategy, investment, and architecture on one map. It is an analysis aid; by itself it specifies neither processes nor a particular organization structure.
