About eBlue’s Business Motivation Model (BMM):
Business Motivation Model (BMM) provides the scheme and structure of organizational
development, communication and business plan management. Nowadays, the eBlue enterprise
are considering using the emerging technology called big data into their business. The main
goal of which is not only to improve the enterprise IT efficiency but also to increase the level
of customer satisfaction (Craig, 2013).
Since eBlue now have to make a shift from the traditional business to the big data business, the
current business motivation model and business manipulation will need to be changed to adapt
to the new needs and directions. Therefore, our group makes up 6 strategies and corresponding
tactics for this mission. Otherwise, to meet the new BMM’s needs, the requirements of
employee enrolment and training also needs to be altered, which means that employees must
have a good command of the big data technology. These all build up the fundamental basement
for the business shift from convention to big data era.
In the case of the tactics which make the strategies successful, firstly, we utilize big data
technology to meet the customer’s specific needs and retrieve feedbacks from them in order to
improve the customer satisfaction furtherly, which means to put the customers’ needs in center.
What comes up is to keep the security during the period of online transaction. As an e-commerce
company, the most method of payment is online, which resulting in the fact that the online
payment environment is critical important for customers. Considering about putting the
customers’ benefits first, we have to be always prepared for the breach of online payment and
online fraud. On the other hand, it also can be categorized into customer satisfaction and
enterprise reputation maintenance. As an important part of the BMM, we also take the enterprise
information & data management into account. What we can think about first with the big data
is the information & data management, which means that the main aim of using big data is to
manage the data and information on the network. Through this technology, we can record the
data which the customers are interested in and what the customers have purchased on the
internet into our own database. Then, when the customers log in our shopping platform next
time, we will introduce the similar products as what they have purchased before and what they
are probably interested in to them in the home page of our shopping platform. This not only
increases the IT efficiency but also improves the customers’ shopping experiences. At the same
time, it can also reduce the cost to improve the business. In a word, to keep up with the current
IT trends, we have to build up the BMM based on the big data technology as well as possible
to make a change.
Considering the influencers and drivers, for eBlue enterprise, there are four factors influence
and drive the e-commerce, including technology, economy, society and law. The most
important one is the technology of big data, the reason of which is that the technology of big
data is the main support of solving problems and generating the data and information
management of enterprise. Not only that, compared with ‘Brick Store’, it also makes a new type
of sale, which make competitors enter the e-commerce market easier. While the cost,
competition, social reputation and legal issues also play some significant roles, considering an
Internet company, the technology is always the most important influencer.
The business model for eBlue enterprise is followed below. It comprises of the main
information and points of how eBlue’s business manipulation works:

Figure 6: Entity Relationship Diagram of eBlue
About Entity Relationship of eBlue
This whole trading process diagram above indicates the relationships among employees,
products, suppliers, customers, payments, advertisements and comments which can also be
regarded as a conceptual model of information architecture. It gives us a general idea of how
online trading is done and the details of the relationships between each two entity tables. Online
trading is basically managed by our Enterprise employees, however, there are leaders among
these employees who are known as managers. Therefore, the self-loop of Employee table has
a zero or one relationship with itself because only when an employee is a manager has the duty
to manage his/hers employees. PK and FK are short for Primary Key and Foreign Key
respectively. PK is the unique identity attribute of every single table, while one table may share
the same attribute with another and this attribute is so called Foreign Key. This conceptual
model helps people understand the surroundings such as how information are gathered and
what role each character is playing in the current architecture. In terms of Customers table,
customers are the most important role because they get to decide whether they want to make
any orders or comment anything on the products they buy. Hence, the relationship that

14
Customers have are mainly 0 to many relationship. Other than that, most of the relationship in
this Online Trading process are one to many.

Figure 8: Application Portfolio Model of eBlue
About Application Portfolio Model of eBlue:
Application Portfolio Model gives a framework for overseeing undertaking IT programming
applications and a view for categories in different services. Application portfolio Model
illustrates a view of the organizations’ product applications and measurements to outline the
business advantages of every application (Whatls, 2011).
For eBlue company to better implement these business capabilities, appropriate applications
will be applied to different business capabilities. Application Portfolio Model is made for
describing how multiple applications are supporting e-commence enterprises to upgrade their
online trading and keep the process in safe at the same time.
In this Application Portfolio Model, it illustrates the relationship between different applications.
These applications are divided by business capabilities, they are also marked by colours to
show the level of the importance. Green is for high level of applications, yellow is for medium
level of applications, and blue is for low level of applications. Because eBlue company is a
consultation company, much data information is outsourced to eBlue to analyse. To analyse
and manage the applications in short term, Application Portfolio Management is needed to be
done for deliver an effective approach to boost the business process for the e-commence
enterprises.

4. Implementation Planning and Governance
4.1 Projects Identification
This section provides a table to help eBlue transition from the current enterprise management
system to the new enterprise architecture. According to the table, there are eight projects that
need to be completed, each of which has a project ID that will be also used in the next section.
eBlue is a global e-commerce company, and it is extremly difficult to achieve the
transformation of the entire enterprise architecture. But the Sydney branch is a new institution,
and it is easier to switch from the old system to the new one. Therefore, the head office decided
to start the enterprise architecture transformation of eBlue with the Sydney branch as the pilot.
To ensure a successful implementation of the new enterprise architecture, we must identify
which projects need to be completed. The following table lists the projects we need tocomplete.

application software and customer care & service software need to be completed first.

Figure 10 is the roadmap of eBlue 4 programs to be finished in three years. It showed different
applications whether completed, ongoing or completed. It contained all of the business
capabilities on both horizontal and vertical. It also includes the infrastructures. Some of the
complex applications, we will need more time to fix it. So the version1 (v1), version2 (v2) have
been allocated in the diagram. Some of the applications would be needed by different
capabilities, so needed to be completed earlier.
4.4 Architecture Governance Process
