practitioners have to be results-oriented. This insightful new book lays out a

approach to envisioning, planning, designing, and building contemporary
business software system solutions, using best practices captured in the form of
Capability Cases. The authors help the reader align business strategy and
required results to successful technology implementations. They demonstrate
how to build a reliable bridge from the organization's business needs to
optimal technology solutions that assure the long term viability of the
enterprise, and maximize return on institutional investments. Capability Cases
are an innovative spin on the proven practices of use cases and design patterns,
and this book is the first to show you how to make them work for your
organization.
