- Facilitate user training and onboarding
- Integrate the tool with key line-of-business systems
- Enable adoption across the architecture community
- Led discovery workshops with IT and business stakeholders
- Captured as-is data across the IT portfolio
- Built a centralized architecture repository within OrbusInfinity
- Defined a tailored metamodel for the organization’s needs
- Created and mapped architectural objects, relationships, and views
