iGrafx Accelerators enable Enterprise Business Architects utilizing iGrafx
Enterprise Modeler to define enterprise models more quickly and ensure
that they’re aligned with appropriate industry standards and published
enterprise frameworks.
iGrafx Accelerators are used in the
context of iGrafx Enterprise Modeler to
rapidly define enterprise models inclusive
of business and process architectures. By
linking an enterprise model with one or
more frameworks, compliance and gap
analysis is possible and organizations can
focus process improvement efforts in areas
that are competitive differentiators. In
addition, alignment with some enterprise
frameworks, e.g. Process Classification
Framework, poises organizations to
benchmark their performance with
industry peers.
