Blueprinting is a standard approach in Engineering & Construction to
– Manage Complexity
– Mitigate Risk
– Gain Agreement
– Lower Cost of Remanufacturing
Blueprinting (commonly referred as Modeling) for IT Solutions also reduces complexity, risk, costs and helps gain agreement in the development and deployment of IT Solutions.
Models / Blueprints – A valuable asset for engineering projects

Informal modeling Presentations and Drawing tools Quick capturing of ideas for analysis Capable of analyzing simple problems
Modeling Leveraging industry standards (UML, BPMN, Architecture
frameworks) to analyze the industry specific complex problems Industry recognized notations Underlying meta-data facilitates easier collaboration on model
dependencies, with automated change propagation. Easy impact analysis reports Simulation for early problem determination

No matter the variable forces at play, often the core issue is the lack of a cohesive and inclusive process
1. Do the right things: through results-based budgeting and policy analysis
2. Do things right: through performance assessment and management aligned with policy initiatives
3. Manage change: for continuous refinement of delivered services through process optimization to deliver the results citizens want at a price they are willing to pay

MRM can be used in a number of ways to facilitate results-based government
Strategic Planning - Determining results you wish to achieve and the strategies for achieving them
Municipal Business Architecture – Designing the programs and services that deliver the outcomes that address citizens’ needs
Budgeting for Outcomes - Determining the services and service levels that provide the outcomes citizens want at a price they are willing to pay
Performance Management - Assessments of performance indicator actual vs. target values to drive operational improvements and inform future strategic planning activities to close the right performance gaps
Identify opportunities to exploit Information Systems solutions – Define the associated applications, data sources and platform technical architectures in support of the efficient, cost effective realization of municipal services – delivering more with less through IT exploitation

Benefits of a Model Driven Approach
Accelerate Time to Value– 30 to 40 percent decrease in time spent in the modelling phase
– 20 to 25 percent decrease in the time spent in the design phase
– 15 percent decrease in the time spent in the deployment phase
Improve Productivity – An average of a 70 percent increase in developer productivity (sixty seven percent of the respondents said that their
developer productivity increased as a result of using the Models)
Reduce Costs– Cost savings extending from 5 percent to greater than 25 percent (75 percent of respondents reported that use of the
Models helped decrease costs)
– Many companies observed that cost savings would increase as the team became more familiar with the Models and used them on multiple initiatives
Strengthen Business/Technology Linkage– Use of the Models helped to directly align with business needs
Improve Operational Efficiency and Effectiveness– Models help identify and eliminate duplications of processing across line of business silos

Challenge
• Standardization – inability to drive standardization and eliminate duplication
• Project execution – challenges in implementing a project and estimating the time and resources required
• Scalability – challenges in terms of scaling to a factory approach once the first project was delivered
• Maintainability, challenges in terms of governance of projects
• Cost / Inefficiency – Expensive human resources compensate for what IT hasn’t solved, switching screens throughout a process and re-entering same data.
• Current approach made multi-channel impossible
Achieved a 20% time / cost benefit based on initial business lending project
Developed a common ground for cross domain and cross country harmonization
Enforced consistency, eliminated duplication and aligned business and IT projects
Intellectual property contained in process model exceeded expectations in terms of accelerator value
