THE-OPEN-GROUP-OGB-001 practice question 9 of 10
Which of the following is an end product of business capability modeling?
Full set: 30 questionsDomain Introduction
Business capability modeling is the practice of identifying, defining, and structuring what a business does to achieve its objectives. The primary and definitive end product of this activity is a business capability map. This map provides a complete, stable, and visual representation of the enterprise's capabilities, organized hierarchically. It serves as a foundational artifact in business architecture, enabling strategic planning, investment analysis, and transformation efforts by showing what the business does, independent of how (processes) or who (organization) does it.
A. A value stream stages catalog is an output of value stream mapping, which focuses on how an organization delivers value to stakeholders, not on its inherent abilities.
B. A business process model is an output of business process analysis and describes the sequence of activities (the "how") used to execute work, which is distinct from a capability (the "what").
C. An organizational map (or org chart) illustrates the formal reporting structure of the business (the "who") and is intentionally decoupled from business capabilities to ensure stability.
