Modelling the Management System — Enterprise Management and Activities

  • Chapter
Handbook on Enterprise Architecture

Part of the book series: International Handbooks on Information Systems ((INFOSYS))

Abstract

Once enterprise management has decided on a mission3 for the business and has determined the entities involved in satisfying the mission, it is necessary to define how these entities will be co-ordinated (managed) and controlled. Co-ordination and control is achieved using a system of ’management and control’ (also called a decisional structure, management and control system, or ’management, command and control’ in defence). This system must be able to work out all necessary actual commitments / controls based on actual objectives / feedbacks from the managed and controlled system as well as from the environment.
