Press Release

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

AMSTERDAM / WAGENINGEN, The Netherlands – June 19th, 2017

Dragon1 Inc. is recognized as a Strong Performer by Top Analyst Firm Forrester Research. For the first time, the company is entering the Forrester Wave™ Enterprise Architecture Management Suites (EAMS) Q2 2017, and, in our opinion, is already catching up with the big traditional companies.

As a new entrant, Dragon1 Inc., with their Dragon1 digital platform for co-creating and maturing Enterprise Architecture, is, in our opinion, disrupting the market. The capabilities to conceptualize, design, visualize, message, and monitor customer-obsessed strategies, architecture, and transformation are helping EA pros with their different needs and levels of maturity.

Based On Your Firm’s Unique Needs

Tech and IT management must adapt and improve continuously, bringing new technologies into the organization. Improving business operations and enabling agile digital experience is increasing today. Therefore, all EA practitioners need their own fully functional tool to do their activities, but many CEOs do not prefer this option.

As a digital platform, Dragon1 allows multiple users, such as architects, analysts, engineers, and project teams, to work simultaneously on the same business model, blueprint, or roadmap. Receiving feedback from the stakeholders (via digital post-its) on their Tablet PC or Smartphone.

Decision Supporting Visualizations Generated from Trusted Data

"Many companies underestimate the danger of digital disruption. Recent events worldwide, such as security threats by ransomware attacks, are forcing every company to work on their abilities to make evidence-based decisions quickly and translate them into action. This means that the leaders of the companies need at least overviews and insights of the business model, structure, people, processes, applications, IT and business capabilities, reporting lines, and their ecosystem." – Mark Paauwe, VP of Technology and Innovation, explains.

"To obtain quick results, the first step is to inventory all your data in your company. Next, you generate diagrams using the available data on visualization templates. In this way, you analyze the data, which data is contaminated, and which data must be enriched. The last step is that EA pros can use these trusted data for creating deliverables for all kinds of stakeholders for decision making." – Mark Paauwe finalizes.
