Architecture presentation
See it your way with individual architecture views
Assure success of your architecture management system by enabling every stakeholder to easily access architectural deliverables created to support decision making.
Using ordinary Web browsers, virtually anyone—from business and IT planners, business and IT operations, project managers, to auditors and risk managers—can use ARIS Business Publisher and ARIS MashZone along with ARIS IT Architect to easily consult repository content and to generate reports for their daily work.
Publishing
Communicate architecture descriptions across your intranet by using ARIS IT Architect with ARIS Business Publisher. You can publish catalogs, matrices and diagrams, that can cover:
- Business objectives and capabilities
- End-to-end processes
- Organizational structures
- Applications
- Business and IT services
- Technologies and IT infrastructures
Staff across your company can access only content that they are entitled to consult and can easily browse and navigate architecture descriptions as well as linked external documents. Publish your architecture content according to corporate identity standards.

Dashboarding & interactive reporting
Architecture descriptions are based on portfolios of enterprise assets consisting of processes, people and technology and their relationships. Because your company is constantly changing—and so are these architecture descriptions.
So stay on top of these changes by using ARIS IT Architect with ARIS MashZone. Stakeholders can interactively view content in the repository or monitor its state in a senior management-friendly manner.
Using ARIS MashZone, you can mix information in the repository with content from other sources—for example, from a CRM system to provide a better insight into impact on enterprise end customers. Using Google maps, you can visualize the availability of technology assets for business operations managers.

Reporting
Organization-specific management and governance processes predefine the format and content for specific deliverables used to make decisions and document proposals or actual architectures.
That is why ARIS IT Architect and Designer come with predefined reports that give you a condensed view of business and IT alignment, IT redundancy, IT portfolio health and more. You can change existing or create new reports on architecture descriptions using structured formats, such as XML or Excel, or unstructured documents, such as PDF, HTML, DOC and RTF.
