ArchiMate® 2.0 : A Step Towards A
Common Language
The Open Group created ArchiMate® 2.0 as an open and independent
modelling language for enterprise architecture (EA). The standard
offers a common language for describing the construction and
operation of business processes, organisational structures, information
flows, IT systems, and technical infrastructure.
At this month’s EA Forum, Michelle van den Berg will discuss
ArchiMate 2.0 and how it complements existing notations and
standards; specifically BPMN, UML and TOGAF
Michelle is an experienced EA consultant and trainer at Real IRM. She
has contributed extensively to the new ArchiMate standard through her
work on the ArchiMate 2.0 People Certification and the ArchiMate and
TOGAF ACF white paper. Michelle has also developed Archimate 2.0
accredited training material, and is currently involved in the integration
between ArchiMate and UML/BPMN standards.

� Language vs notation
� Not competing, but complementing
� Use ArchiMate for high level process definition
� Use BPMN for the detailed description of process flows, with elements such as detailed activities, their sequencing, parallel or alternative paths.
