Presentation(s): Architecture and Why It's Important

The California Independent System Operator (CAISO) management needed a method for capturing and managing their collection of Policies, Procedures, Standards and continuously growing amount of organizational data related documentation. This presentation will review the course of action that CAISO has taken in devising an information architecture that meets the needs of this organization.  Many organizations currently use automated processes and fail to document those processes.  From a business perspective, only about 30% of all processes (according to the Gartner Group) are ever automated, but all business processes should be captured, even the automated ones and the method by which they are automated. Bruce will explain how he utilized Software Process Improvement (SPI) methods to "get started," where they are now, and where they expect to go.
