The model
Policy elicitation : The model advantage is a strong framework for policy elicitation.
The model may address all level of the organisation
The policies may be technical as well as managerial
Enhancement of models : Lot of models do not deeply address the responsibility.We join those models with the responsibility model
The model are closer to governance requirements
Standard enforcement in practices :
The model provide material to enhance the practice

ISO/IEC 15504
- ISO/IEC 15504 provides a processes structure and a maturity model
- Responsibility is not centric in the standard. It is addressed in Level 2 of the MM
- Basically, the standard may not be used to define policies
We make links between the standard and our model
- Based on that link, it is possible to define policies
aligned to business requirements

CIMOSA EAM
CIMOSA is a modeling framework that provides
semantic unification of the concepts from a
system architecture.
It contains three axes (CIMOSA Cube) :
-GENERATION (with 4 views : Function,
Information, Resources and Organization)
-INSTANTATION
-DERIVATION
Agent = functional entity
represented in resource view
Responsibility
represented in organization view
Capability
represented in resource view
No commitment, no link between
accountability and responsibility

- Responsibility is linked to an activity and to an agent
- Capability no more linked to the activity but is linked to the responsibility
- Commitment is introduced
- Accountability is formally a component of the responsibility

ISO/IEC 38500:2008
The principle :
ISO/IEC 38500:2008 requirement (from Principle 2 : Strategy) :
Agent : Director
Activity : Direct the preparation and use of plans and policiesAccountability : Plans and policies
The standard provides principles and not guideline
Is it improvable regarding the definition of responsibility ?
