Abstract
Many of us can recall a time when a distinction was made between the hardware and
software supporting the business and the information used by the business – there was a
clear difference between IT, to describe the former, and IS to describe the latter. This
distinction is all but lost and along with it, the art of non-technical, behaviour-focused
and outcome-driven, Business Analysis.
What’s needed is a business-natural language that moves the focus away from any
technologies and towards business behaviour – as expressed in values, policies, real
world events and any type of information being exchanged. Such a language helps focus
discussion on the key outcome-affecting aspects rather than functional detail. An
example of such a language is called VPEC-T (Also known as “The 5D Lens”), after its
five dimensions; Values, Policies, Events, Content and Trust. It provides a simple and
quick way expressing requirements that feeds and augments existing methods.
This session will explain how and why VPEC-T was developed and examples of how
requirements analysis benefits from this approach.

we need to find
SIMPLE ways

.. and focus on use -rather than inner workings
Why and What before How

a misalignment of values

and lack of trust..

This challenge is gave birth to the ‘5D Lens’

We learnt:
Business people found it easy describe Day-In-The-Life stories around Events, Policies & Content
Important aspects of the Requirement set had been left undocumented: The Values and Trust aspects of the Information System should be explored early to avoid costly failures.
A Policy-Event-Content analysis pattern taken from Supply Chain Logistics could be applied to the information flowsbetween government departments

We learnt:
Use of the framework was extended to become an architectural ‘style’ – much like REST only focused on real-world operational needs.
The bank’s IT department found themselves a new role as Change Enablers. They were the heroes of the day!
The framework could be applied to the Financial Sector and was applied by colleagues with very little ‘VPEC-T training’

We learnt:
The simple five word model works well across geographies
This company saw $$$+ value in the approach in relation to their M&A and divestments plans.
The framework worked well with other tools &could be applied at a strategic level
within a global firm
