Focus: Banking and financial services
Key concepts: Service Domains, Control Records, Functional Patterns
Adjacency: Aligns well with Orthogramic’s Capabilities, Services, and Value Streams
Used by: Banks, core banking vendors, financial regulators

SAP Enterprise Architecture Framework
Focus: General business architectureStructuring enterprise architecture in SAP-centric environments
Key concepts: Business Capability Map, Reference Architectures, Value Maps
Adjacency: Orthogramic’s Capabilities, Value Streams, Information, Stakeholders
Adjacency: Orthogramic is structurally richer and schema-first; BIZBOK is more narrative
Used by: Business architects across industriesand Initiatives are directly applicable for SAP-aligned transformation programs
Comparison: SAP’s metamodel is more vendor-specific; Orthogramic is open and technology-neutral but mappable
Used by: SAP clients and consultants, enterprise architects in transformation programs
3. TOGAF (The Open Group Architecture Framework)
...
Focus: Capturing why an enterprise does what it does
Key concepts: Ends (goals, objectives), Means (strategies, tactics), Influencers, Assessments
Adjacency: Complements Orthogramic’s Strategic Response Model — especially
Trigger
,Rationale
, andStrategicResponse
Comparison: BMM is more narrowly focused on motivation and influence, while Orthogramic incorporates motivation as one dimension within a broader operational model
Used by: Business modellers, strategic planners
