Successful Architecture Implementation
Roland Woldt · whatsyourbaseline.com · 2025
Most EA initiatives fail not because of the framework or the tool — but because no one built the organizational capability to sustain them. This book gives you a proven methodology for implementing an EA or BPM program that actually delivers: from securing sponsorship and defining governance through tooling, team design, and measuring outcomes.
Written for architects, transformation leads, and the executives who sponsor them. Practical, direct, and based on 50+ real implementations — not vendor documentation.
What’s covered
Successful Process Mining Projects
Roland Woldt · whatsyourbaseline.com · 2025
A 6-step practical guide to planning, executing, and scaling process mining projects — from scoping the initiative and preparing the data through analysis, improvement design, and continuous monitoring. Based on real projects at organizations including the World Bank, Google, Fannie Mae, and TD Bank.
For data analysts, process owners, BPM practitioners, and anyone responsible for getting more value out of process mining than just a pretty map.
