Creating Strategic Deployment table

The content of the Strategic Deployment table are resources used by Actual Organizational Resources (Actual Organizations, Actual Posts, and Actual Persons) to realize Capabilities in a particular time period of the enterprise. Rows of the Strategic Deployment table are Actual Organizational Resources, and columns are Capabilities.

A relationship between an Actual Organizational Resource and resource is expressed by the Deployed and No Longer Used Milestones. There can be one or more resources related to the Actual Organizational Resource. The Deployed Milestone defines the time when the resource is started to use. The No Longer Used Milestone defines the time when the resource is no longer used.

A Strategic Deployment table can be owned by a Enterprise Phase. The context element for this table will be Actual Enterprise Phase. The Enterprise Phase element is related to the Strategic Structure view.

A relationship between a Capability and a context element is represented by the Exhibits.
