Description
The Strategic Taxonomy (St-Tx) describes the relationships between individual capabilities including composition, association, and generalization.
The Strategic Taxonomy (St-Tx) view specifies all the capabilities that are referenced throughout one or more architectures. In addition, it can be used as a source document for the development of high-level use cases and user requirements.
The intended usage of the Strategic Taxonomy (St-Tx) view includes:
- Identification of capability requirements.
- Capability planning (capability taxonomy).
- Codifying required capability elements.
- Capability audit.
- Capability gap analysis.
- Source for the derivation of cohesive sets of user requirements.
- Providing reference capabilities for architectures.
Implementation
The Strategic Taxonomy (St-Tx) view is represented by:
- Strategic Taxonomy diagram.
- Strategic Taxonomy table. This table can be used to create and describe major domain elements faster.
