Why the bank needs to have a single view of their enterprise’s activities?

Architectural alignment across the bank’s large IT organization consisting of 26 tribes of agile teams was challenging. Information about the bank’s customer solutions, including its processes, services, and applications was scattered and documented in an ad hoc fashion. While it was possible to deliver the necessary information and overviews, it took a significant effort and time to answer questions about the IT portfolio. Moreover, information was previously gathered as if it was a one-time-only event.
