Abstract

This study investigates how organisational and geographical factors affect the efficacy of business architecture in enterprises. Employing a quantitative research methodology, the research analyses data from a diverse range of organisations using ordinal logistic regression. The findings validate the hypothesis that factors like organisational alignment, industry sector, geographic region, organisational size, and adoption duration significantly influence business architecture's maturity and strategic impact. The study contributes to the understanding of business architecture's role in organisational strategy, highlighting the importance of contextual factors. It suggests that business architecture strategies should be tailored to specific organisational contexts, offering valuable insights for policy formulation and organisational strategy development. This research provides a foundation for future studies and practical applications in business architecture and enterprise transformation, emphasizing the need for a nuanced approach considering different organisational and regional characteristics. Key Words:Business Architecture, Strategy, International Business, Enterprise Transformation, Organisational Alignment, Enterprise Architecture, Industry Sector, Information Technology
