Abstract

This preliminary work aims to formalizes observed recurring bad business-IT alignment scenarios. This observation has been conducted subsequently to a 6-years empirical experience of audits of about thirty companies. It considers two research questions: (1) are there recuring BITA problems independently of the business domains? (2) how to formalize them? 14 BITA anti-patterns have been identified. A visual representation and an identity card are proposed to formalize them and illustrated on the 4 most encountered BITA anti-patterns. A first milestone is thus proposed towards a common base of BITA anti-patterns and open the discussion with BITA experts among researchers and practitioners, to pooling our efforts and identify research tracks. In fact, BITA is steel a crucial challenge for companies to have a good alignment between business and software. Moreover, handling misalignments is becoming much more sensitive for companies to move towards adoption of new digital capabilities in Digital Transformation challenges.
