How it works

Easy to Start: Drag & Drop
Creating B&IT diagrams is easy using the versatile Stroma^® Tablet System™. With its intuitive and highly interactive interface, Stroma^® enables you to select an element (that represents a Business or IT resource) from the OBASHI™ Element Window using the digital pen or mouse and drag it on to your B&IT diagram. The element is automatically placed in the appropriate OBASHI™ layer.

The Element Editor then appears enabling you to enter a name, and business, financial and/or technical information relating to the Element. Optionally, using the digital pen write your information into text boxes provided. Easy…you have added your first Stroma^® Element.

Easy to Model: Connect & Report
Using Stroma^® you get quick payback whether you model a problem area or you begin modeling your entire enterprise. You simply select the elements you want to relate and then click ‘Connect’. You have a valuable, powerful and meaningful business model created in minutes. For the first time you can clearly visualise where the ownership and responsibility for your Business and IT resources lies.

One of the most powerful features of the Stroma^® Tablet System™ is its exceptional reporting capability. Select an element or any group of elements and choose from a menu of standard report types or tailor bespoke reports to suit your requirements. You quickly see the impact that change or resource failure would have on your organisation in business terms, financial terms and technical terms.

Easy to Scale: Share enterprise-wide
Because Stroma^® B&ITs place all your information in context, everyone in your organisation irrespective of role, department or position clearly sees and understands the impact that they or the resources they use have on the organisation. Stroma^® is scalable to the enterprise enabling diagrams to be created, updated, interrogated, analysed, printed, published or simply viewed from virtually anywhere.
