OBASHI® is a breakthrough in Information Technology thinking, which enables you to clearly see how your business works which in turn will facitate better decisions throughout the organisation.

OBASHI® allows you to create a visual map that shows:

How your business works from top to bottom

What the assets are that make it work

Shows the inter-dependencies between the assets

OBASHI® will make things clearer and help you make better decisions because it has been designed with one thing in mind; to help people improve how their organisations perform by documenting and modelling how people, process and technology interact to make a business work.

The OBASHI® methodology is sequential and consists of 6 layers:

Ownership

Business Process

Application

System

Hardware

Infrastructure

OBASHI® is designed around four key concepts : “with Clarity and Vision you can Develop and Improve!”

Clarity allows you to create easy to read diagrams which help remove ambiguity from business decision making.
Vision allows you to anticipate issues and challenges which can prevent a business achieving it goals.
Develop is about enhancing business capability through successful programme and project implementation.
Improve is about enhancing your business performance through better operational management.
 
With OBASHI you can design, monitor and optimise your business better; in a way which is easy to understand and, more importantly, easy to communicate across the rest of the business.

Whether your challenge is reducing costs, driving competitive advantage or both; you need to think OBASHI.

When you book onto your OBASHI course you will be provided with the OBASHI book, clear pre-course & joining instructions. The pre-course is currently estimated to take 1 to 1.5 hours.
