Blueprint: Automating Business and IT Alignment

An Intellyx Brain Candy Brief

According to Blueprint Software, most enterprise organizations begin their development efforts in the wrong place. In its view, the modern agile toolchain starts too late because the greatest bottleneck is at the very beginning of the process: alignment to business needs.

The company aims to break through this bottleneck by offering enterprise organizations a way to model the desired business process and then automate the creation of user stories and test plans to deliver the desired outcome.

Using business-understandable language, the product helps organizations describe both what the system will do and how the user will respond. Product managers and business analysts use the resulting model to perform simulations and user walk-throughs to ensure that the software will achieve its intended outcome before a single line of code is written.

Beyond ensuring alignment, however, the company’s solution also aids with documentation automation and ensuring that software projects meet compliance requirements. As organizations continue to scale agile development methodologies across the enterprise, Blueprint hopes to help them to continually remove alignment as a roadblock to success.
