Application to organisation ownership and dependency matrix Every application has exactly one Primary, the unit accountable for it, and any number of Uses dependants: two owners means none, and the GIS row shows why reach matters, since four of the five units depend on it so no change to it is ever a local decision.
Application to organisation ownership and dependency matrix
The TOGAF Application to Organization Matrix for London Grid Distribution, a regulated GB electricity distribution network operator. Eight applications from the connections portal to the billing engine are rows; five organisation units, Connections, Network Operations, Asset Management, Data and Digital, and Finance and Regulation, are columns. Each cell is either a filled accent Primary cell marking the one unit accountable for that application, a calm Uses cell marking a unit that depends on it, or blank. Every application has exactly one Primary owner, and the GIS row sits on a soft accent band because four of the five units depend on it. A two-role legend names Primary and Uses.
