A business capability, or simply a “capability,” defines what a business does. Capability maps show what a business unit or domain does, not how or by whom it is done. Participants in capability mapping workshops gain a shared understanding of what their business area needs to excel at, regardless of organizational boundaries and technologies. This helps architects, business analysts, and project teams prioritize capabilities for improvement.
