The objective of business architecture was the design and development of effective business processes before the unicist approach to business existed.

The unicist approach introduced the use of business objects emulating the organization of nature. This opened new possibilities to save energy, expand boundaries and improve results.

The object driven organization requires having a high level of maturity in business. It can be defined as the organization of processes and the use of objects to achieve the objectives that have been established in a strategy. 

An object driven organization implies the development of a maximal strategy that includes the design of processes based on taxonomic procedures to put them into action and also a shared vision that makes these processes consistent with the business.

The vision of the organization is the catalyst of the minimum strategy and requires to be sustained. If it does not achieve its threshold, it works as an inhibitor of the minimum strategy and destroys the organization.

The minimum strategy is based on the use and reuse of objects within the context of methodic procedures to ensure their use and functionality. This is sustained by an action plan (a “to do” list) to guarantee the fulfillment of the minimum strategy.

The methodic action plan implies that there is a system that is able to deal with extreme situations. Extreme situations are the cases in which objects cannot solve the problems “automatically” and need to be taken care of.

The entropy inhibitor of the whole process is the action plan. As such it needs to be structured in order to ensure its fulfillment. 

Considering the nature of object driven organizations it can be said that there are four different segments of object driven organizations:

1)      Function driven
2)      Objective driven
3)      Consensus driven
4)      Market driven
