Case Study: Edward Jones improves enterprise architecture planning and visibility with SAP LeanIX

Edward Jones accelerates enterprise architecture for 9 million customers with LeanIX

Edward Jones, a major financial advisory firm, faced challenges with a fragmented enterprise planning landscape. Their numerous development initiatives, or "epics," were scattered across different tools, leading to poor visibility, collaboration issues, and a lengthy two-year deployment cycle. To accelerate its enterprise architecture maturity, the firm adopted SAP LeanIX solutions to centralize its architecture and improve planning.

By implementing SAP LeanIX, Edward Jones created a centralized system for tracking initiatives, dependencies, and business capabilities. The solution improved collaboration and visibility across teams, allowing for more efficient planning and earlier identification of potential blockers. While specific metrics are not provided, the firm expects to significantly reduce its long deployment cycle and has successfully modeled over 200 processes to identify improvement opportunities.
