1. Integrated suite of process and system modelers allows for the effective and efficient development, management, and simulation of Enterprise Architecture products
   
   
2. Bridges the communication gap between business analysts and IT specialists using visual models, thus effectively aligning business operations and IT
   
   
3. Customizable framework mechanism allows you to "switch on" the appropriate modeling environment (e.g. DoDAF, C4ISR, FEA)
   
   
4. Bundled Federal Enterprise Architecture (FEA) reference models provide the basis for efficient architectural mapping to the FEA and the articulation of investment requests to Federal funding agencies
   
   
5. Configurable methodology features (e.g., DoDAF /C4ISR, IDEF, UML) ensure that the appropriate terminology, constructs and symbols are reflected in the appropriate models
   
   
6. Monte Carlo and discrete event simulators play an integral role in identifying opportunities for process improvement
   
   
7. Simulation and scenario capabilities support complex "what if" analyses
   
   
8. Suite of visual process modelers facilitate the streamlining of operations to gain organizational efficiencies
   
   
9. Suite of strategy modelers allows for the capture, modeling, and integration of all information related to strategies, goals, metrics, problems and implementation opportunities
   
   
10. Build and/or buy systems and components that truly reflect the business objectives and goals
    
    
11. Provides enterprise-wide global access via a central, web-server repository that allows anyone to manage, communicate and distribute business knowledge and models
    
    
12. Extends intellectual capital such as process definitions and documentation throughout the enterprise to the desktop of every individual
    
    
13. Interfaces with popular tools -Visio, Rational, ERwin, Microsoft Project and XML
