 It also recognizes the hierarchy of these components and links them - from IT Capability to applications, servers etc. External events or decisions, all, have an impact on IT value.

-IT Value Mapping quantifies and visually depicts IT Capability of an organization. It creates diagrams, or value maps, to depict the state of key business and IT components at any given point in time. More importantly, it also depicts the impact of each component’s “state” on business value.
