“…Notwithstanding the widespread use of digital twins in recent years [21] for different applications in aerospace [22], manufacturing [23], product design, production, prognostics, and health management (PHM) [24], Metaverse [25], humans [26], and representing the living and non-living entities [27], there are few studies on both conceptual and practical aspects of developing DTO [28] to improve business processes [3] and result in a simulable digital twin at an organizational/enterprise level. In this regard, this section reviews the current state-of-the-art in DTOs, covering aspects ranging from the concepts to the significance and the prevalent challenges associated with them.…”

“…To overcome the actual distance between real-world occurrences and information systems within organizations, Kubel-skiy [28] advocates for the development of DTOs based on ontologies, knowledge graphs, and enterprise architecture. This approach is similar to the concept introduced by Dragon1, which presents the Enterprise Architecture Blueprint as a comprehensive representation of an enterprise's architecture at various levels [38].…”

Digital Twin of the Organization (DTO) is a relatively new concept that emerged to help managers have a full understanding of their organization and realize their objectives. Indeed, DTO enables connecting all the elements of an organization virtually by providing monitoring, optimization, prediction, and other capabilities through continuous simulations. Creating a flexible and evolvable DTO that covers and supports the organization's business strategies is a complex and time-consuming task that requires engineering best practices. In this context, this paper presents and evaluates the EA Blueprint Pattern, which serves as an architectural reference for the development of a DTO by allowing for mapping well-known Enterprise Architecture concepts into software components defining the DTO software architecture. The evaluation is carried on by showing how to use the pattern for creating the DTO for a given organization. Then, a thorough discussion is conducted to analyze how the developed DTO should evolve to deal with vertical and horizontal integration. The lessons learned highlight the strengths and weaknesses along with practical implications for organizations that are eager to develop their DTO according to the EA Blueprint Pattern.

This paper is concerned with the question of how novel digital technologies can be used to enable IT governance to better deal with the need for more agility, flexibility, adaptivity, and connectivity, as brought about by our modern day society. We propose to digitally transform IT governance, in particular making it smart(er) by following a data-driven approach. In line with this, we present a vision for digitally transformed IT governance in the form of the DT4GITM (Digital Twin for Governed IT Management) framework, which exploits the Digital Twin concept as it is already used in other fields to monitor, analyze, simulate, and predict the performance of real-world assets. The purpose of the DT4GITM framework is to serve as a reference architecture for a technological infrastructure based on the Digital Twin concept that connects three interrelated systems -the IT governance processes, the governed IT management processes, and the managed organizational IT assets.
