    Short description: Process for developing a blueprint of an organization


    Corporate profiling is a process that delivers an in-depth blueprint of the organizational structure, its technology, people, processes, up-stream and down-stream customers and their relationships.

    Using this process, organizations are able to identify where the interlinked relationships occur. Profiling also identifies any common or causal factors between corporate, business and Information technology and more significantly, it elucidates hidden or not so obvious factors that would otherwise be overlooked.

    In order for comprehensive profiling to be undertaken there must be a common objective between the three business components (corporate, business and IT) and a level of executive support and cohesion that will drive tri-directional communication channels throughout the business components.[1]

    Information technology

    The process of corporate profiling ensures that all factors are considered, thereby significantly reducing the opportunity for Information technology Project Failure.[2] Corporate Profiling is the first step to undertaking an IT implementation.[3]
