Asset Management Capability Model

The Asset Management Capability Model is a structured three-level decomposition of ~410 capabilities, covering the asset and investment management domain end to end. Use it to benchmark maturity, plan capability investments, and align business and technology teams around a common language.

Delivered as editable PowerPoint, Excel, and Word files — ready to customize for your organization.

What's Inside

• Capabilities matrix (Excel) — structured grouping of all capabilities
• Capabilities map (PowerPoint) — nested visualization of the top three levels
• Capabilities list (Word) — multilevel list format for easy editing
• Capability definitions — detailed descriptions at Level 3
• Capability KPIs — key performance indicators at Level 2

Coverage Areas

The model covers the full asset and investment management value chain — from core investment functions to horizontal shared services — decomposed into granular, MECE (mutually exclusive, collectively exhaustive) capabilities.

How Teams Use It

• Benchmark & gap analysis — assess current-state maturity and identify capability gaps
• Capability-based roadmapping — plan investments around capability evolution, not siloed projects
• Application portfolio rationalization — map capabilities to systems for footprint analysis and consolidation decisions
• Business-IT alignment — use capabilities as a shared language between business and technology teams

Who It's For

Business architects, enterprise architects, asset management leaders, and program managers driving transformation.

Why Buy vs. Build

Building a capability model from scratch takes hundreds of hours of brainstorming across architects, domain experts, and leadership. This model provides 60–80% of the work done at a fraction of the cost. Use it to jump-start your effort — or to cross-reference and fill gaps in an existing map.

This is a generic model designed as a starting point — customization to your organization's specific context is expected and encouraged.
