Business Capability Models: current landscape and next steps for the EUNIS community

10 pagesPublished: September 20, 2022

Abstract

This paper takes a policy perspective on the development and governance of Business Capability Models in Higher Education. In particular, we look at the next steps in international collaboration around the Higher Education Reference Model (HERM) launched in 2021. The motivation is to highlight the European challenges and contributions to this concept. To do so, the paper draws on insights from the EUNIS EA SIG community. The paper also argues that ongoing work in the domain of interoperability underscores the importance of a common framework such as HERM. At the same time, EUNIS can build upon those experiences when collaborating on the development of HERM. The main recommendation of the paper is that EUNIS in general and the EA SIG, in particular, should actively engage in the future development of HERM. More specifically, we see a need to focus on the implications of translating the model into the broader European context.
