Strategy sets direction, capabilities say what the enterprise does, value streams say how value flows — the operating model says how it is all organised to run. A Target Operating Model (TOM) designs the future across a consistent set of dimensions. Select a dimension to see its design question and a current-state → future-state shift.
A TOM is the bridge from strategy to a runnable design: it takes the capabilities that matter most and decides how they will be delivered — which processes, which structure, what information and technology, which partners, and how it is governed. Designing across a consistent set of dimensions keeps the answer coherent, so a transformation changes the whole model together rather than one piece at a time. It is where business architecture becomes an execution plan.
