A specific system/application’s relationship to the different reference models can be viewed in several ways such as using reports, matrices, and diagrams. As with a complete reference model hierarchy diagram, creating the four sub-sets of the Reference Models for every system/application in a portfolio are similarly daunting and tedious.

iRMA provides auto-creation utilities that automatically build Business Reference Models, System/Application Reference Models, Technical Reference Models, and Performance Reference Models based on the OMB Reference Model information you have imported into the repository in the previous step. In this section of the tutorial, you will examine how to use these utilities.
