Which of the following is a purpose of mapping capabilities to value stream stages?

The purpose of this activity is to identify which business capabilities (out of the total set of capabilities) are critical to delivering stakeholder value, and therefore which ones need to be performed to a sufficient standard of quality to meet stakeholder expectations. It also helps to identify those business capabilities that do not contribute toward any of the core value streams, and which may be eliminated from the business.

The primary purpose of mapping capabilities to value stream stages within the TOGAF framework is to analyze how each capability contributes to delivering value to the customer. This process helps to identify:

Capabilities essential for value creation: These are the capabilities that directly contribute to the activities within the value stream and are critical for delivering customer value.

Capabilities with indirect or unclear contributions: These may require further investigation to determine their role in the value stream.

Non-contributing capabilities: These capabilities do not play a role in the value stream and may be candidates for elimination or optimization to improve efficiency and reduce costs.
