This book constitutes the proceedings of the First NAF Academy Working Conference on Practice-Driven Research on Enterprise Transformation, PRET 2009, held at CAiSE 2009, in Amsterdam, The Netherlands, on June 11, 2009. The goal of this new event is to stimulate interaction between industry and academia in the area of enterprise engineering, as this field requires close cooperation between the two communities. The 11 papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 30 submissions. They provide practical insights and evaluations of theories in terms of experiences from real-life practice, as well as identifying practice-driven challenges for further research. The topics covered include enterprise architecture, business process management, outsourcing, and IT governance.
