Categorization and classification has been around for a very long time. Classical categorization first appears in the context of Western Philosophy in the work of Plato, who, in his Statesman dialogue, introduces the approach of grouping objects based on their similar properties. This approach was further explored and systematized by Aristotle in his Categories treatise, where he analyses the differences between classes and objects.

Aristotle also intensively applied the classical categorization scheme in his approach to the classification of living beings (which uses the technique of applying successive narrowing questions such as "Is it an animal or vegetable?", "How many feet does it have?", "Does it have fur or feathers?", "Can it fly?"...), in this way establishing the basis for the formulation of natural taxonomy.

The use of classification is an important tool in science. The use of classification reduces the complexity of a body of work easier as it exposes patterns and structures to provide a clearer picture of the area of interest, serving to assist in understanding the relationships, and acting as a baseline for thinking and working in enterprise tiers is not a new concept, however as business becomes more complex, the classification of the enterprise into strategic, tactical and operational aspects becomes a tool to understand the enterprise as a whole.
