Capability
The ability of an organization, person, process, application, configuration item, or IT service to carry out an activity. Capabilities are distinct from resources (which are consumable assets).

Organizations often mistake resources for capability. Buying a tool (resource) does not give you the ability to use it effectively (capability). Misunderstanding this gap leads to "shelfware" and failed digital transformations.
Capabilities are built, not bought. You cannot "buy DevOps"; you must build the capability through training, culture, and practice. We measure capability not by what you have, but by what you can ship reliably.
