ClickClickSome Basic Components of a Good EA Program

Enterprise Architecture (EA) is a broad and deep topic and sometimes difficult to quantify by novice practitioners. But with patience and perseverance the rewards will certainly come. A good Enterprise Architecture program includes the following basic components for starters:

  1. A vision statement describing the high-level goals of the EA initiative.
  2. An ongoing glossary of terms to facilitate better communication.
  3. An EA strategic plan.
  4. A forward reaching ROI statement of intent.
  5. A documented method of measuring ROI periodically.
  6. An EA Framework that can answer: Who, What, When, Where, Why, How.
  7. An inventory of existing business processes, departments, systems, etc.
  8. A set of detailed "road maps" to accomplish the goals of each Architectural.
  9. Domain area within EA.
  10. Plans for gaining executive sponsorship and management buy-in.
  11. EA models and blueprints to document the current Enterprise.
  12. EA models and blueprints to document the future Enterprise envisioned.

After 20 or 30 years of investment in legacy systems, can you afford to buy or build and then throw away your legacy systems? For some, the answer is no.
