What are you trying to solve?
Well, do you know there is a problem?Are you repeating tasks?Do you have the same technology duplicated?Are there too many contradictory processes?

EA helps this
process
Do you need an EA? Not if you are designing a hut. You are building a city…Would you live in one without an architect?

So….
Will Enterprise
Architecture save the day?
In 2004, the General Accounting Office (GAO) , USA reported the following:
20 of 96 agencies examined had established at least the foundation …22 agencies increased in maturity,24 agencies decreased in maturity ,47 agencies remained the same.

IF EA is to produce value, EA should be practical….

So which path do
you take?
Business Architecture
Technology Architecture
Information systems Architecture

Generic Architecture activities in Technology
Easier to get buy-in
More demonstrable benefits and quicker results

Possible Deliverables (quick wins)
Reusable templates • Configuration templates – Reduce human errors• PaaS – Platform as a service – Less IT overhead• Common Documentation templates – Reduce time to research information, vendors
Standards• Create best practices (Implementation guides, change management etc)• Operational best practices• Compliance• Public documentation (mandate vendors follow common documentation standards)
Shared Knowledge base- Tailoring solutions to the academic world

Immediate value..
& one year from now..
Greater success rate of new projects
Operational benefits
Projects executed skillfully
Virtual Architecture practice
Framework = Compliance
