Enterprise Architecting (EA) Process

EA is the process of integrating administrative and organizational systems with technical systems. Achieving structure and balance is a bedrock tenet in these processes.

EA provides top level technical vision from multiple perspectives:

• Operational View – captures enterprise requirements (who, what, when, where, & why)
• Systems View – describes enterprise technical solutions (how)
• Technical Standards View – imposes system constraints and guidelines

EA reduces risk by identifying shortfalls, capacities, interoperability gaps/enhancements, etc. of the architectural approach for the design. EA provides stability in a changing environment. While materials and implementations may change, the fundamental architecture can remain constant. This protects the enterprise against obsolescence and also promotes competition by utilizing an open systems approach. EA facilitates important work products and processes, such as:

• Requirements documents
• Configuration management
• Identifies key interface profiles (KIP)
• Interoperability reviews
• Acquisition/resource mgt (POM)
• Mission capability packages (MCP)
