The Three Key Processes Which Define ERA™

ERA™ consists of three key processes which collectively address the human, administrative and organizational, and technical components of an enterprise. These processes include:

Enterprise Architecting Process – whereby administrative and organizational systems are integrated with technical systems to achieve structure and balance

Organizational Design Process – whereby administrative and organizational systems are integrated with human systems design and development to facilitate the choice of the appropriate organizational structural and governance

Systems Engineering Process – whereby the development of all technical systems is enabled by a logical sequence of steps toward deriving good requirements and transforming them into solutions.

This figure illustrates the concept at a high level. Design and analysis begins at the enterprise level and successfully works to lower levels including the strategic business units (SBUs) down to the cell or workshop levels.
