Implementing an Enterprise Architecture

Participants will learn how to provide business value to your agency, meet associated needs, and address current "Federal EA Assessment Framework" requirements for "documented results" relative to OMB’s "completion, use and results" performance scoring methodology.

What you will learn

• How to develop an EA governance process that addresses mission and business requirements and results in the "completion" and "use" of your EA with documented "results" to improve your agency's effectiveness
• How to choose an EA approach that best addresses your agency's desired strategic outcome
• How to select and implement an architectural framework and tool for documenting your EA
• Effectively guide your business in developing an agency's targeted enterprise architecture and associated transition and sequencing plan
• Create and implement an EA strategy that effectively addresses current "Federal Enterprise Architecture Program EA Assessment Framework" requirements
• Develop a "to-be" architecture by: (1) assessing the effectiveness of your agency's "as-is" architecture vis-a-vis its mission and strategic objectives; (2) identifying duplication in services and the collection of data; (3) inventorying best practices; and (4) surveying emerging technologies and markets
• Reconcile a sub-entity's EA to an agency-level and/or federal EA
• Leverage techniques to facilitate effective communication and use of your EA
