7. What Is Enterprise Architecture?
The ‘FD Test’
• OK, so what is EA? • “A disciplined way of managing
change where business
• Why the interest? strategy and IT are involved
• Being joined up, so processes,
information and systems work
together, cut costs and increase
A ‘thing’ quality and service to
customers – and stay that way”
• For HE & FE: More with less,
An ‘approach’ and better. Effective
information is key to survival
and beyond. The digital
business platform.
As Is >> To Be • The ‘3 Es’

18. Who does EA
We mentioned fourteen well known, large organizations involved with The Open
Group. (Their identities are omitted from this record slide set for reasons of
confidentiality). Their industries:
Finance 4
Aerospace & Defense 3
Telecoms 2
IT 2
Government 1
Seven are US based, four in the UK, one Swiss and one in the Netherlands. We
noted how the EA approach and TOGAF has been widely adopted of late across
the major UK government departments such as HMRC, DWP, NHS, Home Office as
their way to achieve successful outcomes to huge projects- and turn around from
the widely publicised and expensive IT disasters of the last decade
