An organisation has assigned roles and responsibilities, and established plans for developing products and services. The scope of
Enterprise Architecture can be defined as encompassing the whole
enterprise with confirmed institutional commitment to deliver products and services, both current and planned with clear transition plans. This in fact would define the organisation structure, functions and the relationships that would facilitate the organisation to meet its desired goals. This is extremely essential for
enterprise modernisation. Development of the
enterprise architecture will typically involve, analysing the current
architecture which will be a process of description, documenting the
architecture “as-is” or “baseline”
architecture, moving on to a definition of the
architecture as it is planned to develop in the future - the
architecture as it should be or “target”
architecture which would align with the vision of the organisation.
