Enterprise Architecture Planning l Structured approach to understand existing technology infrastructure and assets and to plan for future technology investments l Documenting existing business and technology environments and relationships between l Documenting the to-be business processes and the supporting future technology environment l Developing a strategy and transition plan for achieving the future state Benefits of EA Alignment of technology with business Reduced technology solution delivery time Increased likelihood of success for technology solutions l Improved & exposed integration between systems Reduction of needless complexity Better leverage of existing legacy systems Direction and guidance for future investments Mission-driven introduction of new technology Improved vendor leverage Citizen Service PerformanceMeasurement Technology Alignment Principles: City Technology Investment Guidelines l Leverage Existing Technology l Buy Before Build l Drive
