ENTERPRISE ARCHITECTURE2
1. Introduction
Enterprise Architecture is one of the massive technology that is being used in several
business as it have been increasing the operational efficiency in the working process. This is
one of the major aspect that is to be considered. The report discusses about the road map of
kinds of projects that are to be undertaken by the organization in recent years. Artifacts are
also considered in this section along with the operating model that is to be implemented. This
report also provides a brief understanding of the benefits that are provided by IT in the
operational field.
2. Discussion
2.1. Roadmap
The process of developing roadmap for GovDepts will be performed in 3 major steps.
The projects that will be selected by the organization needs to pass 3 major prototypic factors.
The factors are namely Feasibility, efficiency and desirability are the aspects that are to be
considered in the section. In the initial stages the feasibility of the projects that are to be
performed are seen, after checking the feasibility, efficiency of the project is seen and after
checking the efficiency of the project, desirability of the project is seen.
The projects that are to be taken after implementation of EA in the operational process
needs to be IT related as IT department is one of the most benefitted department after EA
Incorporation.
2.2. Key roles IT will be playing in the GovDepts
 Better the communication section: With the help of the IT implementation in the
GovDepts the communication process in between the employees of the organization is

ought to increase. This includes the fact that data sharing will be performed in a better
manner.
 Increase the efficiency of the operational process: With the help of IT
implementation, better analysis of the data that are required for performing the task
can be done. This ensures that there will be higher accuracy in completion of the
projects.
 Better data handling: Data that are collected are stored in a robust manner. Data that
are stored can be used for future projects as well as references.
 Reduced business cost: The resources that will be required for completion of the tasks
with the help of IT gets reduced and hence the cost that is required for completion of
the projects also decreases.
 Higher mobility: the data transaction process also gets performed in a better manner.
The data are transacted in a manner that helps in increasing the centralization of the
information that are to be distributed.
2.3. EA Artifacts
The five key Enterprise Architecture (EA) artifacts which would be delivered in 2-3
months are Considerations, Outlines, Standards, Designs and Visions (Niemi and Pekkola
2017). In spite of the variety of the recognized EA artifacts appropriate to every single type,
these five common types of the EA artifacts practically precisely define leading communal
things of all the associated EA artifacts. Exactly, these five common types of the EA artifacts
describe that what the EA artifacts define, the process of using these, the purpose of these EA
artifacts and the profits outcome from their practice.
