Enterprise architecture is leading IT 's way to the executive
boardroom, as CIOs are now taking their place at the management
table. Organizations investing their time, money, and talent in
enterprise architecture (EA) have realized significant process
improvement and competitive advantage. However, as these
organizations discovered, it is one thing to acquire a
game-changing technology but quite another to discover ways to use
it well.
A project of the Society for Information Management 's
Enterprise Architecture Working Group and edited by Leon A.
Kappelman, The SIM Guide to Enterprise Architecture provides
insights from leading authorities on EA, including John Zachman,
Larry DeBoever, George Paras, Jeanne Ross, and Randy Hite. The book
supplies a solid understanding of key concepts for effectively
leveraging EA to redesign business processes, integrate services,
and become an Information Age enterprise. Beginning with a look at
current theory and frameworks, the book discusses the practical
application of enterprise architecture and includes a wealth of
best practices, resources, and references. It contains the SIM
survey of IT organizations EA activities, which provides important
metrics for evaluating progress and success.
Successful businesses exploit synergy among business functions
and push the boundaries of process design. IT 's cross-functional
position uniquely qualifies it to lead process innovation. EA lets
CIOs integrate technology with business vision and is the roadmap
for implementing new systems, changing behavior, and driving value.
This book explores the vision, foundation, and enabling technology
required to successfully transform organizations with enterprise
architecture.
