Technology: Five Key Questions About Enterprise Architecture for CIOs

By Dick Weisinger

Garnter has devised a set of five questions that CIOs should ask themselves to help them better focus on their business priorities.  Enterprise Architecture helps translate business vision and strategy into changes in the enterprise that can realize that vision:

1.  Make sure the EA initiative goals are clear, well-articulated and written down.
2.  Refine the EA program periodically to refocus and address any changing conditions.
3.  Make sure the EA program focuses on deliverables rather than specifics of the process.
4.  Develop good business metrics around the business value of the EA program, rather than metrics that target process.
5.  Make sure that an EA Governance body is overseeing the program to make sure the program stays on track.
