Enterprise Architecture Validation: Achieving Business-Aligned and Validated Enterprise Architectures

Overview The purpose of this paper is to provide an approach for validating what constitutes best practices in the development of Enterprise Architectures, and reviewing the state of the practice. The paper provides clear criteria for assessing and validating enterprise architecture frameworks, approaches, and implementations. Its primary source of validation is the refined Maturity model for the implementation of Enterprise Architecture Activities and practitioner experience in providing enterprise architectures to large commercial and governmental organizations, either as standalone activity, or as the driver of a business change effort.
