EAFP: Enterprise Architecture Fusion Process

摘要

Enterprise Architecture (EA) is well-researched and well-developed concept, and even a two decades ago there were a plenty of frameworks in this field. However, the functional integration of EA at operational and tactical levels in organisations is identified as one of the biggest challenges faced by many Enterprise Architects today. To overcome this challenge, a comprehensive literature review on EA is conducted, which resulted with the identification of the knowledge gap. To overcome this gap, Enterprise Architecture Fusion Process (EAFP), a novel practical approach that demonstrates the capability of integrating EA activities into operational and tactical activities in respective organisation is developed, validated, and presented in this paper.
