Enterprise Architecture Enables Processes Paper

Enterprise Architecture Enables Processes Paper
Purpose of this Assignment
This assignment gives you the opportunity to apply your critical thinking skills and understanding of the course concepts to explain how the enterprise architecture (EA) and/or the EA program supports the other IT management processes of an organization. This assignment specifically addresses the following course outcomes:

•describe enterprise architecture (EA), the appropriate application of EA frameworks, and an overall ongoing EA program

•analyze and examine how enterprise architecture and enterprise systems influence, support, and enable an organization’s ability to contribute to strategic decision making and to respond and adapt to the business environment

•apply EA concepts to support business requirements and identify opportunities for enterprise solutions

Assignment
As you have learned throughout the course, EAs can be used to support a wide variety of information technology management processes, and an EA program strengthens IT management activities. A well-defined and implemented EA contributes significantly to each of the phases of the systems development life cycle (SDLC). For this assignment you will write a 3-5 page paper (not counting any cover sheet or reference pages) that explains briefly what enterprise architecture (EA) is and then how it supplements and enables each of the phases of the SDLC:

•initiation/planning/concept phase
•requirements analysis phase
•design phase
•development phase
•integration and testing phase
•implementation/deployment/support/maintenance phase
You should explain how EA enables each phase, how it fits into each phase, and what unique qualities or capabilities a well-defined EA contributes that might not otherwise be available to the organization.

The use of at least two external scholarly resources (other than class materials) is required. You should use scholarly journals (rather than Wikipedia and author-less website postings). If you need assistance with determining what a scholarly journal is, the UMUC library is a very good source of information, accessed via the following link: http://www.umuc.edu/library/libhow/articles.cfm. Remember to correctly cite and reference all sources using APA format.

Enterprise Architecture Framework Research Paper

Enterprise Architecture Framework Research Paper
Purpose of this Assignment
This assignment gives you the opportunity to apply your research skills, analysis, and critical thinking skills to describe one of the enterprise architecture (EA) frameworks. This will provide you an opportunity to gain an in-depth understanding of one of the frameworks commonly used. This assignment specifically addresses the following course outcomes:

•describe enterprise architecture (EA), the appropriate application of EA frameworks, and an overall ongoing EA program

•analyze and examine how enterprise architecture and enterprise systems influence, support, and enable an organization’s ability to contribute to strategic decision making and to respond and adapt to the business environment

Assignment
Select one of the enterprise architecture frameworks listed below:

•Zachman Framework
•The Open Group Architecture Framework (TOGAF)
•Federal Enterprise Architecture Framework (FEAF)
•DoD Architecture Framework (DODAF)
•Treasury Enterprise Architecture Framework (TEAF)

Research and write a paper that describes the chosen framework and explain its strengths and weaknesses. Your description should include the framework’s purpose, scope, principles, and the kinds of structures it uses, as appropriate to the framework. You should find at least two examples of organizations that have used the framework and briefly discuss them.

Your paper will be graded on both the accuracy and completeness of your description; it needs to clearly and completely define the framework and its strengths and weaknesses. Illustrations will enhance your paper if they contribute to an understanding of the framework.

Your paper should be 3-5 pages in length (not counting any cover sheet or reference pages). The use of at least three external scholarly resources (other than class materials) is required. You should use scholarly journals (rather than Wikipedia and authorless website postings). If you need assistance with determining what a scholarly journal is, the UMUC library is a very good source of information, accessed via the following link: http://www.umuc.edu/library/libhow/articles.cfm.

Memo to CIO on Success Criteria for Enterprise System Implementation

Memo to CIO on Success Criteria for Enterprise System Implementation
Purpose of this Assignment
This assignment gives you the opportunity to demonstrate your ability to research, evaluate, and explain enterprise systems, and to communicate effectively at the executive level. This assignment specifically addresses the following course outcomes:

•analyze and examine how enterprise architecture and enterprise systems influence, support, and enable an organization’s ability to contribute to strategic decision making and to respond and adapt to the business environment

•analyze enterprise system solutions to make recommendations based on benefits, limitations, and best fit within the enterprise environment

•analyze and explain the elements of a successful plan for implementing enterprise solutions, addressing structure, processes, culture, and other considerations

Assignment
Your instructor has assigned each group one of several types of enterprise systems (ERP, SCM, CRM, etc.) to research and prepare a paper and an executive-level informational presentation. In Group Project 1, your team prepared a 2-3 page paper summarizing the case studies, evaluating the success of the implementations, and identifying lessons learned. For this assignment, you are to work independently and write a 1-2 page memo (not including references page) to the CIO that identifies at least seven success criteria for implementation of enterprise systems, for the category of enterprise systems assigned to your group (ERP, SCM, CRM, etc.).

Each of these success criteria should be briefly explained and then related to how they would be applied during an enterprise system implementation within an organization. Some areas to consider include the structure of the organization and its processes and culture; other aspects of a proposed implementation relate to the phases of the system development life cycle (needs analysis, design, development, implementation, maintenance). The case studies your group is using may be a good source of ideas as well. The criteria you identify must be applicable to enterprise systems (in the category assigned to your group) and should come from your research.

You are to use a Microsoft Word memo template. The use of at least three external scholarly resources (in addition to your case studies and other class materials) is required. You should use scholarly journals (rather than Wikipedia and authorless website postings). If you need assistance with determining what a scholarly journal is, the UMUC library is a very good source of information, accessed via the following link: http://www.umuc.edu/library/libhow/articles.cfm.

Remember to correctly cite and reference all sources. Since you are writing a memo, you should use in-text citations and list the references on a separate page at the end.

An example that is not related to enterprise systems but can give you an idea of what is needed follows. One criterion for successful implementation of an individual customer’s Internet connection might be that the customer’s system is fully functioning when the technician leaves the customer’s home. The explanation of how that would be applied is that the technician has completed the installation, tried it to be sure it is working, explained to the customer how to connect and use the system, and answered any questions that the customer had. As a result the reader now knows what one of the success criteria is and how it would be applied.
