Chapter Chapter 4 in Strategic Enterprise Architecture Management, 2012, pp 81-110 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract An effective model for enterprise architecture management (EAM) governance and organisation is vital. EA governance provides project teams with a structure to guide their decision-making, especially with regard to solutions design and technology choices that optimise the value of architecture components across the enterprise. EA organisation design establishes the effective division of roles, responsibilities and reporting relationships. We propose that the architecture resources be organised into one or more architecture bodies, depending on the level of architecture maturity and corporate structure. The architecture bodies we propose are the enterprise architecture council (EAC), the architecture review board (ARB) and the architecture forum. We discuss different organisational structures and present different decision and escalation processes and practices between which you can choose.
