Zachman
Zachman Framework The Zachman Framework was one of the first standardized ways of organizing the massive amounts of data that are collected in an Enterprise Architecture effort, and is used extensively in both the commercial and Federal Civilian worlds. EA Frameworks, LLC staff have used the Zachman framework for over a decade and are particularly skilled in its application in understanding and solving complex architecture problems. Enterprise Architecture is first and foremost about managing change and the Zachman Framework is a tool for understanding the elements of the enterprise, the relationships between them and how a change in one may affect a change in another. EA Frameworks, LLC provides consulting services using the Zachman Framework and related tools and technologies. For additional information please contact us at info@eaframeworks.com . The Zachman Institute for Framework Advancement (ZIFA) is a network of information professionals who understand the critical role of Enterprise Architecture in the ability of the enterprise to successfully participate in the global economy of the 21st century. To this end, the mission of ZIFA is to promote the exchange of knowledge and experience in the use, implementation, and advancement of the Zachman Framework for Enterprise Architecture. In 1987, John Zachman, author of the Zachman Framework for Enterprise Architecture, wrote "To keep the business from disintegrating, the concept of information systems architecture is becoming less of an option and more of a necessity." From that assertion over 15 years ago, the Zachman Framework for Enterprise Architecture has evolved and become the model around which major organizations view and communicate their enterprise information infrastructure. The Zachman Framework draws upon the discipline of classical architecture to establish a common vocabulary and set of perspectives, a framework, for defining and describing today's complex enterprise systems. Enterprise Architecture provides the structure or framework for the organization's information infrastructure.
