from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The OMB Enterprise Architecture Assessment Framework ( EAAF ) provides a process model to evaluate the development of an enterprise architecture . It is assigned to the group of add-on frameworks and is one of over fifty frameworks available on the market.

development

The development of the framework is being driven by the American Office of Management and Budget (OMB). EAAF version 3.1 has existed since 2009.

construction

In contrast to the Enterprise Architecture Management Maturity Framework (EAMMF), which can be used from the beginning of an architecture development, the EAAF is only used at a later stage of maturity: the architecture has already been developed at this point in time and is now continuously evaluated and improved. It describes a performance improvement lifecycle for performance improvement.

application

The EAAF is used in the US federal agencies to identify problems in architecture development work and application problems.
