EA Maturity Assessment
One of the key contributions of TOGAF 8.1 is the adaptation of the US Government's Architecture Capability Maturity Model. This session will cover practical use of the maturity model not only EA processes but also people and technology aspects of EA as well as the EA deliverables. The presenter will use examples from real life usage of the basic maturity model and CC & C's unique value adds to illustrate application of this important area of EA Metrics, which is a mandatory ingredient for success for any EA implementation.

Around the TOGAF ADM in 8 weeks: A Pilot EA Implementation
EA does not have to be a long term planning exercise. In fact EA will fail if it does not deliver 'quick wins' and not expose show stoppers and road blocks early enough, before the organization invests a substantial amount of time, effort and cost. A pilot approach with defined boundaries, definitive deliverables and water tight processes, have been the ingredients of a successful EA Pilot case study. Come and share our experience based on an EA Pilot, powered by TOGAF, for a major international organization.
