Many organizations have Enterprise Architecture (EA) groups, but how many of those are as effective as they could be? An Enterprise Architecture program should focus on preparing the information that will help CIOs and IT departments make better decisions for the entire organization.
Too often an organization grows in a fragmented way, where certain questions are hard to answer. Do I have duplicative systems? What services does our organization provide? Does my data have integrity? What will happen if an application "goes down"? These questions, and many others, can be answered by an effective Enterprise Architecture team.
Lori Coleman has built usable architectures for various agencies and using various frameworks and tools. FEAF, DODAF, TOGAF and non-conforming architecture artifacts have been built and consumed by the relevant stakeholders. Even if an agency is required to have an Enterprise Architecture, but doesn't know how to make use of it, Ms. Coleman can provide guidance to senior leaders so they may find value in the EA work.
As with most projects, Ms. Coleman can build any aspect of an architecture, or work as part of a larger team developing full and detailed architecture programs. Depending on the need, Ms. Coleman helps to create a fluid team that will do the most effective work possible.
