The Enterprise Architecture Assessment Framework (EAAF) is created by the US Federal government Office of Management and Budget (OMB) to allow federal agencies to assess and report their enterprise architecture activity and maturity,〔(Enterprise Architecture Assessment Framework ), Office of Management and Budget, USA.〕 and to advance the use of enterprise architecture in the federal government.〔Pallab Saha (2009) ''Advances in Government Enterprise Architecture''. Idea Group Inc (IGI). p.133〕 The version 2.2 of the framework was released in October 2007,〔OMB (july 2007) ''Federal Enterprise Architecture Program EA Assessment Framework 2.2''. (Online copy (here ))〕 and version 3.1 in June 2009. == Overview == The OMB Enterprise Architecture Assessment Framework (the Framework) helps OMB and the agencies assess the capability of enterprise architecture programs to guide IT investments.〔(Federal Enterprise Architecture ), Office of Management and Budget, USA.〕 It also helps to better understand the current state of an agency’s EA, and assists them in integrating it into their decision-making processes. By applying the assessment themselves, agencies can identify strengths and weaknesses within their programs and adjust them accordingly. Enterprise Architecture Assessment Framework (EAAF) version 3.1 identifies the measurement areas and criteria by which agencies are expected to use the EA to drive performance improvements that result in the following outcomes:〔 * Closing agency performance gaps identified via coordinated agency strategic planning and performance management activities; * Saving money and avoiding cost through collaboration and reuse, productivity enhancements, and elimination of redundancy; * Strengthening the quality of agency investment portfolios by improving security, inter-operability, reliability, availability, solution development and service delivery time, and overall end-user performance; * Improving the quality, availability and sharing of data and information government-wide; and * Increasing the transparency of government operations by increasing the capacity for citizen participation and cross-governmental collaboration. While agencies have clearly demonstrated a degree of maturity and competency in developing and using their EAs, EAAF seeks to advance the practice of EA, particularly through the development and use of agency segment architectures, aimed at driving the kinds of government-wide outcomes.〔US OBM (2009).
