Index (Leading Practices in SIS)

The Zachman Framework (ZF) is a well-known classification system used to guide the development of Enterprise Architectures. It provides, in a two-dimensional tabular format, the topics that should be dealt with by architecture and other study projects. The right-hand side deals primarily with management issues, topics such as Motivation (WHY should the project be approved and funded?), People (WHO are the user communities to be serviced by the proposal?) and Time (WHEN will the various project milestones be completed?). The left-hand side deals with technical subjects such as Data, Function and Network. The vertical dimension deals with scope, from strategic concerns to detail specifications (the target audience also varies in this dimension from strategic planner to technology builder).
