EA Can Not Change the Nature of Your Business

Advising on IT-Business Alignment. Neil states that even though EA is extremely effective, it is at best only shaping the way that IT supports changing business conditions and not “changing” business focus. New forces (new product launches and development, acquisitions and mergers, new regulations) will always drive business to further develop its technology focus. The best EA teams provide a way for organizations to adapt to these changes with the least amount of stress possible. Do you think that enterprise architects are realigning or “architecting” the enterprise?
