The government's enterprise architecture assessment framework is going to change. The changes that are occurring are good, but can't happen too quickly, as reported by FCW.com. Kshmendra Paul, chief architect at OMB's Office of E-government and information Technology recently outlined the plan which will include finalizing Version 3's framework.
They are currently deciding which direction to take the framework, as:
Under both the current assessment framework and the proposed revision, OMB considers the degree of completion, whether the agency actually uses the architecture, and its results. However, the proposed one lacks the emphasis on recent concerns such as IPv6 migration and change management, favoring instead factors such as performance management integration and the alignment between the agency's enterprise transition plan and its OMB Exhibit 300s, which make the business case for proposed investments.
They also pointed out that the new EA system will most likely not be changed by the new administration coming into the White House.
