Enterprise Architecture Consulting
Services (EACS)TM
is a proven source for research & best practices
based EA measurement tools, EA development & implementation
programs and strategic advisory services. Enterprise
Architecture Consulting Services is working close together
with the famous Institute
For Enterprise Architecture Developments (IFEAD).
In just five years, IFEAD has developed a world wide
position in the EA research & development arena
with its EA frameworks, methods, opinions and approaches.
EACS has leveraged this understanding of EA organizational
and technological behavior to develop their surveys
and consulting services to apply to a wide variety of
organizations with one single purpose in mind: Enterprise
Architecture is a complete expression of the enterprise;
a master plan which acts as a collaboration
force between aspects of business planning
such as goals, visions, strategies and governance principles;
aspects of business operations such as business terms,
organisation structures, processes and data; aspects
of automation such as information systems and databases;
and the enabling technological infrastructure of the
business such as computers, operating systems and networks.
Enterprise Architecture Consulting Services
can also help organizations with the adoptation and
implementation of the concept of Services Orientation,
an enterprise architectural style of defining
Business and IT in term of services. Where
SOA (Service Oriented Architecture)
refers to the IT part of this concept, Services Oriented
Enterprise (SOE) is refering to the
definition of business activities in terms of services
that can be directly related to these software services.
Enterprise Architecture Consulting Services
professionals deliver EA and / or SOA advisory services
via the web, at client sites and at EA leadership conferences
around the world.

Customized EA Consulting Process
EACS uses a four-phase approach for EA
process improvement. The four-phase model below outlines
our approach to effectively diagnose the key issues,
design system components, deliver the right solutions
and continuously monitor results. Each phase builds
on the previous one.
1. Diagnosis
Phase one involves assessing the root
causes of the issues highlighted by the Enterprise
Architecture Maturity Scan and preparing a recommendations
report. This report will summarize our findings and
address the fundamental root causes at the organization
level. During this phase we use data analysis and
various assessment tools developed from the survey
in addition to on-site visits and focus groups.
2. Design
Phase two builds on the objectives covered
in Phase one and helps the organization develop a
robust plan to address the issues. EACS will work
closely with your organization in the design phase
focusing on improvement areas, analyzing the issues
with data, and developing solutions and plans for
each improvement area. The plan will be a fully developed
and executable program based on the recommendations
in Phase one.
3. Deliver
Phase three implements the plan that was
designed in Phase two. We work with your organization
to ensure this phase goes smoothly. Training, explaining
and communicating are emphasized in this phase with
the flexibility to adjust when the environment changes.
4. Monitor and Improve
After completing the implementation of
the plan, we recommend continued follow-up on an annual
basis through participation in repeating the Architecture
Maturity Scan. The results of subsequent years scans
will show trends and progress while revealing other
areas that may need attention.
