ANNEXTURE

The Government of Rwanda Enterprise Architecture Framework is limited in what it can contain. Trying to put everything that is relevant for the development of enterprise architecture artefacts in one document would be an over-kill and would fail to add value. This is largely because some of the complementing information falls within different though closely related disciplines. As such, different material will apply in reference to specific elements of the projects.

It is therefore necessary to develop the related material in separate documents and make reference to them. These will only apply when the need arises.

The following sections lists the material that should be used in conjunction with the Government of Rwanda Enterprise Architecture Framework.

  1. Government of Rwanda Enterprise Architecture Governance.docx – This outlines the governance structures that will drive the implementation of enterprise architecture across Government of Rwanda
  2. Government of Rwanda Enterprise Architecture Principles.docx – This outlines the guiding principles that will drive the enterprise architecture initiatives
  3. Government of Rwanda Enterprise Architecture Standards.docx – This outlines the architecture standards that each initiative will need to adhere to
  4. Blueprint Development Guidelines for Government of Rwanda Enterprise Architecture.ppt – this describes systematic instructions on how to undertake an enterprise architecture assignment
  5. Government of Rwanda EA Matrices Template.xls – this includes templates for matrices that will allow managers conduct impact assessment before change is implemented. The templates show the relationship between different architecture domains. The following matrices are included in the documents:
      • Application to Business Service Matrix
      •  Application to Business Process Matrix
      • Application to Functional Unit Matrix
      • Application to Technology Matrix
      • Business Process to Business Service Matrix

6. Data Gathering Template.xls – this provides the minimum required elements that should be documented for enterprise architecture projects. It is an asset that allows stakeholder to capture the information and share with the architecture teams.
