OMB Enterprise Architecture Assessment Framework 2.0
 Issued By: OMB - Effective Date: 12.01.2005, 380K, PDF
Abstract: Version 2.0 of the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Enterprise Architecture Assessment Framework is designed to advance the use of enterprise architecture (EA) across the Federal government. This document will serve as the basis for enterprise architecture maturity assessments of federal agencies performed by OMB. This document is a successor to version 1.5 of the OMB EA Assessment Framework.

The OMB Enterprise Architecture Assessment Framework helps OMB and the agencies assess the capability of EA programs to guide and inform IT investments' support of agency strategic objectives. It also helps to better understand the current state of an agency's EA and assist agencies in integrating their EA into their decision-making processes. By applying the assessment themselves, agencies can identify strengths and weaknesses within their EA programs and adjust them accordingly. As a result, the agency's enterprise architecture will help improve the performance of information resource management (IRM) and information technology (IT) investment decisionmaking.
