OFT's EA Process
Create an initial set of guiding principles that can be used to shape the decision making processes
Define the interdependencies of OFT's services. In other words, an e-mail product requires services of the data center, the data network, the EHD, and other items as well
Describe the "goal state" for OFT services
Perform gap analysis between the current state and the goal state
Create action plans to achieve the goal state that would be input to the portfolio management process
Create a governance structure for EA going forward, such that projects emerging from Portfolio can be examined against the EA. The governance body will also need to address the fact that the EA will need to be adjusted going forward
