What Makes Good Enterprise
Architecture
and How Do You Get There?
by: Phil Homan
Tuesday December 17, 2013
Ever wonder what distinguishes good enterprise architecture from not-so good? Ever wonder how to take sub-par architecture, or no architecture at all, and build something that delights your organization or your client?
In this briefing, Phil Homan will take you through his experience joining a team in desperate need of EA expertise and leading them to produce EA that was recently reviewed by independent experts hired by the client to perform a �Solution Configuration and Operational Assessment� on their COTS installation. They described the EA as "a comprehensive and complete guide for understanding the scope and depth of the program." Their recommendation: "Ensure that all personnel assigned to any functional capacity within the program become familiar with the valuable content in these documents."
This discussion will focus on the critical decisions and actions that led to success in this engagement and others. It will also touch on uses of the EA for Configuration Management and quality improvement.
Mr. Philip Homan is the ECS Federal Chief Enterprise Architect leading a team of IT Architects in the development and maintenance of the Navy ERP Enterprise Architecture. He has over 36 years of experience in Enterprise and Application Architecture, Systems Engineering Management, Project Management, and Database Design. Mr. Homan joined the Navy ERP EA team in November 2010. Previously, Mr. Homan was the Chief Application Architect and Systems Engineering Manager for the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Enterprise Applications Development Integration and Sustainment project. For the past 11 years Mr. Homan has lead various IT Architecture efforts for the DoD and FEMA, including 18 month as the Chief Architect for Team IBM developing the DoD Business Enterprise Architecture (BEA) for the Business Transformation Agency (BTA). Mr. Homan spent much of his early career supporting IBM Enterprise Systems as a programmer, database designer, application architect, and, ultimately, as Chief Enterprise Architect for their worldwide Technical Support Services Division. Mr. Homan has a Bachelors of Arts degree in Mathematics from The Catholic University of America. Mr. Homan is recognized as a Master Certified IT Architect by The Open Group.
