Enterprise Architecture

Assess the EA organization. Identify capability gaps. Build an improvement roadmap.

Choose a rapid executive assessment or a comprehensive diagnostic. The site calculates weighted scores, compares results with prior assessments stored in the browser, and generates maturity-based improvement actions.

Executive

50 Questions

Designed for CIOs, CTOs, business leaders, transformation leaders, portfolio leadership, delivery leaders, and senior architects. Produces an overall EA score and separate Skills Index.

Comprehensive

134 Criteria

Assesses 19 EA organizational capabilities using evidence-based criteria, weighted maturity scoring, architecture-domain execution, governance, tooling, value, and improvement.

Print & Benchmark

Print or save a results report, retain structured records in the browser, and export/import JSON or CSV data for longitudinal and cross-user comparison.

Data model: completed assessments are stored in this browser using structured local storage. For enterprise-wide multi-user collection, export the JSON/CSV dataset or connect the same schema to a centralized database/API.

Structured Assessment Data

Results & Benchmarking

Stored records can be compared with future assessments and exported for consolidation.

Historical benchmarking uses prior records of the same assessment type stored or imported into this browser. Exported JSON preserves every answer and result; exported CSV is optimized for analytics and comparison.
Maturity-Based Remediation

Suggested Improvement Plans

Assessment results automatically select the appropriate actions for the current maturity level.

Method & Governance

Assessment Method

The model evaluates whether EA is institutionalized, used in enterprise decisions, measured, and producing outcomes—not merely whether architecture artifacts exist.

Executive Scale

0 Absent · 1 Initial · 2 Emerging · 3 Defined · 4 Managed · 5 Optimized. Not Observed is excluded.

Comprehensive Scale

0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10. Documented intent alone normally should not exceed 4; routine enterprise use supports 6; sustained measures and outcomes support 8; continuous optimization supports 10.

Prioritization

Focus first on low-scoring, high-weight areas and material perception gaps. A practical roadmap should normally limit simultaneous major EA improvements to five to seven priorities.
