OMB Assessment Activities

Purpose OMB has issued the final version of its EA Assessment Framework

v2.0 to serve as the criteria by which DOI will be graded on its enterprise architecture completeness, use, and results

The DOI Enterprise Transition Plan (ETP) deliverable is intended to demonstrate progress and associated results (e.g., improved mission performance, reduction in redundant systems) in migrating from our As-Is to the Target architecture

Status: BLM EA team will be participating with the DOI EA through review of draft ETP and delivery of relevant EA documents starting the end of January with a final delivery of February 28, 2006

Future Work: BEA team expects to participate with the DOI EA team on a yearly basis to update the ETP deliverable to the OMB
