18. Enterprise Architecture Philosophy 100 EA 100 will apply the following tests as part of the EA review process: Does the proposed solution adequately meet the clients’ needs? Is the proposed solution fiscally responsible and sustainable? If the above are true, when introducing new functions, features, or infrastructure, we will ALWAYS look at our current vendors and their products FIRST. This will: Ensure we are making fiscally sound decisions Allow us to leverage existing relationships and licenses Manage complexity focusing on delivering solutions with known technology that has adequate staffing and support Leverages native integration within existing vendors’ products, features and services Prevent further dilution of IT Services staff skill sets If we pass these tests, then we WILL license/implement that solution. ???
