4. Definitions
o Enterprise Architecture
o Frameworks - Structure
o Metamodel – Grammar
o Modeling
o Express requirements - dynamics and static relationships
o A writing system - Hieroglyphs
o Requirements
o Enterprise, Project, Solution
o Program Management
o Dimensions in Control
o Direction, Investment, Resourcing and Production

5. o Enterprise Frameworks
o Information Technology Biased
o Not Symmetrical, Balanced, Consistent
o Work, System Functions and Human Function
o Modeling
o Production Centric Scope – Not Program Management
o Human Cognition and Communication System
o Requirements
o Built by hand and consensus. “The system shall…”
o Program Management
o Dimensions and control not consistently expressed.

6. Standard Model Method
o A Standard Model
o An atomic model, not an element or compound
o Foundational dimensions
o Expresses control applied to dimensions.
o Expresses control applied between dimensions.
o Standard Model Method
1. Determine dependencies between “Products”
2. Apply Standard Model to Products.
o Standard Model Method Enterprise Architecture
o A modular, consistent structure of information.
