Basis of my EA Maturity Model,[object Object],I reviewed some of these Models and felt that Gartner's ITScore and the TOGAF recommended US DOC ACMM are very good and also similar.

The Roadmap to Maturity,[object Object],Initial,[object Object],Managed,[object Object],Optimised,[object Object],Developing,[object Object],Defined,[object Object],CIO/IT SMT view the ,[object Object],EA Team as a resource ,[object Object],to assist them in ,[object Object],strategic decision making. ,[object Object],CIO/IT SMT have agreed to set-up EA in a limited way but are unsure of the benefits. ,[object Object],All Vendor Management and large procurement initiatives interact formally with Enterprise Architecture.,[object Object],IT SMT beginning to see some value in certain areas.

Informal EA underway,[object Object],The EA program, starts within IT and its purpose initially is often to try and bring ad hoc and disjointed IT decision making under control.
