2. Problem The Multi-Agency Environment
Deals with emerging national problems of high priority
Security of international trade, passenger, and financial flows
Health coverage and care
Joint missions
Is more complex with very high risk
Requires continuous interaction and coordination across agencies
Mission activities, organizations, strategies, processes, information, systems, applications, and data
Architectures of participating agencies vary in detail and structure
Opportunity:
Enterprise Architectures (EA) are seriously underutilized;
How can they be used to support Multi-Agency Planning and Analysis?

3. Approach Focus on Mission Operations with Distinct Patterns
Repetitive services, Ad hoc proactive & responsive,.....
Apply Activity-Based methods to mission/business definition
Relate Managed Services and Components to business Activities
Mission-Centric Architecture
Integrates segments of Agency/Bureau Architectures
Defines necessary content of Agency/Bureau Architectures
Supports and empowers OMB-FEA Reference Models
Provides Web Services for planning & analysis
XML access to sources, HLA integration of Activity models
Executable Architecture for Performance Analysis
Couple Architecture with Dynamic Simulation of Mission/Business Operations
Do architectures have sufficient information for modeling?
Readiness Model
Supplements GAO EA Criteria with Interoperability measures
Addresses Organizational, Services, Data, and infrastructure levels

4. End-to-End Activities; Cargo & Passengers

8. Findings to Date
Enterprise Architectures can be a valuable resource for planning
The “Genomic Code of the Enterprise”
The Multi-Agency Modernization environment adds significant complexities
Requires more specific detail in Architectures and much more precise and uniform definitions of:
Activities; mission and support
Business Services (e.g. Managed Services, e-gov)
Information Services (e.g. Web Services)
Requires strong analytic capabilities
Dynamic executable capabilities greatly expand the role of Enterprise Architectures
Beyond CPIC, to
Strategic Planning,
Operations Planning, COOP, and
Performance Management
If the Architecture is of no help in modeling mission performance,
it is unlikely to support the real thing!
