The Itana Enterprise Architecture Maturity Model for Higher Education (EAMM) is a guide to understanding, assessing, and maturing enterprise architecture (EA) practices specifically in higher education institutions. It is intended for practitioners who wish to assess and grow their EA practices within a structured framework. These same practitioners may also use the model to facilitate EA conversations with higher education leaders who are considering initiating or expanding EA practices.
The maturity model is organized into Maturity Levels and Maturity Attributes (illustrated at right).
As an EA practice matures, it typically progresses through several levels of maturity.
An EA practice may mature differently in different attributes. The attributes in the maturity model are:
Scope Definition: How the scope of the EA practice is defined and evolved;
Engagement: How the EA practice engages stakeholders based on its Scope;
Impact Assessment: How the EA practice measures its performance within its Scope;
Delivery: The means by which the EA practice delivers value; and
Management: How the EA practice manages itself.
