Top of FormBottom of FormEnterprise Architecture Enables Processes PaperPurpose of this AssignmentThis assignment gives you the opportunity to apply your critical thinking skills and understanding of the course concepts to explain how the enterprise architecture (EA) and/or the EA program supports the other IT management processes of an organization. This assignment specifically addresses the following course outcomes:describe enterprise architecture (EA), the appropriate application of EA frameworks, and an overall ongoing EA programanalyze and examine how enterprise architecture and enterprise systems influence, support, and enable an organization’s ability to contribute to strategic decision making and to respond and adapt to the business environmentapply EA concepts to support business requirements and identify opportunities for enterprise solutionsAssignmentAs you have learned throughout the course, EAs can be used to support a wide variety of information technology management processes, and an EA program strengthens IT management activities. A well-defined and implemented EA contributes significantly to each of the phases of the systems development life cycle (SDLC). For this assignment you will write a 3-5 page paper (not counting any cover sheet or reference pages) that explains briefly what enterprise architecture (EA) is and then how it supplements and enables each of the phases of the SDLC:initiation/planning/concept phaserequirements analysis phasedesign phasedevelopment phaseintegration and testing phaseimplementation/deployment/support/maintenance phaseYou should explain how EA enables each phase, how it fits into each phase, and what unique qualities or capabilities a well-defined EA contributes that might not otherwise be available to the organization.The use of at least two external scholarly resources (other than class materials) is required. (NOTE: More than two external resources are required to receive all possible points; see Grading Rubric below.) You should use scholarly journals (rather than Wikipedia and author-less website postings). If you need assistance with determining what a scholarly journal is, the UMUC library is a very good source of information, accessed via the following link: http://www.umuc.edu/library/libhow/articles.cfm. Remember to correctly cite and reference all sources using APA format.Submit your paper in Word format via your Assignments Folder as an attached document with your last name included in the filename.Grading RubricUse the rubric below to be sure you have covered all aspects of the assignment.Criteria90-100%Far Above Standards80-89%Above Standards70-79%Meets Standards60-69%Below Standards< 60%Well Below StandardsPossible PointsIntro-duction5 PointsA sophisticated introduction sets the stage for the paper.4 PointsA well-written introduction sets the stage for the paper.3.5 PointsThe introduction adequately sets the stage for the paper.3 PointsThe introduction does not adequately set the stage for the paper.0-2 PointsNo introduction included.5Explana-tion of Enterprise Architec-ture13-15 PointsExplanation is brief but clear; is complete enough to set the stage for the paper; and demonstrates a sophisticated understanding of course concepts.12 PointsExplanation is brief but clear; is complete enough to set the stage for the paper; and demonstrates a good understanding of course concepts.10-11 PointsExplanation is adequately clear and sufficiently complete to set the stage for the paper, and demonstrates an adequate understanding of course concepts.9 PointsExplanation may be only somewhat clear or complete; may or may not demonstrate an adequate understanding of course concepts.0-8 PointsExplanation is not included or little effort is demonstrated.15EA Support to SDLC Phases:The explanation of how EA enables each of the SDLC phases below, how it fits into the phase, and what unique qualities or capabilities EA contributes to each is thorough, clearly explained, uses sophisticated writing, and correctly relates EA to the phases; demonstrates a sophisticated level of understanding of course concepts, analysis, critical thinking, and synthesis.The explanation of how EA enables each of the SDLC phases below, how it fits into the phase, and what unique qualities or capabilities EA contributes to each is complete, clearly explained, and correctly relates EA to the phases; demonstrates a high level of understanding of course concepts, analysis, critical thinking, and synthesis.The explanation of how EA enables each of the SDLC phases below, and how it fits into the phase, and what unique qualities or capabilities EA contributes to each is presented, and correctly relates EA to the phases; demonstrates an adequate understanding of course concepts, analysis, and critical thinking.The explanation of how EA enables each of the SDLC phases below, and how it fits into the phase, and what unique qualities or capabilities EA contributes to each may be partially complete, may be only somewhat clearly explained and/or may only somewhat correctly relate EA to the phases; and/or may not demonstrate an adequate understanding of course concepts, analysis, and critical thinking.Explanation of how EA enables the SDLC phases is missing or shows little effort.(see below)Initiation/ Planning/Concept phase9-10 Points8 Points7 Points6 Points0-5 Points10Require-ments analysis phase9-10 Points8 Points7 Points6 Points0-5 Points10Design phase9-10 Points8 Points7 Points6 Points0-5 Points10Develop-ment phase9-10 Points8 Points7 Points6 Points0-5 Points10Integration and testing phase9-10 Points8 Points7 Points6 Points0-5 Points10Implemen-tation/ Deployment/ Support/ Mainten-ance phase9-10 Points8 Points7 Points6 Points0-5 Points10External Research9-10 PointsMore than two scholarly sources other than the class resources are incorporated and used effectively, contextualized, appropriately researched and supported, and synthesized with original arguments.
