Corporates governance: a complementary model for multi frameworks and tools

Abstract

Organization became highly needed to transform and convert the available legacy of fragmented solutions and applications, based on the structure of the organization and its related processes (either traditionally manual and/or automated) into an integrated operational environment with an optimized set of processes that are working to change and deliver the business objectives and strategy. Organizations always need a real interrelationship for different frameworks and reliable approach to be able to enhance. Such reason where EA framework / TOGAF in a successful practice. apparently, Enterprise architecture is the core and the heart of the corporate enhancement. to Align the EA "Enterprise Architecture" with a complementary framework is important to make sure for better change. The most common frameworks such as "TOGAF®", "PRINCE2®", "ITIL®" "COBIT®" give a proper approach in selecting and executing the suitable processes. TOGAF as one of the "Enterprise Architecture" entities can be considered as "Best-practice framework" for EA "enterprise architecture", as a change framework to set the principles that guide for Corporate/Enterprise Governance, that includes distinction between "Information (IG)", "Information technology (IT)", and "Data governance". They are all a supportive subset of process of the corporate. Also Data considered as a vital part of the. In the discipline of EA "Open Group Foundation" TOGAF the leader standard framework. Other IT frameworks process that have proofed major enhancement are "COBIT" (as an IT framework), "PRINCE2" (Framework for PM) and "ITIL" (Framework for management IT service). This paper, therefore, shows how TOGAF supports enterprise architecture and corporate governance, and how it relates to these other frameworks in supporting of the IT processes. It introduces the frameworks, and provides insight into their interrelationships. Also the paper shows the tools and programs that is completely difference from the concept of the tools and programs that always be used in developing the IT such as ERP, SCM, CRM, BSC, KPI and Dashboards. The focus, however, is on enterprise architecture and TOGAF and its affiliated frameworks, tools and programs.
