Projects must be aligned to strategy to deliver competitive advantages
Effective Enterprise Architecture means that projects will be aligned from the discovery stage, prioritized correctly, and sized accurately with both deliverables and change impact understood from the start.
Attributes of projects based in strong Enterprise Architecture:

Timed and Prioritized
Right Sized
Deliverables Understood
Changes Understood
When you set up an accurate and optimized EA program, you’ll be able to more quickly answer the questions that arise from assessing alignment.
