Change generally means impacts across IT,
often in the most unexpected places. Even in
newer organisations, such as the internet banks,
speed of delivery, through necessity, has often
taken precedence over simplicity.
In addition, large change programmes are used
as the main vehicle for the delivery of Business
and IT Strategies. However, it is the autonomous,
less conspicuous projects that will decide
whether the overall strategies are truly
achieved.
The EAS methodology is a framework for
introducing architecture management processes,
techniques and tools into an organisation. Over
time, these will provide the organisation with
the means to define and manage strategies through
the controlled evolution of their IT landscape in
line with the business.
