Accelerating architecture value through established practices.
What does Value Driven Architecture mean? It means starting with the business outcomes an organisation wants to achieve, then using architecture to guide decisions, prioritise change and assess whether the expected value is being realised.
Many ingredients of effective architecture governance and management are repeatable. VDAF provides reusable processes, architecture artefacts, guidance papers and assessment templates that organisations can adapt rather than create from scratch.
VDAF provides a configurable starting point for architecture governance: decision processes, roles and responsibilities, review practices, guidance papers, assessment templates and reusable deliverables. Existing practices are retained where appropriate.
