Enterprise architecture defines the vision, principles, standards and roadmap that guide the selection, deployment, operation and refreshment of technologies within an organization.   Organizations are turning to enterprise architecture to advance objectives such as cost savings, operational efficiency and delivering IT-enabled business innovation. Companies that invest in flexible enterprise architecture provide themselves with an accurate picture of their IT environment, enabling them to support new business processes, adapt to changing market conditions and leverage new emerging technologies.
To ensure success, organizations need visibility into their enterprise architecture to see the impact of emerging technology will have on their specific environment before it occurs, to manage transition and to maximize innovation. Accenture believes that strategic investment in enterprise architecture rather than reactive nondiscretionary spending to maintain existing, highly complicated and disparate IT systems is one of the most vital investments for driving productivity and growth. Enterprise architecture is not only a blueprint aligning information technology to the dynamic business environment, but can act as a monitor for the entire IT environment, uncovering gaps between business strategies and the technologies to enable them and identifying opportunities for efficiency and optimization. An efficient enterprise architecture allows organizations to determine if their IT environment can support emerging technologies and what effect these technologies will have across the organization.
