Abstract
Gartner predicts that by 2012, 40% of EA programs will be stopped due to poor execution and the failure of delivering business value. An organization needs a practical solution to achieve an EA vision. The EA essential approach should be that of business service and process orientation than systems and IT orientation. We propose an Actionable Enterprise Architecture (AEA) which is based on BPM (Business Process Management) and SOA (Service Oriented Architecture), and connected to service & process orientation and engineering. The architecture proposed provides traceability between service-oriented enterprise architecture and its solution. The proposed architecture can transform enterprise architecture from conceptual to physical levels (solutions) with a service and business process paradigm.
