Enterprise Architecture Summit 2008

Monday September 29, 2008 - Friday October 3, 2008

Grand Hyatt Singapore Hotel
10 Scotts Road
Singapore, Singapore

Held at the Grand Hyatt Singapore, this year's Summit promises further developments in the EA space, more in-depth discussion around architecture checkpoints and the ways you can implement enterprise architecture as a key business transformation initiative.

Over a period of two full days, the Summit sessions will analyse :

• Appropriate funding models to consider
• Deriving real value from your EA initiatives
• How to ensure the EA projects you work on are driven by the business imperatives
• Transitioning from an EA shop to service oriented architecture within the TOGAF framework
• The creation of an EA team
• Ways to effectively project manage your EA endeavour; and much more

There are also three workshops running alongside this Summit which will give you a chance to further delve into some of the primary issues you may be faced with in your programmes.

Three Workshops :

• SW-01 ~ Business Skills for ENTERPRISE ARCHITECTS. 2 October 2008
• SW-02 ~ Real World Deployment of ENTERPRISE ARCHITECTURE
• SW-03 ~ Methodology for Business Transformation . The US Department of Interior's ENTERPRISE ARCHITECTURE

Case Study Highlights

Schneider-Electric ~ Its an insight into the primary business drivers behind this EA initiative three years ago. We look at the key features of their methodology as well as the development of their proprietary framework.

BT Global ~ Mark Mamone, Executive Network CTO for BT's Major Programmes Practice and CTO for its Department for Works and Pensions (DWP) Programme, takes you through the approach that his Technology Office has taken and the challenges faced in delivering one of the largest Hosted Voice Platforms of its type in the world, against a federated supplier model and against the demands that the rapidly changing convergence market places upon us.

NCS ~ Joseph Chee will walk us through a government case study, examining this Department's need for developing their EA programme and the methodology and framework that they have applied to good measure.

Reuters ~ With some 16,000 staff in 94 different countries, the Reuters Group has been underway on the EA journey for the last eight years. We look at where they are coming from and what went wrong in the initial approach as well as where they are now and the case for the EA programme. We look at building foundations, getting support from management and capital planning.

Pelagic - We gain some insight into ‘getting your hands dirty’ – the idea and importance of getting actively involved from the beginning. We take a look at an integrated approach to the selection of the right EA framework, methodology and tools to use. We also look at the creation of an EA Handbook and what this means in terms of team training. All this is viewed in the context of a pilot project when the initial aim is to promote EA to the business owners right down to the full EA rollout, looking at governance, risk, compliance, quality, applications and infrastructure.
