Document necessary enterprise technology architecture design and analysis work, possibly including project postmortem documentation and metric collection.Identify the organizational impact (for example, on skills, processes, structures and culture) and financial impact of the enterprise technology architecture.
#Enterprise solution architect software#
Oversee and facilitate the research, evaluation, and selection of hardware and software technology and product standards, as well as the design of standard configurations.Consult on application or infrastructure development projects to harmonize systems or infrastructure with the enterprise technology architecture, and identify when it is necessary to modify the enterprise technical architecture (ETA) to accommodate immediate or future project needs. Oversee, or consult on, technology implementation and modification activities (for example, projects), particularly for new or shared infrastructure solutions.Assist with designing the governance, assurance and standards activities associated with ensuring enterprise technology architecture compliance.Coach, mentor and collaborate with technical subject matter experts and EA peers to develop technology architecture that enables and drives new business capabilities and operating models.In addition, lead the analysis of technology industry and market trends to determine their potential impact on the enterprise as well as on the enterprise technology architecture. Lead the analysis of the current technology environment to detect critical deficiencies and recommend solutions for improvement.Define high-level migration plans to address the gaps between the current and future state, typically in sync with the IT budgeting or other capital planning processes.Drive digital innovation by leveraging innovative new technologies and approaches to renovate, extend, and transform the existing core technology base and IT estate.Understand technology trends and the practical application of existing, new and emerging technologies to enable new and evolving business and operating models.


This includes defining the requirements, principles and models that guide technology decisions for the enterprise. Work with EA peers (e.g., enterprise, business, information and solutions architects) to analyze enterprise business context (business strategy and trends), as well as change requirements in other enterprise architecture viewpoints (such as business, information and solution) to derive the technology architecture future state.They facilitate and orchestrate the delivery of targeted business outcomes through technical decisions. They create deliverables that help develop target-state guidance (reusable standards, guidelines, individual parts and configurations) for evolving the technical infrastructure across the enterprise, in order to enable business strategy and deliver targeted business outcomes. Technical solution architects provide the leadership, facilitation, analysis and design tasks required for the development of an enterprise's technical architecture. Technologies may include data center, infrastructure, cloud, mobile and Internet of Things (IoT) technologies. The technical solution architect is accountable for proactively and holistically leading or supporting EA activities that create deliverables that guide the direction and development for technological responses to disruptive forces, and driving targeted business outcomes.
