Enterprise Architecture (EA) is hugely important for medium and large organisations. However, if nobody reads the documentation and it gets out of date quickly, it’s a tick-box exercise rather than a value creating one. In my experience as a consultant, EAs are not having the impact they should. Enterprise Architects are smart people.
