TOGAF Phase G - Implementation Governance
In TOGAF (The Open Group Architecture Framework), Phase G, known as Implementation Governance, focuses on providing architectural oversight during the implementation of architecture change. This phase ensures that the architecture is being implemented according to the formulated design and that it meets the overall strategic goals of the organization.
Key Objectives:
Ensure the architecture is executed as intended.
Provide guidance and oversight to implementation projects.
Manage any changes that may affect the architecture.
Key Activities:
Establish governance frameworks that define roles, responsibilities, and processes.
Monitor compliance with the architecture and the architecture's principles.
Review project deliverables to ensure alignment with the architecture.
Facilitate communication between stakeholders regarding the architecture.
Outputs:
Governance documents that outline compliance requirements.
Reports on the status of implementation and any deviations from the architecture.
Recommendations for any adjustments needed in ongoing projects to align with the architecture.
By effectively executing Phase G, organizations can ensure that the implemented solutions continue to support their strategic objectives and the overall enterprise architecture.
