G A O Accountbility Integrity Relibility Highlights United Sttes Generl Accounting Office INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY Enterprise Use cross the Federl Government Cn Be Improved Februry 2002 Highlights of GAO-02-6, report to Congressionl Committees Why GAO Did This Study GAO s experience with federl gencies hs shown tht ttempts to modernize informtion technology environments without blueprints models simplifying the complexities of how gencies operte tody, how they wnt to operte in the future, nd how they will get there often result in unconstrined investment nd systems tht re duplictive nd ineffective. Enterprise rchitectures offer such blueprints. Given the issue s importnce, GAO developed mturity frmework for enterprise rchitecture mngement nd reviewed rchitecture use in the federl government, specificlly determining gencies development, implementtion, nd mintennce of these rchitectures, nd OMB s oversight. Wht GAO Recommends GAO recommends tht OMB work with gencies to use the mturity model nd gency bseline informtion in this report in helping gencies dvnce the stte of their rchitecture development nd mesure progress. Reltedly, GAO recommends tht OMB ddress the impediments to greter use of rchitectures. OMB officils stted tht they would consider our recommendtions. Wht GAO Found Agencies use of enterprise rchitectures is work in progress, with much left to be ccomplished. Of the 116 gencies GAO surveyed, 98 reported meeting the minimum criteri necessry, ccording to the GAO mturity frmework, for stges 1 or 2 creting enterprise rchitecture wreness or building n enterprise rchitecture mngement foundtion (see below). In contrst, only 5 gencies reported stisfying the prctices tht GAO believes re needed to effectively mnge enterprise rchitecture ctivities (stges 4 or 5).

Historiclly, gency executives hve not fully understood the vlue of enterprise rchitectures; hence, these tools hve lcked the executive sponsorship necessry to become funding priority. In ddition, humn cpitl expertise in this re hs been scrce. As result, the risk is heightened tht gencies will proceed with systems moderniztion investment decisions without the benefit of this rchitecturl context nd will end up with systems tht limit mission performnce, often fter significnt unwise use of txpyer funds. OMB hs recognized the importnce of enterprise rchitectures nd hs moved, through its role in the budget process, to increse their use. We support these efforts nd view them s positive first steps. However, OMB is focusing primrily on mjor gencies, relying lrgely on gency submissions, nd is not using n independent benchmrk tht defines the incrementl steps n gency cn tke to mture. Unless it enhnces its oversight pproch to ddress these res, OMB will be chllenged in dvncing the stte of governmentwide rchitecture mturity. This is test for developing highlights for GAO report.

Dvis Chirmn The Honorble Jim Turner Rnking Minority Member Subcommittee on Technology nd Procurement Policy Committee on Government Reform House of Representtives Effectively nd efficiently designing nd erecting modern building requires construction blueprints tht define, mong other things, the building s fetures, functions, nd systems, including pplicble building codes, rules, nd stndrds, s well s the interreltionships mong these components. Effectively nd efficiently trnsforming n entity s opertionl nd technology environments lso requires blueprint commonly referred to s n enterprise rchitecture. Such n rchitecture includes descriptive models (defined in both business nd technology terms) to id decisionmkers in understnding the complexities round how the entity opertes tody nd how it wnts to operte in the future. It lso includes rodmp for trnsitioning to this future opertionl stte. Our experience with federl gencies hs shown tht ttempting to modernize informtion technology (IT) environments without n enterprise rchitecture to guide nd constrin investments often results in systems tht re duplictive, not well integrted, unnecessrily costly to mintin nd interfce, nd ineffective in supporting mission gols. Mnged properly, rchitectures cn clrify nd help optimize the Pge 1 GAO-02-6 Enterprise

interdependencies nd interreltionships mong relted enterprise opertions nd the underlying IT infrstructure nd pplictions tht support them. The development, implementtion, nd mintennce of rchitectures re recognized hllmrk of successful public nd privte orgniztions. Further, Office of nd Budget (OMB) Circulr A-130, 1 which implements the Clinger-Cohen Act of 1996, 2 requires executive brnch gencies to use them. Becuse of the importnce of these rchitectures, we reviewed the stte of their use in the federl government. Our objectives were to determine (1) the sttus of federl gencies efforts to develop, implement, nd mintin enterprise rchitectures nd (2) OMB s ctions to oversee these efforts. To ccomplish these gols, we surveyed 116 federl gencies using questionnire tht ws bsed on the core elements of effective enterprise rchitecture mngement s defined in the Chief Informtion Officers (CIO) Council published Prcticl Guide to Federl Enterprise. 3 We did not independently verify the dt tht the gencies provided. Detils of our objectives, scope, nd methodology re discussed in ppendix I. Results in Brief The stte of the federl government s use of enterprise rchitectures is work in progress, with much left to be ccomplished. Although bout 52 percent of federl deprtments nd gencies report tht they hve stisfied t lest those mngement prctices tht provide the foundtion for developing, completing, nd leverging rchitectures, only bout 4 percent report tht they hve stisfied the mngement prctices tht, in our view, re necessry to be n effective enterprise rchitecture mnger. The stte of enterprise rchitecture use in the federl government cn be ttributed to severl relted fctors. Specificlly, gency executives hve historiclly not understood the purpose, content, nd vlue of these rchitectures, misunderstnding tht in turn hs not llowed these mngement tools to receive the executive sponsorship they need to be 1 of Federl Informtion Resources, Office of nd Budget, Circulr.

treted s funding priority nd to overcome the embedded culturl resistnce to the non-prochil, entitywide pproch tht enterprise rchitectures promote. Further, skilled humn cpitl in the discipline of enterprise rchitecture is scrce resource. Accordingly, most federl gencies currently do not hve the rchitecturl context nd enforcement mechnisms needed for mking informed IT investment decisions, thus incresing the risk tht these gencies will build nd modernize systems tht re duplictive, poorly integrted, unnecessrily costly to mintin nd interfce, nd ineffective in optimizing gency mission performnce. OMB hs been n dvocte of enterprise rchitecture development nd use. Building on this dvoccy, the gency hs, mong other things, begun to ddress this importnt re in its budget interctions with mjor deprtments nd gencies. We support OMB s ttention to this vitlly importnt re. Nevertheless, we believe tht OMB s existing oversight pproch cn be improved by using more structured mens of mesuring gency progress in dvncing the stte of enterprise rchitecture mturity, expnding the number of gencies subject to its oversight pproch, nd focusing on governmentwide ctions needed to ssist gencies in meeting common enterprise rchitecture chllenges. We re providing the OMB director with the bseline dt, improvement frmework, nd recommendtions for mking these improvements. In commenting on drft of this report, officils from OMB s Office of Informtion nd Regultory Affirs generlly greed with our findings nd conclusions nd stted tht they would consider our recommendtions. They lso provided dditionl informtion bout recent nd plnned OMB enterprise rchitecture inititives, which we hve incorported in the report. Bckground Enterprise rchitectures (EA) provide cler nd comprehensive picture of n entity, whether n orgniztion (e.g., federl deprtment, gency, or bureu) or functionl or mission re tht cuts cross more thn one orgniztion (e.g., finncil mngement). The concept of such rchitectures first emerged in the mid-1980s, nd over the yers vrious frmeworks for defining the content of EAs hve been published. Our work in the erly 1990s identified rchitectures s criticl success fctor for orgniztions tht effectively leverged IT in meeting their mission gols, nd it dvocted federl gency use of rchitectures. Since then, we hve worked with the Congress, OMB, nd the federl CIO Council to recognize the importnce of rchitectures nd ssist gencies in developing Pge 3 GAO-02-6 Enterprise

nd using them. Nevertheless, our reviews of gency IT mngement prctices nd mjor systems moderniztion progrms continue to identify the lck of rchitectures s mjor IT mngement wekness, nd they hve produced numerous recommendtions to ddress this importnt re. In some cses, most notbly the U.S. Customs Service, our work hs shown tht EA mngement hs improved significntly. Enterprise s: A Brief Description Enterprise rchitectures re essentil tools for effectively nd efficiently engineering business processes nd for implementing nd evolving their supporting systems. In the simplest of terms, n enterprise is ny purposeful ctivity nd n rchitecture is the structure (or structurl description) of n ctivity. More specificlly, EAs re systemticlly derived nd cptured descriptions in useful models, digrms, nd nrrtive of the mode of opertion for given enterprise, which cn be (1) single orgniztion or (2) functionl or mission re tht trnscends more thn one orgniztionl boundry (e.g., finncil mngement, cquisition mngement, logistics mngement). The rchitecture describes the enterprise s opertions in both (1) logicl terms, such s interrelted business processes nd business rules, informtion needs nd flows, nd work loctions nd users, nd (2) technicl terms, such s hrdwre, softwre, dt, communictions, nd security ttributes nd performnce stndrds. It provides these perspectives both for the enterprise s current or s is environment nd for its trget or to be environment, s well s trnsition pln for moving from the s is to the to be environment. EA development, implementtion, nd mintennce is bsic tenet of effective IT mngement. Mnged properly, these rchitectures cn clrify nd help optimize the interdependencies nd interreltionships mong n orgniztion s business opertions nd the underlying IT infrstructure nd pplictions tht support these opertions. Employed in concert with other importnt IT mngement controls, such s portfoliobsed cpitl plnning nd investment control prctices, EAs cn gretly increse the chnces tht orgniztions opertionl nd IT environments will be configured in such wy s to optimize mission performnce. Our experience with federl gencies hs shown tht ttempting to define nd build mjor IT systems without using complete rchitecture often results in systems tht re duplictive, re not well integrted, nd re unnecessrily costly to mintin nd interfce. Pge 4 GAO-02-6 Enterprise

Enterprise s: A Brief History of Frmeworks nd Guidnce The concept of EAs dtes bck to the mid-1980s. At tht time, John Zchmn, widely recognized s leder in the field, identified the need to use logicl construction blueprint (i.e., n rchitecture) for defining nd controlling the integrtion of systems nd their components. 4 Accordingly, Zchmn developed frmework or structure for logiclly defining nd cpturing n rchitecture. Drwing prllels to the field of clssicl rchitecture, nd, lter, to the ircrft mnufcturing industry, in which different work products (e.g., rchitect plns, contrctor plns, shop plns, bills of lding) represent different views of the plnned building or ircrft, respectively, Zchmn s frmework identified the kind of work products needed to understnd nd thus build given system or entity. In short, this frmework provides six perspectives or windows from which to view how given entity opertes. The perspectives re those of the (1) strtegic plnner, (2) system user, (3) system designer, (4) system developer, (5) subcontrctor, nd (6) system itself. Associted with ech of these perspectives, Zchmn lso proposed six bstrctions of the entity, or models covering (1) how the entity opertes, (2) wht the entity uses to operte, (3) where the entity opertes, (4) who opertes the entity, (5) when entity opertions occur, nd (6) why the entity opertes. Zchmn s frmework provides wy to identify nd describe n entity s existing nd plnned component prts nd the prts reltionships before the costly nd time-consuming efforts ssocited with developing or trnsforming the entity begin. Since the lte 1980s, rchitecture frmeworks hve emerged within the federl government, beginning with the publiction of the Ntionl Institute of Stndrds nd Technology frmework in 1989. 5 Subsequently, we issued EA guidnce, 6 nd our reserch of successful public nd privtesector orgniztions IT mngement prctices identified the use of EAs s fctor criticl to these orgniztions success. 7 Since tht time, other 4 J.

federl entities hve issued EA frmeworks, including the Deprtment of Defense, 8 Deprtment of the Tresury, 9 nd the federl CIO Council. 10 Although the vrious frmeworks use different terminology nd somewht different structures, they re fundmentlly consistent in purpose nd content, nd they re being used tody to vrying degrees by mny federl gencies. The emergence of federl frmeworks nd guidnce over the lst 5 yers owes lrgely to the Congress s pssge of the Clinger-Cohen Act in 1996. 11 This ct, mong other things, requires the CIOs for mjor deprtments nd gencies to develop, mintin, nd fcilitte the implementtion of informtion technology rchitectures s mens of integrting business processes nd gency gols with IT. In response to the ct, OMB, in collbortion with us, issued guidnce on the development nd implementtion of EAs. 12 More recently, OMB issued dditionl guidnce directing tht gency investments in IT be bsed on gency rchitectures. 13 Similrly, the CIO Council, in ddition to publishing federl enterprise rchitecture frmework, recently collborted with us in issuing two dditionl EA guidnce documents. The first ddresses EA enforcement nd describes how n orgniztion should go bout ssessing whether its proposed IT investments re complint with its EA. 14 The second ddresses development, mintennce, nd implementtion, describing in prcticl terms n end-to-end set of steps for mnging n EA progrm. 15 More specificlly, this guide explins how to get strted nd orgnized, 8 DOD C4ISR Frmework, Version 2.0, December 18, 1997. 9 Tresury Enterprise Frmework, Version 1.0, July 3, 2000. 10 Federl Enterprise Frmework, Version 1.1, September 1999. 11 Clinger-Cohen Act of 1996, Public Lw 104-106, section 5125, 110 Stt.684 (1996). 12 Informtion Technology s, Office of nd Budget Memorndum M-97-16 (June 18, 1997), rescinded with the updte of OMB Circulr A-130, vember 30, 2000. 13 of Federl Informtion Resources, Office of nd Budget, Circulr.

Weknesses, Some Progress Found in Agencies EA We begn reviewing federl gencies use of rchitectures in 1994, focusing initilly on those gencies tht were pursuing mjor system moderniztion progrms tht were high-risk. These included the Ntionl Wether Service system moderniztion, 16 the Federl Avition Administrtion ir trffic control moderniztion, 17 nd the Internl Revenue Service tx systems moderniztion. 18 Generlly, we reported tht these gencies EAs were incomplete, nd we mde recommendtions tht they develop nd implement complete EAs to guide their moderniztion efforts. Since then, we hve reviewed rchitecture mngement t other federl gencies, including the Deprtment of Eduction, 19 Customs Service, 20 Immigrtion nd Nturliztion Service, 21 nd Centers for Medicre nd Medicid Services, 22 nd we hve reviewed the use of EAs for certin 16 Wether Forecsting: Systems Needed for Ntionl Wether Service Moderniztion (GAO/AIMD-94-28, Mrch 11, 1994). 17 Air Trffic Control: Complete nd Enforced Needed for FAA Systems Moderniztion (GAO/AIMD-97-30, Februry 3, 1997). 18 Tx Systems Moderniztion: Blueprint Is Good Strt but t Yet Sufficiently Complete to Build or Acquire Systems (GAO/AIMD/GGD-98-54, Februry 24, 1998). 19 Student Finncil Aid Informtion: Systems Needed to Improve Progrms Efficiency (GAO/AIMD-97-122, July 29, 1997). 20 Customs Service Moderniztion: Must Be Complete nd Enforced to Effectively Build nd Mintin Systems (GAO/AIMD-98-70, My 5, 1998). 21 Informtion Technology: INS Needs to Better Mnge the Development of Its Enterprise (GAO/AIMD-00-212, August 1, 2000). 22 Medicre: Informtion Systems Moderniztion Needs Stronger nd Support (GAO-01-824, September 20, 2001).

gency functionl res, such s DOD finncil mngement, 23 logistics mngement, 24 nd combt identifiction. 25 These reviews hve continued to identify the bsence of complete nd enforced EAs, which in turn hve led to gency business opertions, systems, nd dt tht re stovepiped, duplictive, nd incomptible, nd hve forced gencies either not to shre dt or to depend on expensive, custom-developed interfce systems to do so. In response to our recommendtions, some gencies hve mde progress, prticulrly those t which our recommendtions were mde mny yers go. However, this progress hs tken considerble time to chieve. Other gencies hve yet to mke much progress. The most notble exception to this is the Customs Service, which completed n EA s well s the mngement controls for mintining it nd enforcing IT investments complince with it in pproximtely 1 yer. A Frmework to Assist Agencies in Mnging Their EA Efforts The bility to effectively mnge n ctivity requires useful mesures of ctivity sttus in reltion to stndrd. In the cse of federl gencies EA efforts, no such stndrd or method for mesuring sttus nd progress over time hs existed. Accordingly, we hve developed n initil version of n EA mngement mturity frmework to serve s this stndrd tht is bsed on the core elements from the CIO Council published prcticl guide for EA mngement. Specificlly, we rrnged these core elements into series of five hierrchicl stges bsed on the implicit dependencies mong these elements ddressed in the guide. We lso ctegorized these core elements into ttributes ssocited with effectively dischrging ny mngement function nmely, elements tht demonstrte orgniztionl commitment, such s policies nd pprovls; elements tht provide the cpbility to stisfy the commitment, such s ssignment of orgniztionl roles nd responsibilities; elements tht demonstrte stisfction of the 23 Informtion Technology: Needed to Guide Moderniztion of DOD s Finncil Opertions (GAO-01-525, My 17, 2001). 24 Informtion Technology: DLA Should Strengthen Business Systems Moderniztion nd Investment Activities (GAO-01-631, June 29, 2001). 25 Combt Identifiction Systems: Strengthened Efforts Needed to Ensure Required Cpbilities (GAO-01-632, June 25, 2001).

Further, steering committee or group tht hs responsibility for directing nd overseeing the development hs been estblished nd the membership of the steering committee is comprised of business nd IT representtives. At Stge 2, the gency either hs plns for developing or hs begun development of t lest some of the necessry EA products. This stge lso requires the gency to hve selected both frmework tht will be the bsis for the nture nd content of the specific products it plns to develop, nd n utomted tool to help in the development. Stge 3: focuses on ctul development of EA products. At Stge 3, the gency hs defined the scope of its EA s encompssing the entire enterprise, whether orgniztionbsed or function-bsed, nd it hs written nd pproved policy demonstrting institutionl commitment.

Further, the products re to describe the current (i.e., s is ) nd future (i.e., to be ) sttes nd the pln for trnsitioning from current to future stte (i.e., sequencing pln). Also, s the rchitecture products re being developed, they re to be subject to configurtion control. EA is chrcterized by complete nd pproved EA products tht the gency cn use to help select nd control its portfolio of IT investments. The complete products describe the gency in business, dt, pplictions, nd technology terms. Also, the products re complete in tht they describe the gency s current nd future sttes nd the trnsition pln for sequencing from the current stte to the future stte.

All Agencies Hve Initited Some EA Activities, but Most Lck Core Elements According to our survey results, the federl government s whole hs not reched mture stte of EA mngement.

At the other extreme, only bout 4 percent of federl gencies EA efforts hve mtured to the point tht they cn be considered effective, 27 with only one gency, the Customs Service, ttining the highest stge of mturity. This overll stte of mturity is consistent for ech of the three components tht mke up the 116 federl gencies tht we surveyed: deprtments (e.g., Deprtment of the Tresury), deprtment component gencies (e.g., Internl Revenue Service), nd independent gencies (e.g., Socil Security Administrtion).

Despite this less-thn-mture stte of ffirs, our survey reveled some signs of progress. For exmple, most gencies re performing certin core elements of our mturity frmework, such s using specific EA frmework nd utomted tool. Moreover, bout 82 percent of those gencies t given mturity stge re lso reportedly performing one or more core elements ssocited with higher mturity stge. Other relevnt EA mngement informtion, such s costs nd benefits, ws lso reported by gencies tht we surveyed. Ech of these res is discussed in greter detil below. It is extremely importnt tht federl gencies dvnce the stte of their EA mturity. Without well-defined nd used rchitectures, gencies will likely continue the sme IT investment prctices of the pst, prctices tht hve produced nonintegrted, duplictive, nd suboptimized gency opertions nd supporting IT environments. Most Agencies Are Performing Certin Mturity Frmework Core Elements Regrdless of individul gencies mturity levels, most gencies (75 percent or more) report performing certin core elements relted to stges 2 nd 3 of our frmework, nd thus the prospects for future improvements in the stte of the federl government s EA mturity re promising. For exmple, t lest three out of four gencies re performing four core elements relted to (stge 2). Specificlly, 75 percent of gencies hve estblished progrm office responsible for EA development; 75 percent of gencies hve selected n rchitecture frmework nd n utomted development nd mintennce tool; 81 percent of gencies pln for their rchitecture products to describe the enterprise in one or more of the following terms: business, dt, pplictions, or technology; nd 82 percent of gencies pln their rchitecture products to describe one or more of the following: the s is environment, the to be environment, or the sequencing pln. Most gencies lso report performing three core elements relted to (stge 3). Specificlly, 76 percent of gencies hve scoped their EA to cover the entire enterprise; 77 percent of gencies pln for their EA products to describe the enterprise in ll of the following terms: business, dt, pplictions, nd technology; nd 77 percent of gencies pln their EA products to describe ll of the following: the s is environment, the to be environment, nd the sequencing pln.

Most Agencies Are Performing Core Elements Associted with Higher Mturity Stge Although n gency my meet ll the core elements ssocited with only one prticulr mturity stge, this gency could lso be performing one or more core elements ssocited with higher mturity stges. Our nlysis of survey results shows tht this is frequently the cse. In fct, 82 percent of gencies in stge 1 through stge 4 re performing t lest one core element bove their current mturity stge. In prticulr, of the 56 gencies t stge 1, 35 re performing core elements tht meet t lest one of the criteri in stge 2 through stge 5. Moreover, some of these gencies need to stisfy only one dditionl core element in order to dvnce one or more mturity stges, mening tht the opportunity exists for some gencies to quickly dvnce their respective EA mturity levels. About 46 percent of the gencies (53 out of 115) need to stisfy only one dditionl core element to dvnce to t lest the next mturity stge. 28 Moreover, 8 of these gencies could dvnce two stges by stisfying just one dditionl core element, nd one gency, the Defense Contrct Audit Agency, could climb three stges (from stge 2 to stge 5) by stisfying just one dditionl core element. About 9 percent of the gencies (10 out of 115) need to stisfy only two core elements in order to dvnce two mturity stges, nd 3 percent (4 out of 115) need to stisfy three dditionl core elements to dvnce three mturity stges. One gency, the Defense Legl Services Agency, could dvnce from stge 1 to stge 5 by stisfying only two dditionl core elements. As noted bove, the Food nd Drug Administrtion nd the Interntionl Trde Administrtion, which re currently stge 1 gencies, could dvnce to stge 5 by stisfying totl of four dditionl core elements, one t ech of stges 2 through 5. Deprtmentl Ledership Cn Influence the Mturity of the Component Agencies Of the 14 cbinet-level deprtments, ll of which responded to our survey, 6 hve estblished policy governing the development of EA by their component gencies; 8 hve not. Our nlysis of the mturity level of component gencies, using resmpling methods, provides sttisticl evidence tht the verge mturity level of component gencies in deprtments with n EA policy is higher thn the verge mturity level of component gencies in deprtments without n EA policy. Specificlly, the 28 One of the 116 gencies included in our nlysis hs chieved stge 5 of our frmework (i.e., stisfied ll the core elements). Pge 15 GAO-02-6 Enterprise

verge mturity level of the component gencies within deprtments tht hve deprtmentwide policies is 1.9, while the verge mturity level of the component gencies within deprtments tht do not hve policy is 1.5. The Deprtments of Commerce nd the Tresury, for exmple, which both hve deprtmentwide policy, hve verge EA mturity levels of 2.2 for their component gencies. In contrst, no deprtment tht lcks policy hs n verge EA mturity level higher thn 1.7. Avilble Agency EA Cost Dt Show Vribility As discussed in the CIO Council published EA mngement prcticl guide, the scope nd nture of the enterprise nd the extent of enterprise trnsformtion nd moderniztion envisioned will dictte the depth nd detil of the rchitecture to be developed nd mintined. Thus, the EA hs to be tilored to the individul enterprise nd tht enterprise s intended use of the rchitecture. Accordingly, the level of resources tht n gency invests in its EA is likely to vry. Our survey dt showed considerble vribility mong gencies in the cost to develop nd mintin EAs. For those gencies tht reported hving completed n EA, the ctul development costs tht they reported rnged from $70,000 to $18.2 million. (See tble 1.) In developing this rnge, we only included those 14 gencies tht stisfied our mturity frmework s definition of complete EA (i.e., the EA products describe the enterprise s business nd the dt, pplictions, nd technology tht support it; the EA products describe the s is environment, to be environment, nd the pln for sequencing from the s is to the to be ; nd the gency CIO hs pproved the EA). In doing so, we did not include EA development cost dt reported by 31 other gencies becuse they did not stisfy our mturity frmework s definition of complete EA. For the 14 gencies tht hd completed EAs, the nnul costs reported for rchitecture mintennce rnged from $30,000 to $1.5 million. (See tble 1.) Pge 16 GAO-02-6 Enterprise

OMB Hs Promoted nd Is Overseeing EA Efforts, but Opportunities Exist to Strengthen Oversight Approch Performnce mesurement is core tenet of the Government Performnce nd Results Act of 1993. 31 In essence, it codifies the widely recognized nd ccepted mngement xiom tht one cnnot mnge wht one cnnot mesure. Without the bility to mesure performnce nd progress, mngement s bility to oversee given progrm is gretly diminished, nd the opportunities to effectively ensure tht gols nd objectives re met re lost. OMB recognizes the importnce of EAs nd, since the 1996 pssge of the Clinger-Cohen Act, hs cted to promote them. For exmple, OMB (1) issued guidnce on the purpose nd use of enterprise rchitectures shortly fter the ct ws pssed, 32 (2) issued subsequent guidnce directing tht gency investment in IT be bsed on gency EAs, 33 nd (3) beginning with the fiscl yer 2002 budget cycle, required gency budget submissions to show IT investments in severl res, including rchitecture development. 34 Beginning with the fiscl yer 2003 budget cycle, it lso required the deprtments nd mjor gencies tht re CIO Council members to ddress how IT investment decisionmking ddresses rchitecture lignment nd, in cses in which n gency does not hve n rchitecture, to provide pln for developing one. 35 In this ltter cse, OMB officils told us, they re lso holding meetings with gencies to ensure tht proposed IT investments re justified until n rchitecture is completed 31 Government Performnce nd Results Act of 1993, Public Lw. 103-62, August 3, 1993. 32 Informtion Technology s, Office of nd Budget Memorndum M-97-16 (June 18, 1997). 33 of Federl Informtion Resources, Office of nd Budget, Circulr.

nd integrted into the gency s cpitl plnning nd investment control processes. Other steps tht OMB hs tken re: (1) to ssess the sttus of mjor deprtment nd gency rchitectures ginst selected CIO Council guidnce; (2) to elevte the CIO Council s level of focus nd ttention on EA mngement by, for exmple, estblishing n enterprise rchitecture committee; nd (3) to begin developing business-level rchitecturl views of certin governmentwide missions or functions, such s disster prepredness, grnts nd lons, nd lw enforcement. OMB s incresed ttention to nd oversight of federl enterprise rchitecture re centrl to dvncing the federl government s stte of rchitecture mturity. However, OMB s existing oversight pproch focuses on mjor gencies nd relies lrgely on unverified gency submissions. This pproch cn be strengthened by using more structured mens of mesuring gency rchitecture sttus nd progress, expnding the number of gencies covered, nd identifying nd pursuing governmentwide solutions to common enterprise rchitecture chllenges tht gencies fce. Without enhncing its governmentwide pproch to overseeing EA use nd employing stndrd tht systemticlly specifies the core elements of rchitecture mngement success nd prcticl wy to mesure gency efforts ginst this stndrd over time, OMB will be chllenged in leding nd ttining governmentwide mturtion in this importnt re. Conclusions The current stte of the federl government s use of EAs is mixed, but overll it is not sufficiently mture to support well-informed IT investment decisionmking. As result, most federl gencies currently run the serious risk of investing in IT solutions tht will not overcome but will, rther, perpetute longstnding incomptibilities nd dupliction within gency opertionl nd systems environments. With recently issued federl guidnce nd incresed OMB ttention to EA mngement, however, the outlook for dvncement in federl gency EA mturity holds promise. Nevertheless, opportunities exist to significntly improve this outlook by OMB s dopting governmentwide, structured, nd systemtic pproch to promoting EA use, mesuring gency progress, nd identifying the need for governmentwide EA mngement chllenges. The EA mturity frmework nd the survey results contined in this report provide OMB, possibly in collbortion with the federl CIO Council, with the foundtion for dopting such n pproch.

Recommendtions for Executive Action To ssist in its oversight of federl gencies use of EAs, we recommend tht the OMB director, in collbortion with the federl CIO Council, use the mturity frmework nd gency bseline informtion provided in this report s the bsis for helping gencies to dvnce the stte of their respective EA development, implementtion, nd mintennce efforts, nd for mesuring gency progress. In doing so, we further recommend tht the OMB director require ech of the gencies discussed in this report to (1) submit to OMB n nnul updte of the gency s stisfction of ech of the core elements contined in the mturity frmework, nd (2) hve this updte verified by the gency s inspector generl or comprble udit function before it is submitted to OMB. Additionlly, we recommend tht the director, in collbortion with the CIO Council, develop nd implement pln to ddress governmentwide impediments to greter gency use of EAs. At minimum, this pln should include the two primry chllenges identified in this report gency executive mngement understnding of EAs nd vilbility of EA humn cpitl expertise. Further, we recommend tht the director report nnully to the Sente Committee on Governmentl Affirs nd the House Committee on Government Reform on the results of its nnul updte of the stte nd progress of federl gencies EA efforts.

To ddress our objectives, we obtined nd reviewed relevnt guidnce on EAs, such s OMB Memorndum 97-16 (now rescinded), entitled Informtion Technology ; OMB Circulr A-130, entitled of Federl Informtion Resources; nd federl CIO Council published guidnce, including the Federl Enterprise Frmework Version 1.1 nd A Prcticl Guide to Federl Enterprise. We lso reserched pst GAO reports nd guidnce on mngement nd use of enterprise rchitectures, nd identified nd reviewed relevnt privte-sector reserch on EA frmeworks nd mngement, s well s federl gencies EA frmeworks, including the Tresury Enterprise Frmework nd the Deprtment of Defense s Commnd, Control, Communictions, Computers, Intelligence, Surveillnce, nd Reconnissnce (C4ISR) Frmework. Next, we used the CIO Council published prcticl guide to develop series of questions to determine the extent to which n gency ws meeting the core elements of the guide, nd to determine gencies experiences in pursuing their respective EA efforts. We then incorported these questions into two dt-collection instruments one for federl deprtments (see ppendix VI) nd one for gencies tht were either components within deprtment or independent gencies (see ppendix VII). We pre-tested our survey instrument t one federl deprtment nd one component gency. Prior to distributing the survey instruments, we identified 116 executive brnch federl gencies to include in our survey popultion. These gencies consisted of ll cbinet-level deprtments nd gencies, mjor component gencies or bureus within deprtments, nd other independent gencies. To identify the 116 gencies, we reviewed federl deprtments orgniztionl chrts nd other informtion, such s component gency fiscl yer 2002 budget requests. We limited the selected gencies to those identified in the United Sttes Government Mnul nd the Budget of the United Sttes Government (Fiscl Yer 2002) s hving budget requests in excess of $100 million. The 116 gencies re identified in ppendix II. For ech gency to be surveyed, we identified the CIO or comprble officil nd notified ech of our work nd distributed the pproprite survey instrument to ech vi e-mil. In ddition, we discussed the purpose Pge 28 GAO-02-6 Enterprise

Appendix I Objectives, Scope, nd Methodology nd content of the survey instrument with gency officils when requested. All 116 gencies responded to our survey. Also, timing of gency responses vried, rnging from June 2001 to October 2001, nd thus the determintions in this report regrding the stte of EA mturity t specific gencies nd groups of gencies re linked to prticulr points in time. Appendix III, ppendix IV, nd ppendix V, which contin the results of our nlysis of ech gency s response to our survey, identify the dte tht ech gency responded. We did not verify the ccurcy of the dt tht the gencies reported or the effectiveness of ny gency s efforts tht stisfied n EA core element. However, we did contct gency officils when necessry to clrify their responses. Next, we developed n EA mngement mturity frmework to use in nlyzing gency responses to our survey instrument. To do so, we ctegorized ech core element of the CIO Council published prcticl guide for EA mngement, which formed much of the content of our survey instrument, into series of five relted nd hierrchicl stges. In developing this hierrchy, we drew upon the core elements implicit dependencies nd sequence of presenttion s presented in the guide. We lso ctegorized these core elements into those ttributes ssocited with effectively dischrging ny mngement function nmely, elements tht demonstrte orgniztionl commitment, such s policies nd pprovls; elements tht provide the cpbility to stisfy the commitment, such s ssignment of orgniztionl roles nd responsibilities; elements tht demonstrte stisfction of the commitment, such s EA plns nd products; nd elements tht verify stisfction of the commitment, such s mesurements. We vlidted our frmework with CIO Council nd GAO officils who were the principl uthors of the CIO Council published prcticl guide on which the frmework is bsed. We then nlyzed gency responses ginst the mturity frmework s core elements to determine whether the element ws stisfied. In conducting this nlysis, we considered ll gency responses relted to given core element of the frmework. For exmple, if n gency reported tht it hd developed n EA, we reviewed responses to other survey questions to determine whether the EA hd included requisite components for complete rchitecture, such s the trget rchitecture nd sequencing plns for trnsitioning to the trget environment. In instnces in which gencies reported tht their EAs did not include mjor components or did not meet the core element s defined in the frmework, we plced the gencies efforts relting to tht core element t the next lowest stge of frmework mturity. Pge 29 GAO-02-6 Enterprise

Appendix I Objectives, Scope, nd Methodology After compiling gency responses nd determining gencies respective mturity stges, we nlyzed responses cross different slices of our gency popultion to determine ptterns nd issues. Finlly, we reviewed OMB efforts to oversee federl gency EA development, including nlyzing relevnt policy guidnce nd interviewing OMB officils bout ongoing nd plnned mngement ctions. We conducted our work t the 116 identified federl gencies hedqurters offices in Wshington, D.C., nd Arlington, Virgini, from My 2001 through December 2001, in ccordnce with generlly ccepted government uditing stndrds.
