Enterprise Architecture Conference & Expo

Architecting Solutions for Smarter and Leaner Government

How are changing technological capabilities and economic pressures forcing change within the public sector?

A new movement for Smart Lean Government is gaining traction.  The goal of the movement is to provide increased public access to government by aligning technology to shared processes, services and data and reducing duplication.

The Enterprise Architecture (EA) discipline can be the key to achieve Smarter, Leaner Government.  The EA discipline is about understanding the business, the mission and how to maintain, improve, fix or transform it, often involving IT as a transformational mechanism. EA "unclouds" the issues and makes any federal IT system hum in consonance with business: it helps an agency understand inter-relationships between investments, minimize duplication, improve interoperability and compatibility between systems, and is essential to any agency's modernization and streamlined processes.  As a result, Enterprise Architecting has become one of the pillars of the federal IT world to identify critical issues and help make operations run smoothly, seamlessly and maneuver easily.

On May 10th a leading group of public sector EA professionals will explore “Smarter Leaner Government” and the vital role Enterprise Architects will play moving forward.  This conference is free for government professionals to attend.
