PRE-CONFERENCE FOCUS DAY PRE-CONFERENCE FOCUS DAY Monday, March 15, 2010 Putting Architectures to Work A series of in-depth and interactive master-classes will examine ways to simplify architectures and make them clearer, so decisions can be made. The sessions will address the crucial issue of how to make architectures work for the practitioner. 7:15 AM - 8:00 AM Registration and Coffee 8:00 AM - 10:00 AM Practical Case Study and Lessons Learned Air Force Business Transformation Case Study This presentation will examine an approach to Air Force Business Steve Ring, Principal Information Engineer, Group Leader, E142 Transformation that leverages elements from process improvement Warfighter Analysis and Architecture, MITRE Corporation technologies (6-sigma, Lean, Hammer, and Rational) combined with elements from EA frameworks (e.g. TOGAF, DoDAF, Zachman) to A.K Khandker, MITRE, Associate Engineer structure a well-governed blended methodology. We piloted this Mike Lower, MITRE, Associate Engineer blended methodology on various Air Force enterprise-wide problems and will discuss our case studies to inform lessons learned and preferred recommendations and approaches. 10:00 AM - 12:00 PM Implications of the FSAM for the DoD FSAM Overview This workshop will discuss the Federal Segment Architecture How you will benefit: Methodology and the implications for the DoD. • Ensure agency segment architectures are generating results • Identify opportunities for reuse and cross-agency collaboration What will be covered: • Provide a format for architects to engage with business owners • OMB’s EA Segment Reporting Requirements (EASR): Overview • Provide updated, standardized segment information to OMB • Federal Architecture Segment Methodology (FSAM): Overview • OMB Segment Definitions Dr. W.
