The document outlines the steps and phases in an architecture development cycle. It includes 5 phases (A-E) with multiple steps in each phase. Phase A establishes the architecture project scope and vision. Phase B develops the baseline and target business architectures. Phase C focuses on the data architecture, phase D on the application architecture, and phase E identifies solutions and develops implementation plans. The key deliverables include architecture definition documents, roadmaps, requirements, and updated architecture artifacts.

6. L High Rating Rationale
"It's about project establisment and
initiates an iteration of the architecture
development cycle, setting the scope,
constraints, and expectations for the
iteration. It is required in ordder to validate
the business context and to create the
approved Statement of Architecture Work."
These are the stakeholders who fund the
concept.
