The document discusses John Zachman's Enterprise Information Architecture (EIA) framework. The framework is modeled after the planning process used to design buildings, with different perspectives (scope, business model, system model, etc.) representing different stages of planning and implementation. It structures EIA around 6 perspectives and 6 aspects, forming a matrix with cells describing elements of the enterprise from different viewpoints. The framework helps ensure all relevant considerations are addressed from the business goals to the technical implementation.

7. Complex Project Management in Architecture (the kind with buildings) Bubble Chart sketch for the owner to convince them that the architect understands their vision Architect’s Drawings detailed visuals to convince owner to pay to build (including floor plan, elevation, cut-away...) Architect’s Plans detailed technical plans for builders to negotiate the cost of construction Builder’s Plans detailed technical plans to govern and plan construction (such as sequencing, logistics...) Shop Plans detailed technical specs for making components out of context (such as machine tool specs) Physical Building the physical product in the real world
