The Journey So Far
> In the beginning… Perceptions of ITSD
• No IT strategy; no understanding of IT “health”; no alignment with budget model; no strategic input; no business consultation; etc.
Confidence in ITSD• Inability to manage or maintain IT current environment; inability
to deliver reliable services; inability to justify technical decisions; etc.
Expectations of ITSD• Forget “the future” (for now) – improve “the current”
> …the 2006 Review of ITSD

The Journey So Far…cont’d
> The Birth of EA @ Deakin ITSD – The logical way to address the Review recommendations Snr Exec – The answer to their (our) problems
> What we did… What is EA? What were Deakin’s expectations of EA? How these expectations should be satisfied? How EA will “fit” at Deakin?
> The Deakin Enterprise Architecture Plan (DEAP) was born…

The Way Forward> Make a start – at this stage it’s just theory> Implementation
Rework and implement what we already have first Take an iterative approach – with frequent deliverables “Project” approach to each iteration – using seconded resources
> Marketing Selling the concept of EA to IT staff – and managing resistance Selling the benefits of EA to Senior Executive and Business Units
> Education What is EA? - What is EA at Deakin? – Why EA? Focus training/education to suit specific stakeholder groups
> Commitment and Support Appears to be strong executive support – we will test this Acceptance that it won’t happen overnight, but it will happen…

Challenges, Opportunities…
> Challenges Establishing a common understanding of EA @ Deakin Stakeholder support for EA @ Deakin - and what it delivers Embedding EA into the whole University – not just ITSD Ensuring EA benefits justify the existence of the EA team
> Opportunities (outside of those ‘direct’ EA benefits) ITSD gains credibility as a disciplined and valued part of the
University
