Implementation Governance Model

Purpose

Once an architecture has been defined, it is necessary to plan how the Transition Architecture that implements the architecture will be governed through implementation. Within organisations that have established architecture functions, there is likely to be a governance framework already in place, but specific processes, organisations, roles, responsibilities, and measures may need to be defined on a project-by-project basis.
The Implementation Governance Model ensures that a project transitioning into implementation also smoothly transitions into appropriate Architecture Governance.

Content

Typical contents of an Implementation Governance Model are:

• Governance processes
• Governance organization structure
• Governance roles and responsibilities
