A new content framework and metamodel for Enterprise Architecture and IS Strategic Planning
IS Strategic Planning and Enterprise Architecture are two
major disciplines in IT Architecture and Governance. They pursue
the same objectives and have much in common. While ISSP has
benefited from business strategic planning methods and techniques, it
has not evolved much since the 90s and lacks from formal, tooled and
standard methodology. In the other hand, Enterprise Architecture has
known a very fast progression in the last years helped in that by
market’s needs and research in the domain of Entreprise Modeling.

aim of this paper is to present a new EA content framework and
metamodel taking into consideration ISSP concerns and bridges the
gap between these two fields.
