This paper presents the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Enterprise Architecture strategy that was developed and unanimously approved by the VA Enterprise Architecture Innovation Team. Established by the Secretary of Veterans Affairs, this team, made up of VA senior management business line and information technology professionals, identified and adopted the Zachman Enterprise Architecture framework to organize VA's Enterprise Architecture, and decided how that architecture will be governed and implemented. The strategy provides for a governance system based on decentralized implementation of information technology and centralized management of Enterprise Architecture in an atmosphere of collaboration, accountability, and oversight.
