Maturity Model
Initial
EA related processes and EA organisation are not clearly defined
Partial
Part of the architecture management processes, organisations, or tools are used
Defined
Organisation’s architecture descriptions are produced following standardised processes and templates, and activities are organised
Managed
The usage and effectiveness of architecture descriptions and architecture management processes are regularly monitored
Strategic
EA is a tool for organisation’s strategic leadership and planning

Discussion
Conclusion & discussion
- EA maturity in Finnish HE sector is low
- Only half have achieved the Defined level
- Goal is to get all to Defined level in by end of the 2017
- What to do next?
- Focus on domains having lowest maturity
- Provide appropriate training
- Call for European wide EA maturity benchmark
