PEAF Simplifies the Rocket Surgery of Enterprise Architecture
Call it pragmatic, call it streamlined, but don't call the Pragmatic Enterprise Architecture Framework (PEAF) TOGAF lite.

Like Web 2.0, the innovation involved in Enterprise Architecture (EA) is more about improving how we use what we already have than inventing something entirely new. While some very specific aspects of those improvements require highly specialized knowledge, most of them are common sense after all the mystery is stripped away. The trick to keeping something as potentially complex as Enterprise Architecture from becoming "rocket surgery" is to drop the confusing parts and explain the concept plainly so people can recognize the benefit. Because there are many different types of organizations with a variety of roles, the more tools we have to communicate the value and core processes of Enterprise Architecture the better. The Pragmatic Enterprise Architecture Framework (PEAF) is one useful tool that can enable you to do just that.
