With the accelerating pace of digital transformation in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, strategic planning has become a fundamental element to ensure the success and implementation of digital initiatives. Enterprise architecture plays a pivotal role within the framework of digital transformation governance, as it contributes to providing a clear vision for integrating strategic objectives with the technical and administrative infrastructure, thereby enhancing the efficiency and effectiveness of digital implementation. This standard is a core part of the digital transformation measurement adopted in the Kingdom, which aims to achieve alignment between national goals and global best practices.

What is Enterprise Architecture?

It’s a set of practices and controls concerned with implementing the vision and strategy of the organization by making the necessary changes to align business goals and procedures with the information technology used to achieve this vision. In general, enterprise architecture consists of an integrated system of work components and parts (including the administrative, organizational, procedural, and technical structure) that interact with each ¹ other to achieve unified goals.

Enterprise Architecture as a Strategic Element in Digital Transformation Governance

Enterprise architecture refers to the comprehensive framework that integrates organizational strategies, operational processes, and technical systems within the organization to ensure the efficient achievement of its objectives. Within the standard of digital transformation governance, enterprise architecture achieves several key benefits:

1. Effective Strategic Planning: Contributes to directing digital initiatives towards achieving the Saudi Vision 2030.
2. Enhancing Transparency and Accountability: Through the establishment of clear mechanisms for administrative and technical governance.
3. Achieving Digital Integration: By linking systems and data across different departments to ensure effective cooperation and coordination.
4. Effective Risk Management: Identifying potential challenges and developing proactive solutions to maintain business continuity.
5. Providing a Unified Governance Framework: Ensures that digital transformation is in line with local and international standards.

Requirements for Implementing Enterprise Architecture within the Framework of Digital Transformation Governance

To ensure the achievement of the strategic objectives of enterprise architecture, organizations must meet several requirements, including:

1. Establishing an Enterprise Architecture Unit: A specialized unit should be established within the concerned entity that reports directly to senior management.
2. Adopting a Clear Interaction Model: Defines the relationship between the enterprise architecture unit and other administrative units to ensure integration.
3. Developing a Digital Transformation Roadmap: Building a detailed plan that defines the objectives, gaps, projects, and performance indicators.
4. Applying Best Practices and Methodologies: To ensure the implementation of digital transformation according to global frameworks.
5. Preparing Governance Policies and Procedures: Documenting the rules and procedures governing digital transformation within the organization.
6. Monitoring Performance and Measuring Success: Through dashboards and periodic performance indicators that ensure the achievement of the desired goals.

Implementing Enterprise Architecture Practices

The effective implementation of enterprise architecture requires several key steps, including:

• Analyzing the current situation by documenting the business architecture, applications, data, and technical architecture.
• Identifying the gaps between the current and future state and classifying them into interconnected work groups.
• Developing a digital roadmap that includes clear performance indicators, a precise timeline, and effective monitoring mechanisms.
• Building an enterprise architecture repository to serve as a data center to support decision-making.
• Issuing periodic reports that track the progress in implementing the enterprise architecture.
