In this paper, we lay the foundation towards extending Enterprise Architecture Management (EAM) into a support service for enterprise transformation. In a first step, we develop a theoretical framework consisting of three dimensions of transformation projects. From this framework, we deduct eight types of transformation projects. In a second step, we take a practitioner's perspective by conducting a focus group with EAM representatives from twelve companies. In this focus group, we identify three patterns of EAM in the course of enterprise transformation. We finally map these patterns to our theoretically derived classification of transformation projects and discuss, with respect to each project type, where EAM may assist and which requirements it must meet to coordinate enterprise transformation. |
