## A.  Is this project identified in your agency's enterprise architecture?  If not, why?

- Response is based on the scope and phase of the project:

| Interior wide or      Cross-Bureau | New or Developmental |
| --- | --- |
| Interior wide or      Cross-Bureau | Operational or Near-Operational |
| Bureau Unique | New or Developmental |
| Bureau Unique | Operational or Near-Operational |

- Scope of Initiative

- Life Cycle Phase

_**II. A. 1. Business**_

## Language For New and Developmental Projects:

*This project* is being developed in accordance with the IEA documents, and they or any future revision of them will be included as requirements in any contracts for this project.  Any exceptions are noted in the subsequent questions related to the specific architecture layers.”

- Interior-wide or cross-bureau

- New or Developmental

***If your project is Interior-wide or cross-bureau, ***The IEA applies,    and language similar to the following may be used:

_**Language For New and Developmental Projects:**_

## Language for Operational or Near-Operational Systems:

- This project was initiated and developed prior to development of the architecture.  As such, it is part of Interior’s “As Is” architecture.  It has been compared against the IEA guidance requirements, and meets some of them.  As the project is modified or replaced, each iteration will move toward fuller conformance with the IEA.”

_**Language for Operational or Near-Operational Systems:**_

- Interior-wide or cross-bureau

- Operational or Near Operational

***If your project is Interior-wide or cross-bureau, ***The IEA applies,    and language similar to the following may be used:

## “Interior has developed its high-level Enterprise Architecture, and is currently in the process of mid-level development. The IEA is a federated model, with only a certain percentage of it pertaining to cross cutting initiatives.  Only the Interior Enterprise Architecture Bureau supplemental architecture applies to this project because its requirements are bureau unique.” 

_***If your project or initiative is confined solely to your bureau***__**:**_

- Bureau Unique

- It is a Bureau-Specific Initiative, and the _IEA should be applied to the extent possible_.  In addition, each bureau with such unique business needs is required to develop supplemental architectural requirements and guidance for those specific cases, and the initiative should adhere to those bureau-specific architectural artifacts.

_**Language similar to the following should be used:**_

**< and either >**

## B.  This project was initiated and developed prior to development of either the IEA or the bureau supplemental architecture.   As the bureau architecture supplement is developed, and the project is modified or replaced, each iteration will move toward fuller enterprise architectural conformance to the extent possible.”  (operational systems)

- A.  The project is being developed in conformance with the  <name of bureau> supplemental enterprise architecture, and with the overall IEA to the extent possible”

- Operational or Near Operational

## The Interior Enterprise Architecture is described in the:

*Common Requirements Vision (CRV), *
*Conceptual Architecture Principles (CAP), and the *
*Technical Reference Model (TRM).  *
*located at *_[http://www.doi.gov/OCIO/architecture](http://www.doi.gov/OCIO/architecture)__._
_*You, the project manager, need to review each document, and identify which areas your project relates to, and how it conforms.*_

- B.  Explain how this project conforms to your departmental (entire agency) enterprise architecture
