Agenda
I am in computer science since 1989,
• as an analyst, solution architect, business consultant
and enterprise architect (since 2007)
The aim of my work is :
• Verify the utilization rate of EA in Czech PA organizations
• Identify reasons of still little acceptance of the EA in PA
organizations, to analyse and objectify them.
• Propose changes in TOGAF to solve identified contradictions
• Propose accelerators e.g. for the application architecture.
• Propose the structure of EA environment and EA roadmap for
Czech Public Administration.
October 2014The Concept of Czech Public Administration Enterprise Architecture, Pavel Hrabě3
Motivation
The status of ICT in Czech PA
The law 365/2000 Coll. on information systems of public
administration
• Strategic IT, Accreditation & Attestation, methodology, guidelines
• Registration of applications (IS o ISVS) and data elements (ISDP)
The law 111/2009 Coll. The Act on Basic Registers
• Register of Citizens, Register of Organizations, Register of Land
parcels and Addresses, Register of Rights & Liabilities
Other eGovernment achievements:
• Gov. portal, Data Boxes, Service places – Czech POINTs,
Communication infrastructure
But not architecture based governance processes at all.
• Big space for improvement of IT governance processes via
architecture
October 2014The Concept of Czech Public Administration Enterprise Architecture, Pavel Hrabě4
Why Czech Government needs Government Enterprise
Architecture? Because:
• Czech Government wants to transform Public
Administration and its IT
• Other Governments successfully did it already
• Biggest corporations also did it already
• EA helped most of states and corporations to be
leaders and we wish to be at least successful follower.
It is not a question „If“, just „When“, „Who“, „How“ or
„Which way“ and this is subject of our investigation.

Summary
Czech Public Administration EA
usage status and requirements
Case study report
October 2014The Concept of Czech Public Administration Enterprise Architecture, Pavel Hrabě6
Selected 14 agencies from four different levels of PA:• 3 central ministries
• 4 counties
• 4 big municipalities - statutory cities
• 3 small cities
Five areas of research:• If, what and why want agencies further explore, understand and
improve?
• If and what architectures are already maintained?
• GEA in context of other disciplines, legislation and structure of PA?
• Readiness and resources for GEA?
• Readiness for knowledge sharing?
Typically half a day interview with one or two managers.

Absence of architecture in Czech PA
The need to better support of cognition, understanding
and change management (9/14).
Target domains of exploration and improvement:
• Business (12)
• Performance (9)
• Data (5) and Application (5)
• Technology (2)
Architecture before Legislation (13/14)

Whole report in Czech at ČSSI
• Interest to build architecture based on Best Practice and share own results
in Czech GEA community network (12/14).
• Expected (8/14) leading role of Ministry of Interior, not fulfilled in past.
• „Portal of Servants“, internal portal of PA ČR, named as best access point
to the Czech GEA BoK.
• Behind the portal should be operated central modelling environment &
repository, complemented with social network functions.
• Public authorities want to get knowledge mostly about (from 14):
• Federative architecture content, across layers and domains (11)
• Examples and experience (11)
• Business Cases, projects (9)
• Peer-reviewed scientific articles (7)
• Others (including foreign examples) (3)
October 2014The Concept of Czech Public Administration Enterprise Architecture, Pavel Hrabě11
Willingness to be governed and to share
• Full localization to Czech language and context
• User friendliness, uniform graphical visualization,
navigation
• Simplicity, clarity, brevity, intelligibility, common sense
• Practical managerial outputs, real examples, directly
applicable patterns and guidelines
• Leadership of authority, timeliness of reference content,
environment (IT system) for knowledge sharing – GEA

October 2014The Concept of Czech Public Administration Enterprise Architecture, Pavel Hrabě13
Holistic broad understanding versus deep exploration into
detail.
• Layered model of architectures by granularity (level of detail).
GEA versus other disciplines BPM, QM - CAF, PM, ...
• Also solved by proper layered model
• GEA cover question of concept existence
• Other disciplines focused on detail
Comprehensiveness versus feasibility (costs, resources,
time) of architecture maintenance
• Accelerators (localised guidelines, templates, reference
models and practical examples.
October 2014The Concept of Czech Public Administration Enterprise Architecture, Pavel Hrabě14
Identified GEA contradictions
„Holistic x detailed“ is solvable by layered architecture:
„Comprehensiveness x feasibility“ is solvable by accelerators like reference
models:

Reduction of Framework description and full translation of it• Localised subset of standard Framework (like other countries)
Selection from meta-model and structure towards simplicity:• Extension of meta-model by „Agenda“, „Law“, „Policy“ etc.
• Reduction of mandatory concepts in meta-model, see below
• Reduction of mandatory (recommended) artefacts
• Reduction of concept description detail to simply existential attributes
Addition of accelerators towards feasibility:• Localised reference models of:
Capabilities/processes/business services
Application components and services
Technology components and services
• Localised templates of artefacts (ready to use)
• Life examples from peer network
• Detailed practical Guidelines
October 2014The Concept of Czech Public Administration Enterprise Architecture, Pavel Hrabě18
Adoption of TOGAF / ArchiMate for Czech GEA(in general and for usage as EwITA for ICT reform)
Extension of meta-model towards comprehensiveness:
• new concepts especially in area of resources
E.g. for People, Knowledge, Asset & Liabilities, Security,
• Addition of whole new domains
Performance
Security
People
Assets
Production Technology
Facility
• Addition of new artefacts
• Extension of Preliminary phase by Enterprise Ontology and derived Thesauri
• Extension of ADM by phases for new domains

• Activities to run in parallel:
• Empowerment of architecture capabilities of MoI
• Modelling of core architect. artefact for capturing key eGovernment
achievements (BR, DB, CzP, KIVS, Portal, JIP, …)
• Proposals of reference models for public authorities
• Development of Czech GEA Framework based on standards and
knowledge transfer
• Update of methodology for public authorities to update their ICT
roadmaps (law 365/2000 Coll.)
• Development of „Whole-of-GEA“ roll-out roadmap
• Quick wins:
• Check of new invested (tendered) projects against eGov architecture
to keep mandatory concepts
• Step-wise reduction of multiplicity of applications
October 2014The Concept of Czech Public Administration Enterprise Architecture, Pavel Hrabě32
Expected next steps
• Czech GEA is one of the missing prerequisites for better ICT management and successful transformation of PA.
• It is recommended to extend the existing technological architecture by coherent architecture of activities of the state (business architecture), information systems, possibly performance architecture of the state.
• It is recommended to use all the ways of cooperation (inter-governmental, academic, non-profit and business) to ensure the transfer of proven experience in the development and use of GEA.
• Building of whole operational environment of Czech National EA, including all adaptation and localization, legislation, institutions, resources and knowledge transfer will be a long-term program which needs smart and feasible implementation roadmap to achieve both, quick and final benefits.
• TOGAF and ArchiMate standards are great foundation for own Czech GEA and can be later extended.
• For Public Administration is definitely needed to simplify TOGAF and to equip it with localised Best Practice content like Application Architecture Reference Model.
