The Federal Enterprise Architecture is a business-focused framework for cross-agency, Government-wide improvement
The FEA is being constructed through a collection of inter-related “reference models” designed to facilitate cross-agency collaboration, and horizontal / vertical information sharing
Slide 10
The FEA Business Reference Model (BRM) is a function-driven framework for describing the Lines of Business performed by the Federal Government independent of the Agencies that perform them
The Draft FEA Service Component Reference Model (SRM) – to be released for agency review shortly - consists of seven Service Layers with supporting Categories and Component Areas.
The SRM is supported by multiple Access and Delivery Channels that provide a foundation for accessing and leveraging capabilities
The Draft FEA Technical Reference Model (TRM) will provide an effective means by which Service Components can be leveraged, built, and deployed across the Federal Government…
… as well as provide guidance and technology recommendations supporting the development and implementation of Service Components that embrace a Component-Based Architecture
The draft FEA Data Reference Model (DRM) is envisioned to support the classification of data across horizontal and vertical business areas / functions
