Information and documentation — Records management in enterprise architecture
The document creates a common language that embeds records management concerns and requirements into enterprise architecture with the twin goals of building consensus — among records managers, enterprise architects and solution architects, and — across the domains of records management, enterprise architecture and solution architecture. NOTE This common understanding of Records Management enables Enterprise Architects to understand the motivations, concerns and goals of Records Managers, recognize them as influential key business stakeholders during organizational transformation, and use this understanding to influence systems planning and design. As a result, Records Management becomes an organizational capability at governance, strategic and operational levels. This document provides a records management viewpoint, with architecture principles and corresponding architectural views of records. It explains records management for enterprise architects and other related professionals, so that they can achieve the competency needed to support collaborative initiatives. This document provides support to enterprise architects in areas including: — understanding and identifying records management principles, goals and requirements significant for the architectural representation, — facilitating consultations with records managers during the project lifecycle, — identifying opportunities to reuse existing records management analyses and tools. This document provides scenarios and models for solution architects and those who have responsibility for infrastructure overview. This document also provides a common language to records managers for collaboration with enterprise architects to position records management requirements in the architecture development process.

ISO/TR 21965:2019(E)
Introduction
General
A record is information created, received and maintained as evidence and as an asset by an organization
or person, in pursuit of legal obligations or in the transaction of business. Records management is
the field of management responsible for the efficient and systematic control of records, and thus the
primary source for the definition of the main principles and requirements for the records management
capability.
Enterprise architects work with stakeholders, both leaders and subject matter experts, to develop and
maintain a holistic view of the organization's strategy, processes, information assets, and information
technology. The role of the enterprise architect is to take this knowledge and ensure that the business
and IT are in alignment. The enterprise architect links the business mission, strategy and processes of
an organization to its information and technology strategy. Enterprise architects document this using
multiple architectural models or views that show how the current and future needs of an organization
will be met in an efficient, sustainable, agile, and adaptable manner.
The concept of records as information assets is consistent with the definition in ISO 15489-1:2016
of “information created, received and maintained as evidence and as an asset by an organization or
person, in pursuit of legal obligations or in the transaction of business”. Consistent good practice in the
management of the information assets of a business is most important, regardless of the broader or
narrower interpretation of the terms “record” and “records management”, and concepts of “business
record”, “evidence”, “information asset”, “legal obligations”, and “transaction” in an organization or
business.
The purpose of this document is to provide a common reference for records managers (or information
managers in general) and enterprise architects about requirements for records processes and systems.
The goal is to establish the records manager as a key stakeholder in enterprise architecture, which
supports embedding records management:
— into the strategic goals, enabling it as an organizational capability for consideration for governance,
risk and compliance;
— into the enterprise architecture requirements, to influence systems analysis, design, planning, and
change management.
Enterprise architects are highly influential in the creation of organization-wide business requirements
and in solution architectures. Enterprise architects create and maintain enterprise architecture
representations, usually comprised of multiple models or views that show how the current and future
needs of an organization will be met in an efficient, sustainable, agile, and adaptable manner. Records
requirements, principles and models can be stated in ways that can be readily incorporated into these
enterprise architecture representations to embed records processes and systems into normal business
practice and into solutions to be designed. Incorporating recordkeeping requirements into system
analysis and design will help enterprise architects link systems to recordkeeping control tools, and
thus resolve issues such as the efficient and systematic control of the creation, receipt, maintenance,
use and disposition of records. In that sense, this document has the following objectives:
a) Explaining the core concepts and records management principles to enterprise architects;
b) Explaining the core concerns of records management as an enterprise architecture viewpoint;
c) Explaining the alignment of the records management viewpoint and enterprise architecture
methods.
The records management viewpoint expressed here makes use of the concepts of “concerns” and “system
of concerns” defined in ISO/IEC/IEEE 42010, and of the concepts of “stakeholders”, “viewpoint, “view” and
“model” as also defined coherently in that standard and in the main enterprise architecture references
of The Open Group Architecture Framework (TOGAF) and ArchiMate. With reference to ArchiMate,
the main scope of this viewpoint is the motivational aspect and the layers strategy and business, with
© ISO 2019 – All rights reserved v
---------------------- Page: 7 ----------------------
SIST-TP ISO/TR 21965:2019
ISO/TR 21965:2019(E)
minor considerations for the layers of application and implementation. TOGAF is used to inform how this
records management viewpoint relates to the Architecture Development Method (ADM).
NOTE For an explanation of ArchiMate diagram conventions, see Annex A.
Motivation
Since enterprise architecture often drives decisions about investment in information systems, it is
important that records management requirements can be aligned with enterprise architecture. This
ensures that enterprise architects can understand the business value realized through managed
records.
System designers can then consider building in records management capabilities by design. This
requires the expression of records management concerns in a way that is useful for representation in
architecture descriptions.
Motivations for the development of this document include the need to improve the following situations:
— Lack of understanding in many organizations that the information created and received as part of
their business activities are in fact records and therefore should be managed not only as records but
also as enterprise assets,
— Information is of growing importance as an organisational asset on its own right. New sensor
technology, big data phenomena, open data and linked data practices, etc., require efficient control
over derived information and its uses (e.g. machine learning applications, decision aid processes,
etc.), and therefore demand adequate Records Management,
— Lack of managing records not only as records but also as enterprise assets results in records
management often being de-scoped or “deferred” during systems analysis and design, shifting
architectural debt to the end of life of system’s decommissioning (end of life of a system), This
deferment can result in uncertainty and lack of fundamental knowledge in the moment of the
decommissioning, implying high risks for the business and costly corrective efforts,
— Lack of embedding records management capability in the design of systems that create and receive
records, resulting in: unmanageable records; needed authoritative information not available to the
organization; increased risk of exposure of the organization to risks (such as compliance risks) and
a loss of efficiency (such as for discovery tasks),
— Cost of re-engineering an enterprise solution designs due to compliance risks.
Understanding records management concerns within an enterprise architecture context can minimize
some of the following typical challenges:
— Reliance on manual interventions in the management of records, described:
— By Enterprise Architects as “create, describe, store, maintain and dispose of records”,
— By Records Managers as “creation, capture and management of records”.
— Records not created within, or persistently linked to, the business context (see Figure 1),
— Exposure to risks and compliance issues due to:
— Systems not designed to preserve the integrity of records, for example, not preventing
unauthorized changes to content and metadata, or with inadequate activity monitoring,
— Systems not able to destroy records when those records are due for destruction,
— Systems not designed to prevent the destruction of records that are scheduled for retention,
— Systems not recording the disposition of records,

SIST-TP ISO/TR 21965:2019
ISO/TR 21965:2019(E)
— Systems with limitations for decommissioning properly, because it isn’t possible to apply
disposition rules to poorly described content or because the system lacks disposition capabilities,
— Migrations that damage the integrity of records (content, context, rendering), are compromised
through poorly designed migration processes,
— Systems unable to appropriately discover or view or retrieve records,
— Systems unable to prevent inappropriate disclosure of records, nor to publish appropriate as
open data due to inadequate metadata,
— Inability to transfer control of archival records to archival authorities.
— Overhead cost of maintaining unmanaged records indefinitely,
— Loss of reputation and legal risks associated with lack of evidence or lack of integrity of evidence.

ISO/TR 21965:2019(E)
Introduction
General
A record is information created, received and maintained as evidence and as an asset by an organization
or person, in pursuit of legal obligations or in the transaction of business. Records management is
the field of management responsible for the efficient and systematic control of records, and thus the
primary source for the definition of the main principles and requirements for the records management
capability.
Enterprise architects work with stakeholders, both leaders and subject matter experts, to develop and
maintain a holistic view of the organization's strategy, processes, information assets, and information
technology. The role of the enterprise architect is to take this knowledge and ensure that the business
and IT are in alignment. The enterprise architect links the business mission, strategy and processes of
an organization to its information and technology strategy. Enterprise architects document this using
multiple architectural models or views that show how the current and future needs of an organization
will be met in an efficient, sustainable, agile, and adaptable manner.
The concept of records as information assets is consistent with the definition in ISO 15489-1:2016
of “information created, received and maintained as evidence and as an asset by an organization or
person, in pursuit of legal obligations or in the transaction of business”. Consistent good practice in the
management of the information assets of a business is most important, regardless of the broader or
narrower interpretation of the terms “record” and “records management”, and concepts of “business
record”, “evidence”, “information asset”, “legal obligations”, and “transaction” in an organization or
business.
The purpose of this document is to provide a common reference for records managers (or information
managers in general) and enterprise architects about requirements for records processes and systems.
The goal is to establish the records manager as a key stakeholder in enterprise architecture, which
supports embedding records management:
— into the strategic goals, enabling it as an organizational capability for consideration for governance,
risk and compliance;
— into the enterprise architecture requirements, to influence systems analysis, design, planning, and
change management.
Enterprise architects are highly influential in the creation of organization-wide business requirements
and in solution architectures. Enterprise architects create and maintain enterprise architecture
representations, usually comprised of multiple models or views that show how the current and future
needs of an organization will be met in an efficient, sustainable, agile, and adaptable manner. Records
requirements, principles and models can be stated in ways that can be readily incorporated into these
enterprise architecture representations to embed records processes and systems into normal business
practice and into solutions to be designed. Incorporating recordkeeping requirements into system
analysis and design will help enterprise architects link systems to recordkeeping control tools, and
thus resolve issues such as the efficient and systematic control of the creation, receipt, maintenance,
use and disposition of records. In that sense, this document has the following objectives:
a) Explaining the core concepts and records management principles to enterprise architects;
b) Explaining the core concerns of records management as an enterprise architecture viewpoint;
c) Explaining the alignment of the records management viewpoint and enterprise architecture
methods.
The records management viewpoint expressed here makes use of the concepts of “concerns” and “system
of concerns” defined in ISO/IEC/IEEE 42010, and of the concepts of “stakeholders”, “viewpoint, “view” and
“model” as also defined coherently in that standard and in the main enterprise architecture references
of The Open Group Architecture Framework (TOGAF) and ArchiMate. With reference to ArchiMate,
the main scope of this viewpoint is the motivational aspect and the layers strategy and business, with
© ISO 2019 – All rights reserved v
---------------------- Page: 5 ----------------------
ISO/TR 21965:2019(E)
minor considerations for the layers of application and implementation. TOGAF is used to inform how this
records management viewpoint relates to the Architecture Development Method (ADM).
NOTE For an explanation of ArchiMate diagram conventions, see Annex A.
Motivation
Since enterprise architecture often drives decisions about investment in information systems, it is
important that records management requirements can be aligned with enterprise architecture. This
ensures that enterprise architects can understand the business value realized through managed
records.
System designers can then consider building in records management capabilities by design. This
requires the expression of records management concerns in a way that is useful for representation in
architecture descriptions.
Motivations for the development of this document include the need to improve the following situations:
— Lack of understanding in many organizations that the information created and received as part of
their business activities are in fact records and therefore should be managed not only as records but
also as enterprise assets,
— Information is of growing importance as an organisational asset on its own right. New sensor
technology, big data phenomena, open data and linked data practices, etc., require efficient control
over derived information and its uses (e.g. machine learning applications, decision aid processes,
etc.), and therefore demand adequate Records Management,
— Lack of managing records not only as records but also as enterprise assets results in records
management often being de-scoped or “deferred” during systems analysis and design, shifting
architectural debt to the end of life of system’s decommissioning (end of life of a system), This
deferment can result in uncertainty and lack of fundamental knowledge in the moment of the
decommissioning, implying high risks for the business and costly corrective efforts,
— Lack of embedding records management capability in the design of systems that create and receive
records, resulting in: unmanageable records; needed authoritative information not available to the
organization; increased risk of exposure of the organization to risks (such as compliance risks) and
a loss of efficiency (such as for discovery tasks),
— Cost of re-engineering an enterprise solution designs due to compliance risks.
Understanding records management concerns within an enterprise architecture context can minimize
some of the following typical challenges:
— Reliance on manual interventions in the management of records, described:
— By Enterprise Architects as “create, describe, store, maintain and dispose of records”,
— By Records Managers as “creation, capture and management of records”.
— Records not created within, or persistently linked to, the business context (see Figure 1),
— Exposure to risks and compliance issues due to:
— Systems not designed to preserve the integrity of records, for example, not preventing
unauthorized changes to content and metadata, or with inadequate activity monitoring,
— Systems not able to destroy records when those records are due for destruction,
— Systems not designed to prevent the destruction of records that are scheduled for retention,
— Systems not recording the disposition of records,
vi © ISO 2019 – All rights reserved
---------------------- Page: 6 ----------------------
ISO/TR 21965:2019(E)
— Systems with limitations for decommissioning properly, because it isn’t possible to apply
disposition rules to poorly described content or because the system lacks disposition capabilities,
— Migrations that damage the integrity of records (content, context, rendering), are compromised
through poorly designed migration processes,
— Systems unable to appropriately discover or view or retrieve records,
— Systems unable to prevent inappropriate disclosure of records, nor to publish appropriate as
open data due to inadequate metadata,
— Inability to transfer control of archival records to archival authorities.
— Overhead cost of maintaining unmanaged records indefinitely,
— Loss of reputation and legal risks associated with lack of evidence or lack of integrity of evidence.
Structure of this document
This document is organized into four main groupings:
— Clauses 1 to 3 provide the context overview, including Introduction, Scope, Normative references,
and Terms and definitions.

TECHNICAL REPORT ISO/TR 21965:2019(E)
Information and documentation — Records management
in enterprise architecture
1 Scope
The document creates a common language that embeds records management concerns and
requirements into enterprise architecture with the twin goals of building consensus
— among records managers, enterprise architects and solution architects, and
— across the domains of records management, enterprise architecture and solution architecture.
NOTE This common understanding of Records Management enables Enterprise Architects to understand the
motivations, concerns and goals of Records Managers, recognize them as influential key business stakeholders
during organizational transformation, and use this understanding to influence systems planning and design. As a
result, Records Management becomes an organizational capability at governance, strategic and operational levels.
This document provides a records management viewpoint, with architecture principles and
corresponding architectural views of records. It explains records management for enterprise
architects and other related professionals, so that they can achieve the competency needed to support
collaborative initiatives.
This document provides support to enterprise architects in areas including:
— understanding and identifying records management principles, goals and requirements significant
for the architectural representation,
— facilitating consultations with records managers during the project lifecycle,
— identifying opportunities to reuse existing records management analyses and tools.
This document provides scenarios and models for solution architects and those who have responsibility
for infrastructure overview.
This document also provides a common language to records managers for collaboration with enterprise
architects to position records management requirements in the architecture development process.

Introduction
Généralités
Un document d'activité regroupe des informations créées, reçues et préservées comme preuve et
actif par une personne physique ou morale dans l'exercice de ses obligations légales ou la conduite
des opérations liées à son activité. La gestion des documents d'activité est le domaine de la gestion
en charge d'un contrôle efficace et systématique des documents d'activité, et donc la principale source
pour définir les principes fondamentaux et les exigences essentielles relatifs à la capacité de gestion des
documents d'activité.
Les architectes (des systèmes d'information) d'entreprise travaillent avec les parties prenantes,
tant les dirigeants que les experts en la matière, pour élaborer et maintenir une vision globale de la
stratégie, des processus, des actifs informationnels et des technologies de l'information. Le rôle de
l'architecte d'entreprise est de prendre en compte ces connaissances et de s'assurer que l'organisme et
l'informatique sont cohérents. L'architecte d'entreprise établit un lien entre la mission, la stratégie et
les processus opérationnels d'un organisme et sa stratégie en matière d'information et de technologie.
Les architectes d'entreprise illustrent cela à l'aide de multiples modèles architecturaux ou vues
architecturales qui montrent comment les besoins actuels et futurs d'un organisme seront satisfaits
d'une manière efficace, durable, agile et adaptable.
Le concept de «documents d'activité» en tant qu'actifs informationnels est conforme à la définition
donnée dans l'ISO 15489-1:2016: «informations créées, reçues et préservées comme preuve et actif par
une personne physique ou morale dans l'exercice de ses obligations légales ou la conduite des opérations
liées à son activité». Dans la gestion des actifs informationnels d'un organisme, le plus important est
la cohérence des bonnes pratiques, quelle que soit l'interprétation plus ou moins large des termes
«document d'activité» et «gestion des documents d'activité», ainsi que des concepts de «documents
d'activité opérationnels», «preuve», «actif informationnel», «obligations légales»et de «transaction» au
sein de l'organisme ou de l'organisation.
Le présent document a pour but de proposer une référence commune aux responsables de la gestion de
documents d'activité (ou aux responsables de l'information en général) et aux architectes d'entreprise
concernant les exigences relatives aux processus et aux systèmes documentaires. L'objectif est que
le responsable de la gestion des documents d'activité devienne un acteur clé de l'architecture (des
systèmes d'information) d'entreprise, qui accompagne l'intégration de la gestion des documents
d'activité:
— dans les objectifs stratégiques, ce qui en fait une capacité organisationnelle à prendre en compte en
matière de gouvernance, de risque et de conformité;
— dans les exigences de l'architecture d'entreprise, afin d'influencer les systèmes d'analyse, la
conception, la planification et la gestion des changements.
Les architectes d'entreprise ont une grande influence sur la création d'exigences opérationnelles
à l'échelle de l'organisme et sur les architectures de solutions. Les architectes d'entreprise créent et
maintiennent des représentations d'architecture d'entreprise, généralement composées de plusieurs
modèles ou vues qui montrent comment les besoins actuels et futurs d'un organisme seront satisfaits
d'une manière efficace, durable, agile et adaptable. Les exigences, les principes et les modèles en
matière de documents d'activité peuvent être énoncés de manière à pouvoir être facilement intégrés
à ces représentations de l'architecture d'entreprise afin d'intégrer les processus et les systèmes
documentaires aux pratiques opérationnelles normales et aux solutions à concevoir. L'intégration des
exigences en matière de tenue des documents d'activité dans l'analyse et la conception des systèmes
aidera les architectes d'entreprise à relier les systèmes aux outils de contrôle de la tenue des documents
d'activité et à résoudre ainsi des problèmes tels que le contrôle efficace et systématique de la création,
de la réception, de la maintenance, de l'utilisation et du sort final des documents d'activité. En ce sens,
le présent document vise les objectifs suivants:
a) expliquer les concepts de base et les principes de la gestion des documents d'activité aux architectes
d'entreprise;

ISO/TR 21965:2019(F)
b) expliquer les principaux sujets d'intérêt de la gestion des documents d'activité du point de vue de
l'architecture d'entreprise;
c) expliquer le lien entre le point de vue de la gestion des documents d'activité et les méthodes
d'architecture d'entreprise.
Le point de vue de la gestion des documents d'activité exprimé dans le présent document se base sur
les concepts de «sujets d'intérêt» et «systèmes d'intérêt» définis dans l'ISO/IEC/IEEE 42010, ainsi
que sur les concepts de «parties prenantes», «points de vue», «vue» et «modèle» également définis de
manière cohérente dans cette norme et dans les principales références en architecture d'entreprise que
sont TOGAF (The Open Group Architecture Framework) et ArchiMate. En ce qui concerne ArchiMate, le
principal domaine d'application de ce point de vue est l'aspect de motivation et les couches stratégie et
métier, avec des considérations mineures pour les couches application et implémentation. Le TOGAF est
utilisé pour déterminer la façon dont ce point de vue de la gestion des documents d'activité est lié à la
méthode ADM (Architecture Development Method).

Motivation
Étant donné que l'architecture d'entreprise oriente souvent les décisions d'investissement dans
les systèmes d'information, il est important que les exigences en matière de gestion des documents
d'activité puissent être alignées avec l'architecture d'entreprise. Ainsi, les architectes d'entreprise
peuvent comprendre la plus-value opérationnelle réalisée grâce à la gestion des documents d'activité.
Les concepteurs de systèmes peuvent alors envisager d'intégrer des capacités de gestion des documents
d'activité dès la conception. Pour ce faire, il faut exprimer les sujets d'intérêt relatifs à la gestion
des documents d'activité d'une manière qui soit utile pour la représentation dans les descriptions
d'architecture.
Parmi les raisons qui ont motivé l'élaboration du présent document figure la nécessité d'améliorer les
situations suivantes:
— beaucoup d'organismes ne comprennent pas que l'information créée et reçue dans le cadre de leurs
activités opérationnelles constitue en fait des documents d'activité et devrait donc être gérée non
seulement comme des documents d'activité, mais aussi comme des actifs de l'entreprise;
— l'information est de plus en plus importante en tant qu'actif organisationnel à part entière. Les
nouvelles technologies de détection, les phénomènes de big data, et les pratiques relatives aux
données ouvertes et liées, etc., exigent un contrôle efficace de l'information dérivée et de ses
utilisations (par exemple applications d'apprentissage machine, processus d'aide à la décision, etc.)
et nécessitent donc une gestion adéquate des documents d'activité;
— l'absence de gestion des documents d'activité non seulement en tant que documents d'activité,
mais aussi en tant qu'actifs de l'entreprise, fait que la gestion des documents d'activité est souvent
supprimée ou «différée» lors de l'analyse et de la conception des systèmes, ce qui entraîne un
report de la dette architecturale à la fin de la vie utile du système (mise hors service), ce qui peut se
traduire par des incertitudes et un manque de connaissances fondamentales au moment de la mise
hors service, entraînant des risques élevés pour les activités et de coûteux efforts correctifs;
— un manque d'intégration de la capacité de gestion des documents d'activité dans la conception
des systèmes de création et de réception des documents d'activité, ce qui entraîne: des documents
d'activité ingérables; des informations officielles nécessaires auxquelles l'organisme n'a pas accès;
un risque accru d'exposition de l'organisme à des risques (comme les risques de conformité) et une
perte d'efficacité (comme les tâches de découverte);
— le coût de la réingénierie de la conception d'une solution d'entreprise en raison des risques liés à la
conformité.

ISO/TR 21965:2019(F)
Comprendre les sujets d'intérêt relatifs à la gestion des documents d'activité dans le contexte d'une
architecture d'entreprise peut réduire au minimum certains des défis types suivants:
— le recours à des interventions manuelles dans la gestion des documents d'activité, décrit:
— par les architectes d'entreprise comme consistant à «créer, décrire, entreposer, tenir à jour et
décider du sort final des documents d'activité»;
— par les responsables de la gestion de documents d'activité comme consistant à «créer, capturer
et gérer les documents d'activité»;
— les documents d'activité qui ne sont pas créés dans le contexte opérationnel ou qui n'y sont pas liés
en permanence (voir Figure 1);
— l'exposition aux risques et aux problèmes de conformité dus à:
— des systèmes qui ne sont pas conçus pour préserver l'intégrité des documents d'activité, par
exemple, qui n'empêchent pas les modifications non autorisées du contenu et des métadonnées,
ou dont la surveillance des activités est insuffisante;
— des systèmes qui ne sont pas en mesure de détruire les documents d'activité lorsqu'ils
doivent l'être;
— des systèmes qui ne sont pas conçus pour empêcher la destruction des documents d'activité
dont la conservation est prévue;
— des systèmes qui n'enregistrent pas le sort final des documents d'activité;
— des systèmes ayant des capacités limitées pour effectuer une mise hors service correctement,
parce qu'il n'est pas possible d'appliquer des règles de sort final à des contenus mal décrits ou
parce que le système n'est pas doté de capacités de gestion du sort final;
— des migrations qui portent atteinte à l'intégrité des documents d'activité (contenu, contexte,
rendu), qui sont compromises par des processus de migration mal conçus;
— des systèmes qui ne sont pas en mesure de découvrir, de visualiser ou de récupérer les documents
d'activité de façon appropriée;
— des systèmes qui sont incapables d'empêcher la divulgation inappropriée de documents
d'activité, ni de publier des données appropriées sous forme de données ouvertes en raison de
métadonnées inadéquates;
— l'incapacité de transférer le contrôle des documents d'activité à conserver aux autorités
d'archives;
— les frais généraux liés à la tenue de dossiers non gérés pour une période indéterminée;
— la perte de réputation et les risques juridiques associés au manque de preuves ou à l'absence
d'intégrité des preuves.

d'activité dans les architectures (des systémes
d'information) d'entreprise
1 Domaine d'application
Ce document crée un langage commun qui intègre les sujets d'intérêt et les exigences en matière de
gestion des documents d'activité dans l'architecture (des systèmes d'information) d'entreprise avec le
double objectif de faire naître un consensus:
— entre les responsables de la gestion de documents d'activité, les architectes (des systèmes
d'information) d'entreprise et les architectes de solutions; et
— à travers les domaines de la gestion des documents d'activité, de l'architecture d'entreprise et de
l'architecture de solutions.
NOTE Cette compréhension commune de la gestion des documents d'activité permet aux architectes
d'entreprise de comprendre les motivations, les sujets d'intérêt et les objectifs des responsables de la gestion
de documents d'activité, de les reconnaître comme des intervenants opérationnels clés influents pendant
la transformation organisationnelle et d'utiliser cette compréhension pour influencer la planification et la
conception des systèmes. Ainsi la gestion des documents d'activité devient une capacité organisationnelle au
niveau de la gouvernance, de la stratégie et des opérations.
Le présent document présente un point de vue sur la gestion des documents d'activité, avec les principes
d'architecture et les vues architecturales correspondantes des documents d'activité. Il explique la
gestion des documents d'activité pour les architectes d'entreprise et autres professionnels connexes,
afin qu'ils puissent acquérir les compétences nécessaires pour soutenir les initiatives de collaboration.
Le présent document fournit un soutien aux architectes d'entreprise dans les domaines suivants:
— comprendre et déterminer les principes, les objectifs et les exigences en matière de gestion des
documents d'activité qui sont importants pour la représentation architecturale;
— faciliter les consultations avec les responsables de la gestion de documents d'activité pendant le
cycle de vie du projet;
— déterminer les possibilités de réutiliser les analyses et les outils de gestion des documents d'activité
existants.
Le présent document fournit des scénarios et des modèles destinés aux architectes de solutions et à
ceux qui ont la responsabilité de la vue d'ensemble de l'infrastructure.
Le présent document fournit également un langage commun qui permettra aux responsables de la
gestion de documents d'activité de collaborer avec les architectes d'entreprise afin de positionner
les exigences relatives à la gestion des documents d'activité dans le processus de développement de
l'architecture.
