Value of TOGAF Certification

Why should you become TOGAF Certified?

Enterprise Architecture (EA) will have a great  impact on the business to deliver  business value, according to Gartner, Inc.  

Enterprise Architecture Value Needs to Be Measured and Reported. According to OMB, the federal
executive branch  $75 billion was invested on information technology (IT) in fiscal
year 2012.

TOGAF, The Open Group Enterprise Architecture, acts as a blueprint for organizational change defined in models that describe (in both business and technology ) how the
entity operates today and how it intends to operate in the future.

TOGAF  also includes a plan for transitioning to this future state. Effective use of an
TOGAF as an enterprise architecture is a hallmark of successful organizations and can
be important to achieving operations and technology environments that
maximize institutional mission performance and outcomes. 

Realizing cost savings through consolidation and reuse of shared services and elimination of antiquated and redundant mission operations, enhancing information sharing through data
standardization and system integration, and optimizing service delivery through streamlining and normalization of business processes and mission operations.

Gartner Says Enterprise Architecture Must Become Business Outcome-Driven to Deliver Value

“Focusing on a standard EA framework doesn’t work,” said Brian Burke, research vice president at Gartner. “In the past EA practitioners focused on deliverables that were useful to enterprise architects but not valuable to senior management and/or did not respond to a specific business or IT need.“
