  14. General observations • Various stages of development among the countries represented here • Nepal at a very initial stage : EA component kicked-off only last week

  15. EA for Nepal, the approach • IT strategy and EA delivery framework would be based primarily on TOGAF • Well articulated relationship between business, data, application and system architecture • Conceptual design based on SOA • Strategy for ensuring intensive stakeholder participation in the process • Intensive focus on stakeholder buy-in • Initiating public debate around EA • Presence of press and academia during launching • Need to raise the level of awareness on the importance of EA/GIF • Policy posturing • Open standard and open source

  16. Key challenges • Resistance to change (in BPR scenarios) • Political commitment still an issue • Need to work on EA/GIF governance issue from the very beginning • Transition management
