1 Purpose of this Document
This document describes the Tailored Architecture Framework.
TOGAF provides an industry standard framework for architecture that may be used in a wide variety of
organizations. However, before TOGAF can be effectively used within an architecture project, tailoring at
two levels is necessary.
Firstly, it is necessary to tailor the TOGAF model for integration into the enterprise. This tailoring will
include integration with project and process management frameworks, customization of terminology,
development of presentational styles, selection, configuration, and deployment of architecture tools, etc.
The formality and detail of any frameworks adopted should also align with other contextual factors for the
enterprise, such as culture, stakeholders, commercial models for enterprise architecture, and the existing
level of architecture capability.
Once the framework has been tailored to the enterprise, further tailoring is necessary in order to tailor the
framework for the specific architecture project. Tailoring at this level will select appropriate deliverables
and artifacts to meet project and stakeholder needs.
