The State Office of the Chief Information Officer (OCIO) has mandated that all reportable projects be approved in advance by the OCIO through an EA program. In response, CDCR has therefore needed to initiate, instantiate, and mature an EA program.<\/p><p>Business effectiveness and efficiency are required for public and private sector organizations. These organizations have established inertia in how they deliver mission services, making change difficult. In most cases, technology investments grow by solving many small problems, with little potential for efficiency related to business needs. Small business changes occur daily, making strategic direction difficult, as each change is not brought into alignment with the enterprise Vision and Strategy. Pressure for increased streamlining of processes is therefore often out of line with the enterprise direction. Problems continue to outnumber the available resources to resolve them, disrupting plans. Business and technology are not in harmony, so architecture must be the element to pull them together.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-tab-title elementor-tab-mobile-title\" aria-selected=\"false\" data-tab=\"2\" role=\"tab\" tabindex=\"-1\" aria-controls=\"elementor-tab-content-1482\" aria-expanded=\"false\">The Solution<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-content-1482\" class=\"elementor-tab-content elementor-clearfix\" data-tab=\"2\" role=\"tabpanel\" aria-labelledby=\"elementor-tab-title-1482\" tabindex=\"0\" hidden=\"hidden\"><p>Implementing and sustaining an Enterprise Architecture (EA) program brings the right information to leaders and managers to help them make informed decisions for the projects or programs that can effectively achieve the required business results. If seen only as an IT initiative, EA may fall significantly short in understanding how competitive the business needs to be, and this can be a critical point of failure. EA programs also fail as compliance organizations. While EA may be served well through forms of compliance, it is the EA services that will help all parties understand the value and benefit of doing things differently. This is the optimal approach to EA; it is the only way to ensure the appropriate investments are made in the right sequence to bring about optimal results.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-tab-title elementor-tab-mobile-title\" aria-selected=\"false\" data-tab=\"3\" role=\"tab\" tabindex=\"-1\" aria-controls=\"elementor-tab-content-1483\" aria-expanded=\"false\">  The Benefits<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-content-1483\" class=\"elementor-tab-content elementor-clearfix\" data-tab=\"3\" role=\"tabpanel\" aria-labelledby=\"elementor-tab-title-1483\" tabindex=\"0\" hidden=\"hidden\"><p>Enterprise Architecture as a solution contributes to organizational performance effectiveness. Productivity is improved in alignment with business objectives. Sub-optimization within silos is gradually reduced, gaining cross-functional benefits. Business services are no longer held hostage to low-level investment decisions. Resource effectiveness is improved through prioritization, and resource waste is reduced through initiative synergy. Interoperability improvements drive reductions in formerly high support operations cost. Business outcomes begin to lead peer organizations. Results for investment gradually improve the enterprise image and credibility with customers. Enterprise potential is realized more frequently and service-to-cost ratios are lowered. In the final analysis, it is the business customer\u2019s expectations that drive recognition for how architecture has improved business performance.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-eb03382 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"eb03382\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-16dd813\" data-id=\"16dd813\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-60c8713 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"60c8713\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Project Management Consulting Services<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-46b0a26 elementor-tabs-view-horizontal elementor-widget elementor-widget-tabs\" data-id=\"46b0a26\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"tabs.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-tabs\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-tabs-wrapper\" role=\"tablist\" >\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-title-7411\" class=\"elementor-tab-title elementor-tab-desktop-title\" aria-selected=\"true\" data-tab=\"1\" role=\"tab\" tabindex=\"0\" aria-controls=\"elementor-tab-content-7411\" aria-expanded=\"false\"> The Challenge<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-title-7412\" class=\"elementor-tab-title elementor-tab-desktop-title\" aria-selected=\"false\" data-tab=\"2\" role=\"tab\" tabindex=\"-1\" aria-controls=\"elementor-tab-content-7412\" aria-expanded=\"false\">The Solution<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-title-7413\" class=\"elementor-tab-title elementor-tab-desktop-title\" aria-selected=\"false\" data-tab=\"3\" role=\"tab\" tabindex=\"-1\" aria-controls=\"elementor-tab-content-7413\" aria-expanded=\"false\">  The Benefits<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-tabs-content-wrapper\" role=\"tablist\" aria-orientation=\"vertical\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-tab-title elementor-tab-mobile-title\" aria-selected=\"true\" data-tab=\"1\" role=\"tab\" tabindex=\"0\" aria-controls=\"elementor-tab-content-7411\" aria-expanded=\"false\"> The Challenge<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-content-7411\" class=\"elementor-tab-content elementor-clearfix\" data-tab=\"1\" role=\"tabpanel\" aria-labelledby=\"elementor-tab-title-7411\" tabindex=\"0\" hidden=\"false\"><p>The California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation (CDCR), Division of Juvenile Justice (DJJ) operates and manages youth facilities for secure custody of youthful offenders.
