• Stakeholders have no understanding of enterprise architecture, and therefore will not support it. This happens when the stakeholders don’t participate in the enterprise architecture program. Another reason can be that the enterprise architecture artifacts are not used in projects, and as a result management questions its value. A solution is to educate and communicate the value of enterprise architecture to all stakeholders prior to the start of an enterprise architecture program. (Richard, 2013)
• The “ivory tower” enterprise architect approach. With this approach you run a high risk that most stakeholders will not buy in. The primary job of an enterprise architect is to lead the EA process rather than to impose the content on the organization.

Because the company has one large data center that each office connects to via a wide area network (WAN), hence the appropriate architecture for this solution would have to consist of a WAN diagram to be used in management of this project, along with system documentation, and information technology architecture documents to provide a visual representation of the network. A wide area networks (WANs) usually covers a large, physical area. And many WANs
Economic factors – which include interest rates, economic growth, exchange rates, inflation and taxation changes (Nieman, G; 1998).

First step in intervention is to identify meaningful situations or contexts to promote communication and social interaction with Aiden. Situations that are motivating for Aiden, provide chance for communication and that are appropriate for his development. Aiden is most likely to talk, interact, and learn if he is doing something he enjoys. Aiden will benefit most if the settings selected are a good fit for his interests, needs, and skills. As he becomes comfortable with this approach: Gradually we’ll add more and more contexts as opportunities for communication.

Issues such as becoming too data driven, relaxed in business, CEO drives the process, poor materials, performance consequences, issues in related systems, and

The design portion of the BPI for Eagle Ottawa must be initiated by mapping out processes which can help to identify stakeholders and prioritize customer needs (de Mast & Lokkerbol, 2012). Ultimately at the conclusion of the design stage, there should be a project scope, a cross functional team assignment and team charter and a business case that justifies, from a financial perspective any expenditure (de Mast & Lokkerbol, 2012). The team charter lists the applicable roles and responsibilities by individual and there should be a prevalent focus on oversight and governance.
