High Level Architecture Principles

These enable successful implementations:

1. Prepare Specifications, including specific features, and how those can grow over the future.
2. Develop standards and guidelines for various aspects of architecture and development.
3. Build a metrics tool, so you can capture and demonstrate the value addition of architecture.
(eg. number of emails received, number of user queries).
4. Define CLEAR goals and responsibilities.
5. Define GOVERNANCE of processes, so everything is working smoothly.
6. Build Speadsheet templates that make your work reusable.
