Yes - Although I do recommend PEAF there is a lack of recognition of the value of governance and delivery frameworks and even less interest in implementing them in a meaningful way. This does not reflect PEAF but a woeful lack of management competence in the UK. In addition the name recognition of PEAF by business leaders and stakeholders is low. Specifically Like: I find it very valuable to have a reference architecture that I can refer to and can promote to interested stakeholders.
The frameworks are coherent and comprehensive and the collateral that support them clear, concise and well structured.

Yes - Just something else to look at
Solution Architect, KBR, UK,
Mai 2012

Architect, ADG Netcom, Canada,

Consultant, Pioneer Information Services, USA,
Jun 2010
No - It is not a straight "Yes" or "No" question. I would certainly recommend PEAF to an organisation which doesn't have a view of EA or to an organisation which is consistently getting "EA" wrong. But if you are looking to influence an organisation that is already practicing EA then it is difficult because they most likely would have chosen the path of one of the frameworks (E.g TOGAF). Hence it depends on the organisation maturity.

Jun 2010
Yes - Simplicity and speed of use to achieve tangible results.
Chief Enterprise Architect, Olympic Delivery Authority, UK,

Consultant, Meridien Consulting Services, Malaysia,

Mai 2010
Yes - as mentioned previously, PEAF can serve for new EA Adopters who are looking for very simple framework and trying to step far from certain complex solutions. Although EA came to simplify complexity at work, but relatively speaking, when architects grow their architecture then complexity percentage increases.

Yes - good idea
Head EA, Basler Versicherung, Switzerland,
Mai 2010
Yes - Although I have not actively used PEAF because I have been working in public sector environments where larger, more complex EA frameworks are mandated I can see that PEAF would be an extremely useful EA framework for any commericial organisation that is free to choose the EA framework used on the basis of cost effectiveness and speed of implementation.

Mai 2010
No - It is too simplistic to be of any real value. It is useful for consulting firms looking for a "service offering" out of the box or educating those who wish to become EAs. But if you are already a practicing EA then you should already know everything that is in the framework...and much more..
Enterprise Architect, RTA, Australia,
Mai 2010
