Anagha Gokhale, Purdue University

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to explore the impact of integrating the use of Zachman Framework of Enterprise Architecture and the Balanced Scorecard (BSC) Framework for an effective business-IT alignment. The study tries to identify certain gaps in the Zachman Framework focusing on the motivational aspects of the framework, which have been discussed in the literature review. The aim is to achieve the integration by mitigating these motivational aspect's weaknesses in the Zachman Framework using the deliverables obtained from the BSC. Thus the author proposes to achieve business-IT alignment through this integration. No research studies in the past have tried to explore the motivational aspect of the Zachman Framework, although there have been similar studies conducted on other aspects of the framework.
