In order to achieve this objective, eGA realized the need for a Kingdom-wide strategy and holistic guiding plans, and hence decided to design and develop a National Enterprise Architecture Framework (NEAF). NEAF is an aggregation of models and meta-models, governance, compliance mechanisms, technology standards and guidelines put together to guide effective development and implementation of an Enterprise Architecture by different government entities across Kingdom. This paper will describe NEAF development project success story, its objectives and its importance to Bahrain’s economical vision 2030. It describes the NEAF development lifecycle and highlights at each stage the findings and challenges faced during the project.
