Every project has a plan and a design. Either implicit or yet better: explicit. In that plan and design the concepts, elements, and components are mentioned that together form the solution that the project realizes. It is these concepts, elements, and components you want to draw on a piece of (digital) paper and know their interrelationships and dependencies.
Next, you can define indicators that color, show, or hide a concept, element, or component based on input data. For instance, if on a certain date, certain processes still have not been designed (according to the plan), the indicators will color them automatically red on the blueprint, if you want.
Also you can define action paths. This means that if you click on a visual item on the poster, other items respond to that click: show the indicator (color, etc..), highlight or even play a sound, or show a popup with a YouTube video in it.
In this way, you can have a daily, weekly, or monthly status/progress report of your project and take the right measures based on what you see.
As enterprise architecture has its biggest added value in ensuring projects are successful, it is also very important to exactly know what a project is and what it takes to run a successful project.
The IT project auditing checklist on our Project Management software page is the only thing you need to make sure every project is a success.

This maybe the first time you see an Enterprise Architecture. What you see here is a total concept of concepts that are carefully picked based on a strategy. Every concept here is designed globally (as a principle diagram) and in detail.
Projects use the global and detailed designs (or projections) of the concepts to design and realize their solutions.
