Designing enterprise architecture: Case study of the ministry of energy and mineral resources

The Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources (MEMR) is a government institution that has the task of conducting affairs in the field of energy and mineral resources to assist the President in running the state government. Eventhough the role of Information Technology (IT) is increasingly important, MEMR still has no guidance in planning and implementing IT solution. Each unit design and implement their own IT solutions without considering integration to other units. As a result, MEMR faces variety of IT implementation. This study aims to map the current condition of MEMR and recommend the architecture design that fit to MEMR. The framework used is The Open Group Architecture Framework (TOGAF). Data were collected through documents of MEMR and also interviews and Focus Group Discussion (FGD) with units in MEMR. The results of the study are the architecture principles of MEMR that include business principles, application principles, data principles and technology principles and also pattern of solutions and roadmaps based on the proposed architecture principles.
