FEAF

The Federal Enterprise Architecture Framework (FEAF) organizes government enterprise architecture around collaboration, performance, and shared reference models. It emphasizes segment architecture, standards alignment, and cross-agency reuse through common taxonomies. FEAF integrates with the Federal IT Shared Services Strategy and related OMB guidance.

In Practice

Public-sector clients use FEAF to structure segment plans, data governance, and service catalog alignment with federal reference models. Larkinized LLC helps agencies map FEAF artifacts to TOGAF or DoDAF where hybrid frameworks apply. Strong performance measurement ties architecture investments to mission outcomes.

Example

An agency segment architecture documents how a grants management system aligns to the Federal Enterprise Architecture Data Reference Model.
