Enterprise Architecture Award
Forrester is pleased to announce that this year’s EA Awards are co-judged by The Open Group, author of the TOGAF® Standard, which was developed by The Open Group Architecture Forum.
In selecting the winners of the 2023 Enterprise Architecture Award, the judges from Forrester and The Open Group are looking for stories of enterprise architecture (EA) excellence resulting in tangible business and customer results.

The Enterprise Architecture Award winner will demonstrate:
- An EA roadmap that contributes to the future fitness of the technology organization and the entire business.
- EA practices that drive change, growth, and differentiation through timely yet strategic decisions.
- An EA organization that embodies six principles: accountable, agile, continuous, influential, pragmatic, and valuable.
