AP has a variety of different systems that are interconnected. The complexity comes not just with the different types of systems but the different operating models and environmental challenges of offline systems (due to intermitted/ poor connectivity from the parks).
This results in a hybrid-hosted model of systems, security and accessibility. Furthermore, the master-data management for the system of systems becoming challenging due to the input source of information based on offline sources of data.
The EA combines many different skills and experiences to address and solve business, information, and technology-related opportunities and problems. In many activities, the Enterprise Architect is the “glue” that integrates complex business systems together ensures security and accessibility is maintained and ensures the platforms are scalable.
This function provides the “glue” between the technical resources (Tech and vendors) and the business system owners.
The EA usually does not specialize in a particular system functionality but rather looks at how systems will behave together in an interconnected universe of the organizational LAN, WAN, hosted environments.

The technical documentation and EA illustrations allow for logical, physical, virtual and technical diagrams to show how systems will be accommodated for, how information moves between them and how technical hosting of these systems accommodate the operation.

• Definition, implementation, and execution of the processes for the definition, maintenance, and conformance management of AP’s systems architecture.
• Ensure all systems and business system owners understand the operating model of the systems and their touch-points between each other.
• Define the system of systems enterprise architecture diagrams that illustrate the integrations, virtual, physical and logical views of the platforms.
• Consult system vendors ensure contractual obligations define constraints and API, integration management.
• Ensure business representatives have data custodians for the management and reconciliation of data between core systems (such as finance and payroll), to ensure data integrity is audited and validated each financial cycle.
• Error management controls and procedures are in place and both technical teams and vendors understand their role in maintaining production systems.

Disaster recovery procedures and business continuity is in place and tested where systems are reliant on underlying hosting within AP.

• Engages business, system vendors, technology teams and defines the architecture models that illustrate the integrations, the security, network and hosting requirements.
• Security constraints, data segregation, data flows and data management for store-and-forward queues for offline management of systems.
• Design network device management and monitoring and systems accessibility management.
• The consultant in business process analysis and design, and service delivery, particularly with respect to the use of master data management to align business rules.

Consults business systems owners to advise of constraints or rules that are dependent on physical system interoperability to ensure procures and rules are in place to govern data integrity
