Integrated Architecture Framework (IAF) is an enterprise architecture framework that covers business, information and technology.[1]

This framework has been developed by Capgemini since 1993, from the experience of practicing architects on projects for clients across the group. The Integrated Architecture Framework is:

  • A comprehensive framework to deliver market-leading solutions
  • Adaptable to the specific needs of an organization
  • Scalable from individual projects to enterprise-wide transformation
  • A recognized architecture method in The Open Group’s IT Architecture Certification program (ITAC).[2])

Integrated Architecture Framework has evolved based on the real-world experience, and continues to provide strong focus on the need to understand the business needs and drivers, and for all aspects of the architecture and all architectural decisions to be traceable back to these business priorities.
