The IT solution proposal examines core business processes and information technology (IT) infrastructure merge into enterprise architecture (EA). The proposal is based upon an analysis of business goals and determining how to integrate IT goals with the business mission. One of the key parts of the proposal is to convince key stakeholders that the IT solution fits their needs.
