Federal Enterprise Architecture

Do you know what a 'blueprint' is? It's a plan that helps people know how to build a house or a building.

Similarly, the Federal Enterprise Architecture is like a blueprint that helps the government plan and build their technology systems. It's a way for the government to make sure all the technology systems and processes work together smoothly and efficiently.

Think of it like a puzzle, with many pieces that need to fit together to create the whole picture. The Federal Enterprise Architecture ensures that all the different pieces of technology used by the government can work together and communicate with each other without any problems.

So, just like how adults make plans to build a house or a building, the government has a plan to build their technology systems called the Federal Enterprise Architecture. It's an important way to make sure that everyone who needs to use technology in the government can do their job easily and without problems.
