Introduction
To evaluate business architecture data effectively, business users follow a structured rating process for each Business Architecture domain within their document. The process involves assessing three key aspects: relevance, quality, and quantity.
How it works
Relevance: Users determine how closely the domain data aligns with the Organization's strategic goals. Ratings range from "Very High" (direct alignment) to "Very Low" (minimal support), with an option for "Incomplete" if no relevant data exists.
Quality: This assesses the documentation's adherence to industry standards, specifically ISO 9001 for documents. Ratings span from "Very High" (meets/exceeds Level 5 standards) to "Very Low" (meets Level 1 standards), with "Incomplete" indicating non-compliance with any standard.

Quantity: Users evaluate the comprehensiveness of the documentation against ISO 9001 for documents requirements. The scale goes from "Very High" (surpassing Level 5 requirements) to "Very Low" (meeting Level 1 requirements), with "Incomplete" for insufficient documentation.
By systematically rating each domain, users ensure a thorough and objective evaluation of how well their business architecture data supports strategic goals and meets documentation standards. This structured approach helps in identifying strengths and areas for improvement, ultimately aiding in more informed decision-making.
