Business analysis and enterprise architecture overlap far more than most organisations recognise — in scope, in skills, and in the work itself. This 2007 presentation by Graham McLeod, delivered to the IIBA Western Cape Chapter, makes the case that business analysts are not just contributors to EA but play a central role in shaping business architecture, defining requirements, and bridging strategy with delivery. It covers business and process architecture, requirements traceability, and the career growth path from business analysis into enterprise architecture.
