13.02.08 - Avolution supports FEA RM
Avolution, the market leader in metrics-based analysis of architectures, today announced the release of a US Federal Enterprise Architecture (FEA) Reference Model (RM) library for its ABACUS enterprise modelling solution.Licensed ABACUS users can download it for free from the Avolution Community.
The FEA RM is being developed by the US Office of Management and Budget (OMB) to "transform the Federal Government to one that is citizen-centric, results-oriented and market-based" [OMB].
Dr Tim O’Neill (founder and Executive Director) said: “The FEA Reference Model hopes to standardise the way that US government departments approach enterprise architecture. With the ABACUS - FEA RM library, this means that organisations who want to map their Enterprise or Solution Architectures to the FEA RM can utilise ABACUS, as well as Avolution's training, professional services and partners, to do so. Furthermore, future updates to the FEA RM can be imported into ABACUS with a few simple 'right-clicks' from the public XML documents, due to ABACUS' unparalleled importing capabilities and meta-modelling flexibility."

About Avolution
Avolution provides the ABACUS® solution which is unique to the enterprise
modelling space in that it can create multiple solution alternatives (architectures) and then run various simulations (Discrete Event, Monte Carlo etc) against each alternative for metrics such as Performance, Cost and Agility. In so doing it can recommend the optimal path for investment, with predictive and quantitative certainty. More information is available at www.avolution.eu.
- Build any number of solution alternatives and views all according to a completely flexible meta-model.
- Analyse your architecture(s) for metrics such as; Total Cost of Ownership (TCO), Performance, Availability, Agility and many more.
- View the architecture(s) and the results of any evaluation using advanced techniques such as; 3D, heat maps, capability spaces and trade-off diagrams.
