ABSTRACT
The paper provides the rationale and concept for integration of models and modeling objects of Enterprise Architecture and IT Strategies. The cohesion between and within Business and IT is achieved by means of services. Among other applications this concept justifies inclusion of Enterprise Architecture as perspective in Balanced Scorecards used for IT Strategy management and measurement. Then the relations between BSC objects and EA objects can be maintained in a single modeling repository thus providing an integrated environment for methods, processes, models and variants of objects and enabling holistic strategy, project and architecture management.
