These assessments are extensive; measuring "as is" and "to be" maturity levels in the categories of "7 Standards and Conditions" (Modularity, MITA, Industry Standards, Leverage, Business Results, Reporting, Interoperability), business architecture, information architecture, and technical architecture. In total there are nearly 1,000 checklist items to assess across various business and technical areas, involving many subject matter experts (SME).
