(1) Purpose and intent. The purpose of this Enterprise Architecture rule is for the Florida Digital Service (“”FL[DS]””) to establish a statewide Enterprise Architecture. The intent of this Enterprise Architecture rule is to provide a comprehensive operational framework, including Standards and deliverables, that contemplates the needs and assets of the Enterprise to support Digital Interoperability.
(2) “”State of Florida Enterprise Architecture: Transforming the Way Florida Purchases and Manages State Technology Resources”” (“”EA Document””), effective 04/23, is hereby adopted and incorporated by reference and available at https://www.flrules.org/Gateway/reference.asp?No=Ref-15226. The EA Document establishes the Enterprise Architecture, which includes Standards and deliverables.
(3) Form FL[DS]-01, Technology Initiative Management Form (“”FL[DS]-01″”), effective 04/23, is hereby adopted and incorporated by reference and available at http://www.flrules.org/Gateway/reference.asp?No=Ref-15227. When submission of the FL[DS]-01 is required pursuant to this rule, FL[DS] may accept submission of an alternative format provided it is equivalent to the FL[DS]-01. The equivalent form must include the deliverables identified in the FL[DS]-01, as verified by FL[DS]. If FL[DS] determines that the alternative format is not an equivalent to the FL[DS]-01, the Enterprise Agency must update and resubmit the equivalent form to FL[DS] within thirty (30) calendar days of being notified by FL[DS].
(4) Definitions. Capitalized terms used herein are defined in section 1 of the EA Document.
(5) Thresholds. For procurement or acquisition of Technology Asset(s) exceeding $195,000, Enterprise Agencies must complete and submit the FL[DS]-01, or an equivalent, in accordance with subsections (6) and (7) of this rule.
(6) Implementation. FL[DS] recognizes three categories of Technology Asset(s). They are Technology Asset(s) Planned, Technology Asset(s) in Development, and Technology Asset(s) in Operation.
(a) Technology Asset(s) Planned. A Technology Asset for which the intent to acquire has occurred but overt acts to initiate acquisition have not begun. This requirement applies regardless of the procurement method utilized. For all Technology Asset(s) Planned, the Enterprise Agency shall comply with the Standards and deliverables identified in the EA Document and FL[DS]-01, or equivalent. To document alignment with the EA Document and Standards and Deliverables, the Enterprise Agency must submit the FL[DS]-01, or an equivalent, in accordance with subsection (7) of this rule and must maintain supporting documentation in accordance with subsection (9) of this rule.
(b) Technology Asset(s) in Development. A Technology Asset for which the purchase is complete, work has begun, but Implementation has not yet occurred. For Technology Asset(s) in Development as of the effective date of this rule, the Enterprise Agency should find the Enterprise Architecture instructive wherever reasonably possible.
(c) Technology Asset(s) in Operation. A Technology Asset which has been made operational to Stakeholders or has been implemented. For Technology Asset(s) in Operation as of the effective date of this rule, the Enterprise Agency may find this rule instructive.
(7) Completion and Submission of the FL[DS]-01 or an Equivalent. For all new Technology Assets as of the effective date of this rule, Enterprise Agencies must complete and submit the FL[DS]-01, or an equivalent, to FL[DS] in accordance with subsections (5) through (7) of this rule.
(a) Prior to initiating acquisition of a Technology Asset, Enterprise Agencies must complete and submit the Strategy, Business, and Systems Domains sections of the FL[DS]-01, or an equivalent, to FL[DS].
