Abstract

The aim of this paper is a comparative analysis of frameworks for designing corporate applications. For analytic reasons the application for document circulation within a law firm was designed. The presented comparative analysis includes TOGAF framework as well as Zachman framework. The analysis was conducted on group of experts based on evaluation criteria divided on several groups. Five groups of criteria were defined: implementation, testing, time-consuming, documentation and schedule planning. As the research shows, Zachman framework presents a versatile approach towards designing corporate architecture, because it presents not only the client’s vision but also the visions of a designer and a programmer, whereas TOGAF framework focuses mainly on business approach regarding aims and strategy of an enterprise. The aforementioned research was carried out on a group on a two domain experts.
