This will enable you to clearly communicate the to-be state of the IT solution to implementors and vendors.
It also justifies the choices made at the conceptual level where design choices, vendors, and tools were selected after much due diligence. The due diligence process will continue when formulating this logical layer of the architecture. This layer produces an implementable blueprint that is essential to be able to design a solution. It is formulated...
