Populate the EA repository with the identified solution artifacts and create architecture review presentations.
Ensure architectures are used appropriately, conform to principles & standards, and are re-used by conducting a formal architecture review.
Finalize the architecture and complete required documentation. Create the final business case for sign-off.
