Why choosing TONEX as your FEAF training provider?

FEAF Training covers many aspects of Federal Enterprise Architecture Framework (FEAF). FEAF is an initiative of the US Office of Management and Budget that aims to comply with the Clinger-Cohen Act and provide a common methodology for information technology (IT) acquisition in the United States federal government. It is designed to ease sharing of information and resources across federal agencies, reduce costs, and improve citizen services.

The FEA is entirely business-driven. Its foundation is the Business Reference Model, which describes the government’s Lines of Business and its services. This business-based foundation provides a common framework for improvement in a variety of key areas such as:

• Budget Allocation

• Budget / Performance Integration
• Cross-Agency Collaboration
• E-Government
• Component-Based Architectures
