Zachman Definition

"Rule Specification"

This will be the "out-of-context" specification of the business rules.

Select Perspective

The output of this cell is meant by Zachman to be adequate for a subcontractor to work with.  Select Perspective does not distinguish between in-house and oytsourcing development because it recognises that there will be at least two teams (logical or physical) involved; that which specifies and integrates components (the Solution Team) and that which builds the components (the Component Team).  Therefore, whether the teams are in-house or external, effective communication and documentation processes must be in place.

Select Perspective recommends that all teams have access to the models but where this is not possible, full documentation be produced from the model.
