Abstract
Technology is fundamental to national security. Therefore making wise and timely investments in the most relevant research and development questions to address real and pressing needs is critical. This thesis is an investigation of the application of Enterprise Architecting frameworks and Systems Design methods to explore novel enterprise concepts, alternative enterprise architectures and relevant values to determine if they enhance and add measurable value to enterprise architecture of the early R&D collaboration, teaming, proposal refinement, selection and funding processes at MIT Lincoln Laboratory. The overall aim is to answer the holistic question of can we create and identify emergent value by applying an enterprise framework to the challenge of enterprise transformation. Particular emphasis is placed on examining the elements of culture as it relates to adopting new technology and processes to enable enterprise transformation.
