EA Maturity Measurement
NORA defines maturity levels for EA practice and application controls at each level, along with a Saudi maturity model issued by the Digital Government Authority.
Five levels from initial awareness to continuous improvement. Application controls and DGA requirements per level.
Why measure maturity?
Maturity levels help entities see where they stand and improve their EA practice over time. Application controls set mandatory and guidance requirements for each level.

What is maturity measurement?
Understand where you stand and improve the practice over time. The Saudi maturity model from DGA sets criteria and indicators per level.
Maturity levels
From initial awareness to continuous improvement. Each level has application controls and DGA requirements.
Each level defines organizational unit and governance committee requirements and application controls per DGA standards.
Initial awareness of the practice
Basic establishment (unit, committee, initial requirements)
Organized development (documentation, models, integration)
Advanced management and architecture-based decisions
Continuous improvement and strategic alignment
Application controls
Mandatory and guidance requirements per maturity level. Entities apply them by scope and practice size.
The Digital Government Authority (DGA) is responsible for issuing the EA maturity measurement guide and application controls under NORA.
