Classify information, assets and services

Classification provides a way of quickly understating the nature of information used by an organisation as well as the functional capability of an organisation’s applications and technologies. Classification helps identify gap areas or duplication in the information, application and technology assets and services.

It is normal in an organisation that descriptions of similar or like types of information and digital or technology assets can differ greatly. Classification proves a straightforward way of normalising business terminology when referring to information assets, application and technology assets and services.

Work with the business unit representatives or the enterprise architecture representatives to ensure your classifications comply, or are compatible with, any relevant classification frameworks used by the organisation.

Visit Queensland Government Enterprise Architecture for details on currently used classification frameworks. Each agency may also have business specific classification frameworks.

Refer to the Enterprise architecture classification guideline and the and ICT profiling tool for more information.
