This post lists proposals for improvement in EIRA that I came across in the #pdf2wiki effort for EIRA Version 3.
As EIRA has been developed over the period in which also ArchiMate has evolved, several of these comments are related to the use of newer model elements that only came available in later versions.

(Business) capability model it as a Capability and not as a Business Object
Public service consumer, Legislation Catalogue, … model them as a Resource and not as a Business Object
Organisation define it broader then only as a public sector body
Key Sharing and Reuse Enablers, Key Information Exchange Enablers,Key Interoperability Agreement Enablers model them as specializations of Enabler grouping, not of Assessment
Infrastructure Data Source Enablers, Infrastructure Privacy Enablers, Infrastructure Security Enablers, Infrastructure Technology Governance Enablers, Infrastructure Financial Transaction Enablers, Infrastructure Discovery Enablers, Infrastructure Translation Enablers, Application Presentation and Access Enablers, Application Security Enablers, Application Mediation Enablers, Application Workflow Enablers, Application Test Enablers model them as specializations of Enabler grouping, not as a visual group element

Proposed improvements in EIRA by janbmgojanbmgo, 30 May 2020 09:08

On the one hand, the description explains the role of Theories of Change in development initiatives.

A question on the embedded video by Transform GhanaPeace (@transformghana_ on Twitter) helped me to clarify a "#aaaa42 Theory of Change" that becomes possible via the use of the country specific hashtags for the sustainable development goals and targets.

How long does Twitter store hashtag information?.

The addition in ArchiMate 3.0 of application, technology and implementation event is noted. I am puzzled though with the absence of physical events - and other behaviour elements for the physical elements - with the justification "Rather, the behavior elements from the Technology Layer (technology function, process, interaction, service, and event) are used to model the behavior of all nodes, including physical equipment.
On the other hand, the spec chapter 15.2.5 gives the example of a threat event 'Tornado hits factory" - this event is not instantaneous, yet to me it clearly is a physical event.

A report at the Microfinance Gateway summarizes the findings of a study that examines the potential social and economic benefits of mobile financial services (MFS) over the next decade. It is based on data from Pakistan, Bangladesh, India, Serbia and Malaysia. The report identifies prerequisites for a successful MFS system, projects the evolution of MFS adoption and highlights regulatory issues. Findings include:

  • MFS will drive financial inclusion in the next decade;
  • MFS could accelerate economic growth by up to 5 percent by fuelling entrepreneurship and creating jobs;
  • MFS will reduce income inequality by providing financial access to the poorest segments.

The report states that many of the developing world’s financially excluded people already have mobile phones and relationships with telecommunication companies. For MFS to realize its potential as a powerful tool for social and economic development, regulators need to ensure a supportive environment that manages risk and promotes innovation.

Find the full report at The Socio-Economic Impact of Mobile Financial Services: Analysis of Pakistan, Bangladesh, India, Serbia and Malaysia.

The report is also posted at Zunia.

Footnote: Regulation is an "institutional" interaction of the social order with a collective impact in that order.
