This [[Software framework|framework]] has been developed by [[Capgemini]] since the 1990s, from the experience of practicing architects on projects for clients across the group. The first version was released in 1996 and was based on the [[Zachman Framework]] and [[Steven Spewak|Spewaks]] ideas about [[Enterprise Architecture Planning]].<ref>Jaap Schekkerman (2003).
