“…Many architecture projects are not successful because of the different challenges that they encounter in the process [39]. Some of the challenges are attributable to the gap that exists between the architects and other stakeholders, which manifest from attention being given to nontechnical issues [40].…”

“…To mitigate against the challenges, Banaeianjahromi, N., & Smolander suggest that it is crucial to understand the influencing factors during development [39]. In the context, there is a need to examine the relationship between architects and other stakeholders [40]. The development helps clarify the deployment and use of IS/IT solutions, which include processes, technical platforms, such as servers and databases, and of their mutual dependencies [57].…”

“…Phase 4: As shown in Figure 1, the implementation phase consists of four stages: Gap analysis; Migration planning; Implementation planning; and Project [12]. Although architects are responsible for the implementation of the architectures, they depend on executives, on decision relating to non-technical issues, which often pose challenges to architecture solutions [40]. This can be attributed to lack of implementation strategy.…”

This paper provides an insight about the significance of the enterprise technical architecture (ETA) in enabling and supporting the implementation of the South African National Health Insurance (NHI). Design: Existing documentations from both academic and government domains were gathered, and analyzed using the hermeneutics technique, from the perspective of interpretivist approach. Based on the analysis, the paper reveals the cruciality of the ETA in the implementation of the Universal health coverage (NHC) in the South African environment. The paper is intended to be of use for the core stakeholders of the NHI, which include governments' administrations, IT specialists, health practitioners, as well as academics.

“…In the sixth paper, Dale and Scheepers () address an ongoing problem that organizations have in implementing their enterprise architecture (EA) plans. Despite more than three decades of EA research, organizations continue to have difficulty implementing their EA plans and architects continue to have difficulty building shared understandings and objectives with their stakeholders.…”

The South African National Health Insurance (NHI) faces challenges due to a lack of an enterprise technical architecture (ETA) solution, for the implementation. This study aims to propose an ETA, to enable and support the implementation of the South African ETA. The qualitative method was employed in the data collection. Actor‐network theory (ANT) was applied as a lens to examine the data. The findings reveal several critical influencing factors, including readiness assessment, geographical locations of stakeholders; diversity of healthcare facilities; flexibility of technology solutions; and synchronization of processes and patients' data. The study highlights the need to provide governance for the technologies that influence the implementation of NHI. Based on the influencing factors, a framework was developed. The framework is intended to provide architectural governance (principles, standards, and policies), to efficiently and effectively, facilitate, support, and enable the implementation of the South African NHI.
