Logical/Physical Architecture Document:
+
Purpose:  To provide a conceptual architecture at an early stage (ideally project ideation/definition), that identifies the key strategic outcomes/capabilities served/realized by the initiative, and generally what shall be done for whom, and how success will be measured/determined.  It is a key deliverable in determining the initial architecture approval to proceed for all new/changing services, and projects at SSC.
