In the ArchiMate® specification, a Stakeholder represents the role of an individual, team, or organisation (or classes thereof) that represents their interests in the effects of the architecture. This definition is based on the TOGAF® (The Open Group Architecture Framework) definition where a Stakeholder has one or more interests in, or concerns about, the organisation and its enterprise architecture. In order to direct efforts to these interests and concerns, stakeholders change, set, and emphasise goals. The CEF eArchiving Building Block has defined three generic stakeholder types of the building block: archives, data producers and solution providers. The stakeholder list of the reference architecture is extended with two additional stakeholders: regulatory agencies and the data consumer. In a very high-level view, these stakeholders can include a variety of institutions, groups or even individuals. In order to be practical, these stakeholder groups have to be more clearly defined and refined. For the initial stages of the eArchiving Reference Architecture development (2020), the work will concentrate on addressing the needs of the above institutional settings.
