Paper Abstract:	In today’s business the optimization of the alignment between Business and IT can be assessed as a critical success factor for enterprises. For this reason the business management of an enterprise and the Enterprise Architecture Management (EAM) of the company should be integrated in a more consistent way to minimize application proliferation and to avoid information system silos. One possibility for achieving this is to provide and to visualize all necessary management information in only one IT-tool. In the enterprise management context Business Intelligence (BI) systems are information integrators which allow visualization and analyses of high quality and integrated business data. Also EAM systems have to collect, to manage and to visualize information from one or various sources. In this paper we demonstrate how information needed by EAM can also be modelled, stored, and business friendly visualized within a BI system. Thus, we demonstrate how Enterprise Architecture Visualization can be managed by a BI system.
