1. Reference Model Overview
The MyGovEA Reference Model is a set of living documents to which Malaysian Government
Ministries/ Agencies can refer for best practices in adopting and implementing MyGovEA that
will result in the delivery of more consistent and cohesive government services to citizens
(G2C), other government agencies (G2G) and businesses (G2B) that support cost-effective
delivery of integrated government services, providing a reference model that:
avoid 1st timer mistakes: faster learning curve and save time to jump start the
MyGovEA adoption
promote consistency for interoperability: prescriptive Guidelines with standard
templates for documents/viewpoints/views creation based on a common language for
agencies involved in the delivery of cross-agency services
enhance collaboration: supports the identification of duplicate, re-usable and
sharable services across ministries/agencies to reduce overlapping and duplication of
efforts.
reduce risk and increase future proofing: as technology advances, public sector ICT
assets can be easily adapted to the future needs.
promote standardization of MyGovEA notational language, processes and
frameworks: support for interoperability and interconnectivity through centralized
repository
accelerate the realization of digital government transformation: focus on citizen-
centric and agile government
The external reference architecture sources that have been used by other countries such as
USA, Europe and Australia are used as reference to derive this MyGovEA Reference Model
as follows:
1.) TOGAF – The Open Group Enterprise Architecture Framework: it provides an approach
for designing, planning, implementing, and governing an enterprise information
technology architecture. TOGAF is a high level approach to design that consist of four
CONFIDENTIAL MAMPU
Page 13 of 290
levels: Business, Application, Data, and Technology. It relies heavily on modularization,
standardization, and already existing, proven technologies and products.
2.) FEAF – Federated Enterprise Architecture Framework for US Government: it is an
initiative of the U.S. Office of Management and Budget, Office of E-Government and IT
that aims to realize the value of enterprise architecture within the U.S. Federal
Government and provide a common approach for IT acquisition in the United States
federal government. It is also designed to ease sharing of information and resources
across federal agencies, reduce costs, and improve citizen services. It is designed to
facilitate cross-agency analysis and the identification of duplicative investments, gaps
and opportunities for collaboration within and across agencies. The reference models
comprise a framework for describing important elements of federal agency operations
in a common and consistent way. Through the use of the FEAF and its vocabulary, IT
portfolios can be better managed and leveraged across the federal government,
enhancing collaboration and ultimately transforming the Federal government.
3.) EIRA – European Interoperability Reference Architecture: it is an architecture content
metamodel defining the most salient architectural building blocks (ABBs) needed to
build interoperable e-Government systems for delivering interoperable digital public
services across borders and sectors. The EIRA has four main characteristics:
a. Common terminology to achieve a minimum level of coordination: It
provides a set of well-defined ABBs that provide a minimal common
understanding of the most important building blocks needed to build
interoperable public services.
b. Reference architecture for delivering digital public services: It offers a
framework to categorise (re)usable solution building blocks (SBBs) of an e-
Government solution. It allows portfolio managers to rationalise, manage and
document their portfolio of solutions.
c. Technology- and product-neutral and a service-oriented architecture
(SOA) style: The EIRA adopts a service-oriented architecture style and
promotes ArchiMate as a modelling notation. In fact, the EIRA ABBs can be seen
as an extension of the model concepts in ArchiMate.
CONFIDENTIAL MAMPU
Page 14 of 290
d. Alignment with EIF and TOGAF: The EIRA is aligned with the European
Interoperability Framework (EIF) and TOGAF as it re-uses terminology and
paradigms from TOGAF such as architecture patterns, building blocks,
viewpoints and views.
The following Figure 1 shows how the MyGovEA Reference Model as a set of living
documents:
Figure 1: The MyGovEA Reference Model Formation
As the MyGovEA implementation covers more government Ministries and Agencies, the
Reference Model will be updated to reflect the adaptation and adoption of MyGovEA for the
respective ministries/agencies. There are 4 (four) Reference Models that will be covered:
1.) Business Reference Model: provides a framework that enables end-to-end
government functional view based on Malaysian Government’s Business Service
Category, independent of the ministries or agencies performing them.
CONFIDENTIAL MAMPU
Page 15 of 290
2.) Data Reference Model: provides a framework that enables information sharing and re-
use across the Malaysian Government, by grouping the information based on its Data
Category, independent of the ministries or agencies that produce them.
3.) Application Reference Model: provides a functional framework that is a business-
driven that classifies applications based on how they are used to support the business
objectives. This model allows the identification of possibilities to consolidate multiple
applications that provides similar services to the business.
4.) Technology Reference Model: provides a technical framework that categorizes the
standards and technologies to support the delivery of technology services and
capabilities. This model provides a guidance on how each ministries and agencies’
TRMs can be unified with the government-wide TRM by providing a foundation to
promote re-usability and standardization of technology and technology service
components from the government-wide perspective.
The following sub-sections will describe the 4 (four) reference model of MyGovEA.
Business Reference Model
The Business Reference Model (BRM) provides a framework that enables end-to-end
government functional view based on Malaysian Government’s Business Service Category,
independent of the ministries or agencies performing them. The BRM describe the Malaysian
Government based on its common Business Area Domain instead of a structured/sectoral
agency-by-agency view. This approach promotes ministry/agency collaboration as it groups
ministries and agencies by their common Business Area Domain, and aligns with Malaysia
Government’s Digital Government initiatives and strategies.
The Business Area Domain is the highest level of the BRM, to represent the common business
areas that the Malaysian Government is focusing into. Each Business Area Domain is broken
down into Business Service Categories, which consists of one or more Business Service Sub-
Categories.
CONFIDENTIAL MAMPU

The following Figure 2 shows how each level is represented in the BRM tiered hierarchy.
Figure 2: BRM Structure
Data Reference Model
The Data Reference Model (DRM) provides a framework which enables information sharing
and re-use across the Malaysian Government, by grouping the information based on its Data
Category, independent of the ministries or agencies that produce them. This approach allows
a visibility on how information can be re-use and shared in by ministries and agencies, as the
information is categorized according to each respective Business Service Category. The DRM
will serve as the underlying foundation to further enhance the DDSA initiative which Malaysian
Government has implemented.
The Data Area Domain represents the highest level in the DRM hierarchy, which corresponds
to BRM’s Business Area Domain. Each Data Area Domain is broken down into multiple Data
Category, to represent the information required by each BRM’s Business Service Category.
The lowest level which is Data Sub-Category represents a more detailed information required
by each BRM’s Business Function.
CONFIDENTIAL MAMPU

The following Figure 3 shows how each level is represented in the DRM tiered hierarchy.
Figure 3: DRM Structure
Application Reference Model
The Application Reference Model (ARM) provides a functional framework which is a business-
driven that classifies applications based on how they are used to support the business
objectives. This model allows the identification of possibilities to consolidate multiple
applications that provides similar services to the business.
The Application Domain represents the highest level in the ARM hierarchy, which corresponds
to BRM’s Business Area Domain. Each Application Domain is broken down into multiple
Application Category, to represent the application required by each BRM’s Business Service
Category. The lowest level which is Application Sub-Category represents application services
required by each BRM’s Business Function
The following Figure 4 shows how each level is represented in the ARM tiered hierarchy.
CONFIDENTIAL MAMPU

Figure 4: ARM Structure
Technology Reference Model
The Technology Reference Model (TRM) provides a technical framework which is a
component driven that categorizes the standards and technologies to support the delivery of
technology services and capabilities. This model provides a guidance on how each ministries
and agencies’ TRMs can be unified with the government-wide TRM by providing a foundation
to promote re-usability and standardization of technology and technology service components
from the government-wide perspective.
The alignment of Government-wide TRM and the ministries/agencies’ TRM will allow an easier
collaboration and interoperability among ministries/agencies due to a common, standardized
technology usage.
The following Figure 5 shows how each level is represented in the TRM tiered hierarchy.

2. Metamodel
Introduction
The metamodel is used as a technique to structure architectural information in an ordered way
so that it can be processed to model the MyGovEA relationship and integration across various
ministries and agencies that supports consistency, completeness, and traceability.
Structure
The structure of the metamodel consist of 4 (four) layers, namely Business Layer, Data Layer,
Application Layer and Technology Layer and 2 (two) concepts of Classification and
Implementation that will be described in the following sub sections.
The following Figure 6 shows the structure of the Metamodel:
CONFIDENTIAL MAMPU
Page 21 of 290
Figure 6: Metamodel Structure
CONFIDENTIAL MAMPU
Page 22 of 290
Metamodel Concepts
The metamodel concepts of Malaysian Government Reference Architecture (MGRA) are
described using ArchiMate notations which consist of Elements and their respective
relationships to describe the Classification and Implementations across Ministries and
Agencies:
1.) Malaysia Government Reference Architecture - MGRA (Classification): provides
the concepts of the reference model implementation guidelines based on the ArchiMate
viewpoints.
2.) Ministry/Agency Context (Implementation): provides the implementation of the
viewpoints within the context of the ministries and agencies through ArchiMate
viewpoints and their respective relationships.
Metamodel Elements by Layer
There are 4 layers of metamodel elements:
1.) Business Layer: describes the common business areas that the Malaysian
Government is focusing into. Each Business Area Domain is broken down into Business
Service Categories, which consists of one or more Business Service Sub-Categories.
2.) Data Layer: describes the data hierarchy, which corresponds to BRM’s Business Area
Domain. Each Data Area Domain is broken down into multiple Data Category to
represent the information required by each BRM’s Business Service Category. The
lowest level which is Data Sub-Category represents a more detailed information
required by each BRM’s Business Function.
3.) Application Layer: describes the Application hierarchy, which corresponds to BRM’s
Business Area Domain. Each Application Domain is broken down into multiple
Application Category, to represent the application required by each BRM’s Business
Service Category. The lowest level which is Application Sub-Category represents
application services required by each BRM’s Business Function
CONFIDENTIAL MAMPU
Page 23 of 290
4.) Technology Layer: describes a guidance on how each ministries and agencies’ TRMs
can be unified with the government-wide TRM by providing a foundation to promote re-
usability and standardization of technology and technology service components from
the government-wide perspective.

3. Business Reference Model
Introduction
The Business Reference Model (BRM) provides a framework that facilitates a functional (as
opposed to organisational) view of the Malaysian Government’s Business Service Categories.
This functional view includes the Malaysian Government’s internal operations and services for
citizens, individuals, businesses and other organisations, independent of the agencies
performing them.
While the BRM provides an improved way of thinking about government operations, it is only
a model: its true utility can only be realised when it is effectively used. The functional approach
promoted by the BRM can do little to help accomplish the goals of whole-of-government
initiatives if not incorporated into enterprise business architectures and management
processes of Malaysian Government agencies.
Structure
The structure of the BRM is a tiered hierarchy representing the business functions of the
Malaysian Government. The tiers are:
Level Component Description
Level 1 Business Area Domain
Describe the nature of the Government
functionality and activities surrounding the
operations of the Government
Level 2 Business Service
Category
Refers to the category of the services provided
by the Government, independent of the
ministries/agencies performing them
Level 3 Business Service Sub-
Category
Refers to the breakdown of the service category,
independent of the ministries/agencies
The BRM Business Area Domain separates the Malaysian Government activities into five (5)
distinct high-level categories:

4. Data Reference Model
Introduction
The Data Reference Model (DRM) is a framework whose primary purpose is to enable
information sharing and re-use across the Malaysian Government via the standard description
and discovery of common data and the promotion of uniform data management practices. The
DRM describes artefacts which can be generated from the data architectures of Malaysian
Government ministries and agencies. The DRM provides a flexible and standards-based
approach to accomplish its purpose. The scope of the DRM is broad; it may be applied within
a single agency, or within a Community of Interest (COI - collaborative groups of users who
require a shared vocabulary to exchange information in pursuit of common goals, interests
and business objectives.), or cross-COI.
The first version of DRM will focus on the categorization of data, based on each Business
Service Category defined in the Business Reference Model. The data categorization will then
be described in detail based on its standardization areas.
Structure
The structure of the DRM is a tiered hierarchy representing the data required for each business
functionality and services provided by the Malaysian Government. The tiers are:
Level Component Description
Level 1 Data Area Domain
Refers to the generalized categorization of data
based on the nature of the Government
functionality and activities surrounding the
operations of the Government
Level 2 Data Category Refers to a more specific category of the
services provided by the Government,
CONFIDENTIAL MAMPU
Page 116 of 290
Level Component Description
independent of the ministries/agencies
performing them
Level 3 Data Sub-Category
Refers to the detailed category of data required
by each respective service category,
independent of the ministries/agencies
During the implementation of Data Architecture in the Ministry/ Agency level, each data
identified will be mapped to its corresponding Data Sub-Category, as per stated in the Data
Reference Model. The data type, structure type, shareability, and taxonomy will also be
captured, in the form of Data Subject Properties.
Data Subject
Properties Description Example
Data Type Refers to the type of data
being represented, whether
it’s a data, information or
knowledge
Citizen IC Number (Data),
Business Registration
Information (Information),
Research Paper (Knowledge)
Data Structure Refers to the degree of
organization of the data
Unstructured, Structured
Data Security Refers to the level of
confidentiality and share-
ability of the data
Confidential (available to share
upon approval), Public (available
for sharing by default), Top Secret
(strictly cannot be shared)
Data Description Refers to the taxonomy of
the data. Currently this
capability is available
through MAMPU’s DDSA
Initiative
CONFIDENTIAL MAMPU
Page 117 of 290
In addition, the purpose of the data (and why it is important) is captured as Data Topic. An
example of how the Data Reference Model is mapped to the implementation of the Data
Reference Architecture is reflected through the next diagram.
Figure 13: A High-Level Example of How Ministry/Agency Level Data Architecture Implementation is mapped with Data Reference Model
The DRM Data Area Domain separates the Malaysian Government activities into five (5)
distinct high-level data area categories:

6. Technology Reference Model
Introduction
The Technology Reference Model (TRM) is a component-driven, technical framework
categorising the standards and technologies to support and enable the delivery of Application
Components and its capabilities (Application Services). It also unifies any existing agency-
specific TRMs into one common standards by providing a foundation to advance and promote
the re-use and standardisation of technology and Service Components from a government-
wide perspective.
Aligning agency capital investments to the TRM leverages a common, standardised
vocabulary, allowing better inter-agency discovery, collaboration and interoperability. Both
individual Public Agencies and the Malaysian Government will benefit from economies of scale
by identifying and re-using the best solutions and technologies to support the business
functions, mission and target architecture.
Structure
Organised in a hierarchy, the TRM categorises the standards and technologies that collectively
support the secure delivery, exchange and construction of business and application Service
Components that may be used and leveraged in a component-based or service-oriented
architecture (CBA or SOA, used synonymously from here onward). The tiers are:
