The Business Architecture of the General Comptroller of the Republic of Colombia has been evaluated through the analysis of the factors that are considered critical for its performance. The critical factors were identified as the organizational scheme and its measurement in terms of adaptability, effectiveness and efficiency. To do this, an instrument was designed and Principal Components Analysis was applied to reduce the dimensions and obtain the factors that facilitate the analysis of the information on the current state of the Business Architecture. This is done according to the lines defined in the phases of the ADM (Architecture Development Method) methodology cycle. The study allows establishing a set of conditions for the representation of the current state according to the architectural capacity requirements of the ADM. Based on the results, it is concluded that through the analysis of the factors considered critical for the performance of the organization, it is possible to evaluate the current state of the Business Architecture.
