A qualitative approach was used to obtained through in-depth interviews with company’s owners and managers, observation data of company’s IT asset also collected to describe organization’s current IS/IT landscape and applies the TOGAF ADM phases to design an enterprise architecture that supports business-IT alignment. This study demonstrates how TOGAF ADM can provide a structured methodology for identifying business needs, defining architectural visions, and developing a roadmap for IS/IT improvements. Findings indicate that using EA frameworks such as TOGAF ADM enhances strategic planning capabilities, supports organizational agility, and provides a repeatable model for similar enterprises in the rental or industrial sector. The results offer valuable insights for practitioners and researchers interested in applying enterprise architecture to improve IS/IT strategic planning processes.
