DoDAF 2.0 is composed of a set of deliverables, called viewpoints, which address different parts of an enterprise architecture. These viewpoints are grouped into models. Models that focus on the same perspective are placed in the same viewpoint.

DoDAF 2.0 organizes architectures into eight different viewpoints.

Each viewpoint portrays certain architecture features. Some features span several viewpoints and provide integrity, coherence, and consistency to architecture descriptions.
