Question 16

Please read this scenario prior to answering the question

Your role is that of a consultant to the Lead Enterprise Architect to an international supplier of

engineering services and automated manufacturing systems. It has three manufacturing plants

where it assembles both standard and customized products for industrial production

automation. Each of these plants has been operating its own planning and production

scheduling systems, as well as applications and control systems that drive the automated

production line.

The Enterprise Architecture department has been operating for several years and has mature,

well-developed architecture governance and development processes that are based on the

TOGAF Standard. The CIO sponsors the Enterprise Architecture.

During a recent management meeting, a senior Vice-President highlighted an interview where

a competitor company's CIO is reported as saying that their production efficiency had been

improved by replacing multiple planning and scheduling systems with a common Enterprise

Resource Planning (ERP) system located in a central data center. Some discussion followed,

with the CIO responding that the situations are not comparable, and the current architecture is

already optimized.

In response, the Architecture Board approved a Request for Architecture Work covering the

investigations to determine if such an architecture transformation would lead to improvements

in efficiency. You have been assigned to support the architecture team working on this project.

A well-known concern of the plant managers is about the security and reliability of driving their

planning and production scheduling from a remote centralized system. Any chosen system

would also need to support the current supply chain network consisting of local partners at

each of the plants.

Refer to the scenario

You have been asked to explain how you will initiate the architecture project.

Based on the TOGAF Standard, which of the following is the best answer?

Options:

You would research vendor literature and conduct a series of briefings with vendors

that are on the current approved supplier list. Based on the findings from the

research, you would define a preliminary Architecture Vision including summary

views, high-level requirements, and high-level definitions of the baseline and target

environments from a business, information systems, and technology perspective. You

wou

You would conduct a pilot project that will enable vendors to demonstrate potential

off-the-shelf solutions that address the concerns of the stakeholders. Running a pilot

project will save time and money later in the process. Based on the findings of that

pilot project, a complete set of requirements can then be developed that will drive the

evolution of the architecture. Once the requirements are completed, a formal

You would hold a series of interviews at each of the manufacturing plants using the

business scenarios technique. This will allow you to understand the systems and

integrations with local partners. You would use stakeholder analysis to identify key

players in the engagement, and to understand their concerns. You will then identify

and document the key high-level stakeholder requirements for the architecture. You

You would develop baseline and target Architectures for each of the manufacturing

plants, ensuring that the views corresponding to selected viewpoints address key

concerns of the stakeholders. A business case, together with performance metrics

and measures should be defined to ensure the architecture meets the business

needs. A consolidated gap analysis between the architectures will then validate the

approach

Discussion

Answer:

Explanation:

The best answer is C. You would hold a series of interviews at each of the manufacturing plants using the business scenarios technique. This will allow you to understand the systems and integrations with local partners. You would use stakeholder analysis to identify key players in the engagement, and to understand their concerns. You will then identify and document the key high-level stakeholder requirements for the architecture. You will then generate high level definitions of the baseline and target architectures.

This answer is based on the TOGAF standard, which recommends the following steps to initiate the architecture project1:

Establish the architecture project

Identify stakeholders, concerns, and business requirements

Confirm and elaborate business goals, business drivers, and constraints

Evaluate business capabilities

Assess readiness for business transformation

Define scope

Confirm and elaborate Architecture Principles, including business principles

Develop Architecture Vision

Define the Target Architecture value propositions and KPIs

Identify the business transformation risks and mitigation activities

Secure stakeholder and sponsor approval

The answer C covers most of these steps, by using the business scenarios technique to elicit and validate the business requirements, goals, drivers, and constraints, as well as the current and future states of the architecture2. The answer C also uses stakeholder analysis to identify and engage the key stakeholders, and to address their concerns and expectations3. The answer C also generates high level definitions of the baseline and target architectures, which can be used to develop the Architecture Vision and the value propositions4.

The other answers are not the best approach for architecture development, because:

Answer A focuses on researching vendor literature and conducting briefings with vendors, which is not the best way to understand the business needs and the current situation of the enterprise. Answer A also defines a preliminary Architecture Vision without involving the stakeholders or validating the requirements, which may lead to misalignment and lack of consensus.

Answer B conducts a pilot project that will enable vendors to demonstrate potential solutions, which is premature and costly at this stage of the architecture project. Answer B also does not address the stakeholder concerns or the current systems and integrations, which may result in gaps and risks. Answer B also develops the requirements after the pilot project, which may not reflect the actual business needs and goals.

Answer D develops baseline and target architectures for each of the manufacturing plants, which may not consider the enterprise-wide perspective and the potential benefits of a common ERP system. Answer D also does not involve the stakeholders or address their concerns, which may result in resistance and conflict. Answer D also does not define the business case or the performance metrics, which are essential for demonstrating the value and feasibility of the architecture.

Question 17

Please read this scenario prior to answering the question

You are the Lead Enterprise Architect at a major agribusiness company. The company's main

annual harvest is lentils, a highly valued food grown worldwide. The lentil parasite, broomrape,

has been an increasing concern for many years and is now becoming resistant to chemical

controls. In addition, changes in climate favor the propagation and growth of the parasite. As a

result, the parasite cannot realistically be exterminated, and it has become pandemic, with lentil

yields falling globally.

The CEO appreciates the seriousness of the situation and has set out a change in direction

that is effectively a new business for the company. There are opportunities for new products,

and new markets. The company will use the fields for another harvest and will cease to process

third-party lentils. Thus, the target market will change, and the end-products will be different

and more varied. This is a major decision and the CEO has stated a desire to repurpose rather

than replace so as to manage the risks and limit the costs.

The company has a mature Enterprise Architecture practice based in its headquarters and uses

the TOGAF standard as the method and guiding framework. The practice has an established

Architecture Capability, and uses iteration for architecture development. The CIO is the sponsor

of the activity.

The CIO has assigned the Enterprise Architecture team to this activity. At this stage there is no

shared vision, or requirements.

Refer to the scenario

You have been asked to propose the best approach for architecture development to realize the

CEO's change in direction for the company.

Based on the TOGAF standard which of the following is the best answer?

Options:

You propose that the team focus on architecture definition, with emphasis on defining

the change parameters to support this new business strategy that the CEO has

identified. Once understood, the team will be in the best position to identify the

requirements, drivers, issues, and constraints for the change. You would ensure that the

architecture development addresses non-functional requirements to assure that the

You propose that this engagement define the baseline Technology Architecture first in

order to assess the current infrastructure capacity and capability for the company. Then

the focus should be on transition planning and incremental architecture deployment.

This will identify requirements to ensure that the projects are sequenced in an optimal

fashion so as to realize the change.

You propose that the priority is to understand and bring structure to the definition of the

change. The team should focus iteration cycles on a baseline first approach to

architecture development, and then transition planning. This will identify what needs to

change in order to transition from the baseline to the target, and can be used to work out

in detail what the shared vision is for the change.

You propose that the team focus its iteration cycles on architecture development by

going through the architecture definition phases (B-D) with a baseline first approach.

This will support the change in direction as stated by the CEO. It will ensure that the

change can be defined in a structured manner and address the requirements needed to

realize the change.

Discussion

Answer:

Explanation:

Based on the TOGAF standard, this answer is the best approach for architecture development to realize the CEO’s change in direction for the company. The reason is as follows:

The scenario describes a major business transformation that requires a clear understanding of the current and future states of the enterprise, as well as the gaps and opportunities for change. Therefore, the priority is to understand and bring structure to the definition of the change, rather than focusing on the implementation details or the technology aspects.

The team should use the TOGAF ADM as the method and guiding framework for architecture development, and adapt it to suit the specific needs and context of the enterprise. The team should also leverage the existing Architecture Capability and the Architecture Repository to reuse and integrate relevant architecture assets and resources.

The team should focus iteration cycles on a baseline first approach to architecture development, which means starting with the definition of the Baseline Architecture in each domain (Business, Data, Application, and Technology), and then defining the Target Architecture in each domain. This will help to identify the current and desired states of the enterprise, and to perform a gap analysis to determine what needs to change in order to achieve the business goals and objectives.

The team should then focus on transition planning, which involves identifying and prioritizing the work packages, projects, and activities that will deliver the change. The team should also create an Architecture Roadmap and an Implementation and Migration Plan that will guide the execution and governance of the change.

The team should use the Architecture Vision phase and the Requirements Management phase to work out in detail what the shared vision is for the change, and to capture and validate the stakeholder requirements and expectations. The team should also use the Architecture Governance framework to ensure the quality, consistency, and compliance of the architecture work.

Question 19

Which of the following is a responsibility of an Architecture Board?

Options:

Conducting assessments of the maturity level of architecture discipline within the organization

Allocating resources for architecture projects

Creating the Statement of Architecture Work

Establishing targets for re-use of components

Discussion

Answer:

Explanation:

An Architecture Board is an executive-level group responsible for the review and maintenance of the strategic architecture and all of its sub-architectures1. It is a key element in a successful Architecture Governance strategy2.

An Architecture Board is typically made responsible, and accountable, for achieving some or all of the following goals2:

Providing the basis for all decision-making with regard to the architectures

Consistency between sub-architectures

Establishing targets for re-use of components

Flexibility of the Enterprise Architecture: To meet changing business needs To leverage new technologies

Enforcement of Architecture Compliance

Improving the maturity level of architecture discipline within the organization

Ensuring that the discipline of architecture-based development is adopted

Supporting a visible escalation capability for out-of-bounds decisions

Therefore, the correct answer is option D, which captures one of the goals of an Architecture Board as stated in the TOGAF Standard, Version 9.22.

Option A is incorrect, because conducting assessments of the maturity level of architecture discipline within the organization is not a direct responsibility of an Architecture Board, but rather a part of the Architecture Capability Framework3.

Option B is incorrect, because allocating resources for architecture projects is not a direct responsibility of an Architecture Board, but rather a part of the Architecture Governance Framework4.

Option C is incorrect, because creating the Statement of Architecture Work is not a direct responsibility of an Architecture Board, but rather a part of the Architecture Development Method5. References:
