Scenario
Please read this scenario prior to answering the Question
Your role is that of Lead Enterprise Architect within the staff headquarters of a large hotel chain. The chain manages over 500 hotels across North America and Canada, with another 230 hotels internationally in the United Kingdom, Europe, Australia and New Zealand. Unlike other hotel chains, which are often a mix of company-owned and franchised units, each hotel in the chain is an independently owned and operated franchise. Many of the hotels use the same internal IT systems that they used before they joined the franchise. Until recently, the only requirement that has been placed on each hotel is that they use a standard financial reporting system to report their financial results to the headquarters on a weekly basis.
The CEO of the chain has stated his concerns about the inefficiencies of the current approach and identified the need to change. He has defined a new strategic vision that will enhance the business by providing its franchisees new support services including worldwide reservations, global, national and regional marketing as well as consolidated financial, logistics, and yield management. This strategy is part of the long-term commitment to enhance the brand image and drive superior revenue for the chain. He has also stated that he expects improved financial results by the end of the current fiscal year.
These changes will provide the chain with improved utilization of its capacity and more efficient operations. The addition of a corporate-wide data warehouse will provide analytics that will enable the marketing group to improve its ability to target advertising into key national and regional markets to improve yields.
The chain has a mature enterprise architecture practice based in its headquarters and uses TOGAF 9 as the method and guiding framework. The CIO is the sponsor of the activity.
In planning this change, the Chief Architect engaged the services of a well-known consulting firm that specializes in business strategy. An initial study has been conducted to identify the strategic changes needed to implement the CEO's vision. This recently completed with approval of a strategic architecture encompassing the entire chain, including detailed requirements and recommendations.
Based on the recommendations from the initial study, the chain has taken the decision to adopt a packaged suite of integrated applications that is tailored to the needs of the hospitality industry.

You have been asked by the Chief Architect to propose the best approach for architecture development to realize the CEO's vision.
Based on TOGAF, which of the following is the best answer?
Complete the sentence. The Architecture Landscape is divided into levels, Strategic Architectures, _____________
You are an Enterprise Architect working within a multinational company. The company has been very successful and has been buying companies around the world. It has led to a growing number of manufacturing divisions in various locations with a complex supply chain.
The top management recently expressed concerns about the company's effectiveness because of its multiple data centers and duplicate applications. The EA team has been working on a project to solve this issue. An analysis shows that supply chain issues have led to not enough products being produced to meet all the customer demand.
A strategic architecture has been defined to help meet customer demand and manage the supply chain more effectively. The strategic architecture involves combining different Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) applications that are currently used separately in the company's production sites.
Each division has finished the Architecture Definition documentation to address their own specific manufacturing needs. The enterprise architects have defined a set of work packages that address the gaps found. They have noted the value produced, work needed, and dependencies between work packages to achieve a target architecture for adding a new ERP environment into the company.
Because of the risks posed by this change from the current environment, the architects have recommended that a phased approach should be taken to implement the target architecture with several stages of change. The entire implementation process is estimated to take over two years.
The company has an established Enterprise Architecture (EA) practice and follows the TOGAF Architecture Development Method. The company also uses various management frameworks such as business planning, project/portfolio management, and operations management. The EA program is sponsored by the Chief Information Officer (CIO). In your role as an Enterprise Architect within the EA team, you work closely with the important stakeholders from the various divisions within the company.
You have been asked about the next steps in planning the migration.
