Q2. Scenario 

Please read this scenario prior to answering the Question 

You are serving as the Lead Architect for the enterprise architecture team at a large multinational aerospace and defense company. The company has grown rapidly by acquisition and has inherited numerous different procurement processes and related IT systems. Several procurement processes have had problems related to the timing of purchases, which has led to excess inventory. The Vice President in charge of Supply Chain Management has made the decision to consolidate and reduce redundant procurement processes and systems. The company will move to a "Just-in-time" procurement system so as to keep inventory costs low. 

TOGAF 9 is used for internal Enterprise Architecture activities. This project is using an iterative approach for executing the Architecture Development Method (ADM). 

At present, there are no particularly useful architectural assets in the Architecture Repository that are related to this initiative. All assets will need to be acquired, customized, or created from scratch. The company prefers to implement commercial off the shelf package applications with little customization. The CIO, who is the project sponsor, has stated that she is not concerned about preserving the existing procurement processes or systems. 

The architecture development project has completed the Preliminary Phase and has started a number of iteration cycles to develop the Architecture. As a packaged application is being considered, the next iteration will include both the Business and Application Architectures. Key stakeholder concerns that should be addressed by these architectures include: 

1. What groups of people should be involved in procurement-related business processes? 

2. What are the overall lifetimes of the Request for Proposal and Purchase Order business objects? 

3. What non-procurement applications will need to be integrated with any new procurement applications? 

Refer to the Scenario 

[Note: You may need to refer to Chapter 35 of the reference text in order to answer this question.] You have been asked to identify the most appropriate catalogs, matrices, and diagrams to support the next iteration of Architecture development. 

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

A. In the next iteration of Architecture development, you would describe the Baseline Business Architecture with a Business Service/Function catalog, an Organization/Actor catalog, and a Data EntityyBusiness Function matrix. You would describe the Baseline Application Architecture with an Application/Function matrix. 

B. In the next iteration of Architecture development, you would describe the Target Business Architecture with a Business ServiceyFunction catalog, an Organization/Actor catalog, and Data Lifecycle diagrams. You would describe the Target Application Architecture with Application Communication diagrams and an Application Interaction matrix. 

C. In the next iteration of Architecture development, you would describe the Target Business Architecture with a Business Service/Function catalog, a Business Interaction matrix, and Product Lifecycle diagrams. You would describe the Target Application Architecture with Application Communication diagrams and an Application Interaction matrix. 

D. In the next iteration of Architecture development, you would describe the Baseline Business Architecture with a Baseline Business Process catalog, and an Object lifecycle catalog. You would describe the Baseline Application Architecture with a Technology Portfolio catalog.

Q13. Scenario: Acme Widgets Inc. 

Please read this scenario prior to answering the question 

Acme Widgets Inc. manufactures a variety of small electromechanical devices. As part of a corporate-wide Lean Manufacturing initiative, it has defined a strategic architecture to improve its ability to meet consumer demand and improve its ability to manage its supply chain. The strategic architecture called for the consolidation of multiple Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) applications that have been operating independently in several of the divisions' production facilities. The goal is to replace the functionality of the existing applications with a new ERP product running as a single instance in the company's primary data center. 

Acme has a mature enterprise architecture practice and uses TOGAF 9 for the basis of its architecture framework, [n addition to the EA program, Acme has a number of management frameworks in use, including business planning, portfolio/project management, and operations management. The EA program is sponsored by the CIO. 

Each division has completed the Architecture Definition documentation required to tailor and configure the environment to meet its own specific manufacturing requirements. 

The enterprise architects have analyzed the key corporate change attributes and implementation constraints. A consolidated gap analysis has been completed which has identified the gaps across the Business, Data, Application, and Technology domains. Based on the results of the gap analysis, the architects have reviewed the functional requirements and interoperability requirements needed to integrate the new ERP environment into the existing environment. 

Based on all of these factors, the architects have assessed the organization's readiness to conduct the business transformation and have produced a risk assessment. 

Because of the risks posed by the complexity of the current environment, it has been determined that a phased approach is needed to implement the target architectures. The overall implementation process is estimated to take several years. 

Refer to the Acme Widgets Scenario 

Your role is consultant to the Lead Architect. 

The Implementation and Migration Plan v.0.l, the Transition Architectures v1.0, and the Capability Assessment deliverables are now complete. You have been asked to recommend the next steps to prepare the final Implementation and Migration Plan. 

Based on TOGAF 9, which of the following is the best answer? 

A. You would apply the Business Value Assessment Technique to prioritize the implementation projects and project increments. Thus assessment should focus on return on investment and performance evaluation criteria that can be used to monitor the progress of the architecture transformation. You would confirm the Transition Architecture phases using an Architecture Definition Increments Table to list the projects. You would then document the lessons learned and generate the final plan. 

B. You would conduct a set of Compliance Assessments to ensure that the implementation team is implementing the architecture according to the contract(s). The Compliance Assessment should also ensure that the implementation team is using the proper development methodology. It should include deployment of monitoring tools and ensure that performance targets are being met. If they are not met, then changes to performance requirements should be identified and updated in the Implementation and Migration Plan. 

C. You would assess how the plan impacts the other frameworks in use. Minimally, the plan should be coordinated with the business planning, portfolio/project management and operations management frameworks. You would then assign a business value to each project, taking into account available resources and priorities for the projects. Finally, you would generate a time-lined Implementation and Migration Plan. 

D. You would place the strategic Architecture Definition and Transition Architectures under configuration control as part of the ongoing evolution cycle. This will ensure that the architecture remains relevant and responsive to the needs of the enterprise. You would then produce an Implementation Governance Model to manage the lessons learned prior to finalizing the plan. You recommend that lessons learned be accepted by the Architecture Board as changes to the architecture without review.
