NO.27 Scenario: Glacier Ridge LLC
Please read this scenario prior to answering the question
Glacier Ridge LLC is a vacation property management firm that is growing through acquisition. It manages over 200 resort properties across North America. Many of the resort properties use the same internal IT systems that they used before they were acquired. Until recently, the only requirement that has been placed en each property is that they use a standard financial reporting system to report their financials ID the headquarters on a weekly basis. The CEO 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 Glacier Ridge property business by standardizing its operations across the network to provide consolidated financial, human resources, logistics, sales and marketing, and yield management. He has also stated that he expects results by the end of the current fiscal year. These changes will provide the company 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 markets to improve yields. Glacier Ridge has mature enterprise architecture (EA) practice 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 firm, including detailed requirements and recommendations.
Based on the recommendations from the initial engagement, Glacier Ridge has embraced an Architecture Vision to adopt an enterprise application that is tailored to the needs of the hospitality industry.
Refer to the Glacier Ridge scenario
Your role is that of Chief Architect. You have been asked to recommend the best approach to take in this architecture engagement to realize the CEO’s vision. Based on TOGAF 9, which of the following is the best answer?

Since the initial engagement has identified the need to change, you recommend that the team focus on defining the target architecture by going through the architecture definition phases (B-D). This will ensure that the change can be defined in a structured manner and address the requirements needed to realize the vision.

Since the vision is well understood and the strategic architecture agreed, you recommend that the target architecture is defined first, followed by transition planning. This will ensure that the current inefficiencies of the baseline architecture are not carried forward, and that the proposed solution addresses the requirements identified in the initial architecture engagement.

You recommend that this engagement define the Technology Architecture first in order to assess the current infrastructure capacity and capability. Then the focus should be on transition planning and architecture deployment. This will identify requirements to ensure that the projects are sequenced in an optimal fashion so as to realize the vision.

You recommend that the team focus on architecture definition, with a specific emphasis on understanding the strategic change parameters of the business strategy. Once understood, the team will be in the best position to identify the requirements, drivers, issues, and constraints for this engagement.
You would ensure that the target architecture addresses non-functional requirements so as to help forecast future impacts.

NO.28 Scenario:
Please read this scenario prior to answering the Question
You are serving as the Chief Architect for a large, global commodities trading company which has been growing rapidly through a series of acquisitions.
Each business is performing well in its markets. However, the lack of integration between headquarters and the business units has increasingly caused problems in the handling of customer and financial information. The inability to share information across businesses has resulted in lost opportunities to “leverage the synergies” that had been intended when the businesses were acquired. At present, each business unit maintains its own applications. Despite an earlier initiative to install a common application to manage customer, products, supplier, and inventory information, each business unit has different ways of defining each of these core elements and has customized the common application to the point where the ability to exchange information is difficult, costly, and error-prone.
As a result, the company has made the decision to introduce a single enterprise-wide application to consolidate information from several applications that exist across the lines of business. The application will be used by all business units and accessed by suppliers through well defined interfaces.
The Corporate Board is concerned that the new application must be able to manage and safeguard confidential customer information in a secure manner that meets or exceeds the legal requirements of the countries in which the company operates. This will be an increasingly important capability as the company expands its online services in cooperation with its trading partners.
The CIO has formed an Enterprise Architecture department, and one of the primary goals in its charter is to coordinate efforts between the implementation team and the business unit personnel who will be involved in the migration process. The CIO has also formed a cross-functional Architecture Board to oversee and govern the architecture. The company has an existing team of security architects.
TOGAF 9 has been selected for use for the Enterprise Architecture program. The CIO has endorsed this choice with the full support of top management.
Refer to the Scenario
In the Preliminary Phase you need to define suitable policies and ensure that the company has the appropriate capability to address the concerns of the Corporate Board.
Based on TOGAF 9, which of the following is the best answer?

You start by clarifying the intent that the Board has for raising these concerns. This enables you to understand the implications of the concern in terms of regulatory requirements and the potential impact on current business goals and objectives. You propose that a security architect or security architecture team be allocated to develop a comprehensive security architecture and that this be considered an additional domain architecture.

You evaluate the implications of the Board’s concerns by examining the security and regulatory impacts on business goals, business drivers and objectives. Based on your understanding, you then update the current security policy to include an emphasis on the concerns. You define architecture principles to form constraints on the architecture work to be undertaken in the project. You then allocate a security architect to ensure that security considerations are included in the architecture planning for all domains.

You identify and document the security and regulatory requirements for the application and the data being collected. You ensure that written policies are put in place to address the requirements, and that they are communicated across the organization, together with appropriate training for key employees. You identify constraints on the architecture and communicate those to the architecture team. You establish an agreement with the security architects defining their role within the ongoing architecture project.

You evaluate the implications of the concerns raised by the Corporate Board in terms of regulatory requirements and their impact on business goals and objectives. Based on this understanding, you then issue a Request for Architecture Work to commence an architecture development project to develop a solution that will address the concerns. You allocate a security architect to oversee the implementation of the new application that is being developed.

NO.29 Scenario: Zephyr Enterprises
Please read this scenario prior to answering the question
Zephyr Enterprises specializes in the development of wind turbine blades for use in large-scale commercial wind energy production systems. Zephyr has manufacturing facilities located in Palm Springs, California, Omaha, Nebraska, and Winnipeg, Ontario. Each of these plants supplies a different manufacturer that builds and sells complete systems. The turbine blades are custom engineered to meet each manufacturers design specifications.
Until recently, most turbine blades were fabricated manually using molded fiber-reinforced plastics. However, recent improvements in composite materials, coupled with enhanced automated methods for precision application of materials during the molding process, have led to significant reduction in weight, increase in strength, and greatly improved blade longevity. Zephyr has pioneered the development of a proprietary automated process for continuous extrusion of the turbine blades. Patents have been filed to protect the process, but certain trade secrets must be closely guarded.
Zephyr has a mature Enterprise Architecture organization that is supported by a cross-functional Architecture Review Board. The Chief Information Officer and the Chief Operating Officer co-sponsor the Enterprise Architecture program.
Zephyr has used TOGAF and its Architecture Development Method (ADM) to develop its automated manufacturing processes and systems that are used to design, manufacture, and test the blade assemblies. They have recently updated to TOGAF 9 and have adapted the Zephyr Enterprise Architecture to closely follow the TOGAF 9 framework. All of Zephyrs IT architects have been trained and certified on TOGAF 9.Recently, an architecture project was completed that defined a standard approach for controlling the Automated Test System that is used at each plant to perform final quality assurance tests on each completed blade assembly.
The Manufacturing Architecture Board approved the plan for immediate implementation at each plant.
An Architecture Contract was developed that detailed the work needed to implement and deploy the new Automated Test System controller. The Chief Engineer, sponsor of the activity, has expressed concern that a uniform process be employed at each site to ensure consistency.
Refer to the Zephyr Enterprises Scenario
You have been assigned by the Lead Architect for the Automated Test System controller project to conduct Compliance Assessments at each manufacturing plant.
During the course of the assessment at the Omaha plant, you discover that the Distributed Data Acquisition System they have purchased uses a proprietary Remote Procedure Call (RPC) that utilizes kernel mode threads instead of the user mode threads that are specified in the Architecture Definition Document. In all other respects, the system meets the requirements stated in the Architecture Definition Document and seems to perform correctly.
You have been asked to describe the compliance of this system for the final report.
Based on TOGAF 9, which of the following is the best answer?

You observe that all of the features in the Architecture Definition Document have been implemented in accordance with the specification, except for the RPC mechanism. Your recommendation is that the system be described as conformant.

You observe that the system has many features in common with the Architecture Definition Document, and those features have been implemented in accordance with the specification. However, you note that the RPC mechanism has been implemented using features that are not covered by the specification.
Your recommendation is that the system be described as consistent.

You observe that the implementation of the RPC mechanism has no features in common with the Architecture Definition Document, therefore the question of its conformance should not be considered.
Your recommendation is that the system be described as consistent.

You observe that the system meets most of the requirements stated in the Architecture Definition Document and appears to work correctly. However, you note that the RPC mechanism has not been implemented according to the specification. Your recommendation is that the system be described as non-conformant.

NO.30

Based on all of these factors they have produced a risk assessment. They have also completed the Implementation and Migration Plan v0.1, the draft Architecture Roadmap, and the Capability Assessment deliverables.
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 Scenario
You have been asked to recommend the next steps to prepare the final Implementation and Migration Plan.
Based on TOGAF, which of the following is the best answer?

You recommend that the enterprise architects apply the Business Value Assessment Technique to prioritize the implementation projects and project increments. The assessment should focus on return on investment and performance evaluation criteria that can be used to monitor the progress of the architecture transformation. They should confirm the Transition Architecture phases using an Architecture Definition Increments Table to list tine projects. They should then document the lessons learned and generate the final Implementation and Migration Plan.

You recommend that the enterprise architects conduct a series of Compliance Assessments to ensure that the architecture is being implemented according to the contract. The Compliance Assessment should verify 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.

You recommend that the enterprise architects assess how the plan impacts the other frameworks in use in the organization. Minimally, the plan should be coordinated with the business planning, portfolio/project management and operations management frameworks. They should then assign a business value to each project, taking into account available resources and priorities for the projects. Finally, they should generate the Implementation and Migration Plan.

You recommend that the enterprise architects place the Architecture Definition Document under configuration control. This will ensure that the architecture remains relevant and responsive to the needs of the enterprise. They should then produce an Implementation Governance Model to manage the lessons learned prior to finalizing the plan. You recommend that lessons learned be applied as changes to the architecture without review.

NO.31 Scenario
Please read this scenario prior to answering the question
You have been appointed as a consultant to the Chief Enterprise Architect of a multinational pharmaceutical
corporation. The corporation includes 30 subsidiary companies with operations in over 60 countries and
products sold in over 125 countries. It has major research and development sites in over 45 locations
worldwide.
The management team is deeply committed to ensuring that the corporation is a world leader in socially
responsible pharmaceutical development with a business strategy that focuses on profitability through
environmentally friendly operating processes as well as a commitment to disease eradication.
The operations of the corporation are subject to legal and regulatory requirements for each country where they
operate. The production of prescription pharmaceutical products has governmental controls that are strictly
enforced and compliance is critical. Recently a competitor was heavily fined for violating the regulations in a
country where it was conducting a clinical trial for a new regulated drug.
The Governing Board is concerned about the risks posed in this complex global environment. As a result the
Chief Executive Officer (CEO) has appointed a Chief Compliance Officer (CCO) to be responsible for
overseeing and managing compliance issues for the corporation. The CCO reports directly to the CEO.
The CCO has approved the expenditure of resources to establish an Enterprise Architecture program. He has
requested to be informed about the status of projects that could impact regulatory compliance. He also wants
the corporate legal staff and auditors to analyze all proposed architectures to ensure that they are within the
legal guidelines for each country. In addition, the research organization should be able to see that the
architecture is appropriate for its needs.
TOGAF 9 has been mandated as the framework for the development and evolution of the Enterprise
Architecture practice. The Preliminary Phase has been completed to establish the enterprise architecture
capability for this project.
Refer to the Scenario
You have been asked to recommend an approach that would enable the development of an architecture that
addresses the needs of the Chief Compliance Officer, legal staff, auditors and the research organization.
Based on TOGAF, which of the following is the best answer?

You recommend that a stakeholder map be developed. This will allow the architects to define groups of
stakeholders that share common concerns. A set of views should be defined to address the concerns for
each group of stakeholders. Architecture models should then be created for each view to address the
stakeholders’ concerns.

You recommend that each project architecture activity is developed using a consistent modeling approach
that is uniform across all architecture projects. Each architecture should be defined based on this fixed set
of models so that all concerned parties can examine the models to ensure that their issues and concerns
have been addressed.

You recommend that a special report be created for those groups that have sufficient power and level of
interest. This report should summarize the key features of the architecture with respect to the particular
location. Each of these reports should reflect the stakeholders’ requirements.

You recommend that a set of models be created for each project architecture that can be used to ensure
that the system will be compliant with the local regulations. Stakeholders should then view the models to
verify that their concerns have been properly addressed.

NO.33 Scenario
Please read this scenario prior to answering the question
Your role is that of the Lead Architect working for a government agency responsible for immigration, customs, and border control. The agency was formed by consolidating several smaller government agencies.
The agency has established an Enterprise Architecture practice based on TOGAF 9. The CIO is the executive sponsor and has appointed an EA steering team to oversee the practice.
There has been a considerable increase in security requirements and immigration service requests in recent years, which have expanded the scope and size of the operations of the agency. As a result, the existing Information Technology architecture no longer meets the required service levels. A significant Enterprise Architecture (EA) initiative is in progress with the goal to improve customer responsiveness and satisfaction, and improve the overall operational efficiency of the agency.
The current EA staff members were internal appointments based on a request from the EA steering team to supply a number of suitable individuals for the EA effort. Collectively, they possess a broad range of IT and business analysis skills. However, the CIO has expressed concern about the diverse range of experience within the team. There is concern that the EA staff may be lacking in some of the critical skills that are required to properly conduct EA activities. It had been assumed that any EA-related skill gaps would be overcome by on-the-job mentoring from the senior members of the EA staff. Each architect was expected to attend a TOGAF training course and participate in other skill development activities.
A recent review of the EA program revealed that many EA staff members, despite attending multi-day training courses, were not proficient in analyzing or creating the models and artifacts required for their assigned architecture projects. Stakeholders have observed errors and inconsistencies in artifacts and deliverables being submitted for review.
Refer to the Scenario
The CIO has asked you to recommend a professional development plan for the EA staff in order to address the findings raised in the recent review.
Based on TOGAF, which of the following is the best answer?

You recommend that a comprehensive evaluation of key team leader skills be made using the TOGAF Architecture Skills Framework. Based on the evaluations, you will recommend the necessary staff changes. This will ensure that the team leaders have the necessary skills and experience for the architecture tasks within the agency. The role and skill categories defined in the TOGAF Architecture Skills Framework should then be shared with the department leaders so that in the future, they can make more informed choices when providing internal candidates for the EA team.

You recommend that an architecture maturity assessment should be conducted. This will identify the practices on which the agency should focus to see the greatest improvement and ensure that the basic enterprise architecture process is documented. As part of the assessment, all of the team leaders should be interviewed and their qualifications assessed. In order to rectify areas of low proficiency, they are expected to attend additional EA training courses. When the team leaders have achieved the desired levels of proficiency, they should apply a similar process for their staff members.

You recommend that you work with the EA steering team to adapt the TOGAF Architecture Skills Framework for use within the architecture practice at the agency. The categories of architecture roles, the required skills for each role and the desired level of proficiency for each role and skill will be defined by this framework. Each team member, or prospective team member, can then be evaluated for suitability against these roles and skills. Staffing and training adjustments can then be made as necessary to close gaps that are discovered.

You recommend that to address the issues identified in the review, the experienced team leaders should mentor the junior team members. At the same time additional training should be provided. Since it is now known that some models are improperly defined and may have caused cascading errors in other parts of the architecture, you recommend an iteration of the Migration Planning phase occur, so as to develop a coordinated transition to a new baseline using the last known good architecture. Once the artifacts are consistent and correct, these can be applied to this new baseline.

You have been assigned the role of Chief Enterprise Architect within a leading outsourcing services company.
The company has over 20,000 outsourcing professionals and works on some of the world’s largest outsourcing
projects. Outsourcing services include business processes, infrastructure, and service management. The
company also provides business consulting services.
With numerous service areas and a large number of diverse engagements in progress at any given time,
overall engagement management within the company has become challenging. The company does not want to
risk its outstanding reputation or its international certifications and CMM ratings.
The company has an established an Enterprise Architecture program based on TOGAF 9, sponsored jointly by
the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Information Officer. An Architecture Board has been formed comprised
of IT staff executives and executives from the major service areas and consulting practice.
The Enterprise Architecture (EA) team has been working with the Strategic Planning team to create a strategic
enterprise architecture to address these issues. The EA team has defined a framework and held workshops
with key stakeholders to define a set of architecture principles to govern the architecture work. They have
completed an Architecture Vision at a strategic level and laid out Architecture Definitions for the four domains.
They have set out an ambitious vision of the future of the company over a five-year period. This includes a
solution architecture including three distinct transformations.
The CIO has made it clear that prior to the approval of the detailed implementation and Migration plan, the EA
team will need to assess the risks associated with the proposed architecture. He has received concerns from
some of the vice presidents across the company that the proposed architecture may be too ambitious and they
are not sure it can produce sufficient value to warrant the attendant risks.
Refer to the Scenario
You have been asked to recommend an approach to satisfy these concerns.
Based on TOGAF, which of the following is the best answer?

The EA team should gather information about potential solutions from the appropriate sources. Once the
Solution Architecture has been assembled; it should be analyzed using a state evolution table to determine
the Transition Architectures. A value realization process should then be established to ensure that the
concerns raised are addressed.

Before preparing the detailed Implementation and Migration plan, the EA team should review and
consolidate the gap analysis results from Phases B to D to understand the transformations that are
required to achieve the proposed Target Architecture. The EA team should then assess the readiness of
the organization to undergo change. Oice the Solution Architecture has been assembled, it should be
analyzed using a state evolution table to determine the Transition Architectures.

The EA team should apply an interoperability analysis to evaluate any potential issues across the Solution
Architecture. This should include the development of a matrix showing the interoperability requirements.
Once all of the concerns have been resolved, the EA team should finalize the Architecture Roadmap and
the Implementation and Migration Plan.

The EA team should apply the Business Transformation Readiness Assessment technique. This will allow
the risks associated with the transformations to be identified and mitigated for. It will also identify
improvement actions to be worked into the Implementation and Migration Plan. The Business Value
Assessment technique should then be used to determine the business value and associated risks for the
transformation.

NO.38 Magic Wand Corporation manufactures a range of equipment used by magician worldwide. The global
popularity of a series of children’s books describing the formative years of a budding wizard and his various
escapades at wizard school has driven unprecedented sales growth in the magical equipment market.
The current IT systems at Magic Wand are struggling to cope with the high volumes in this growth market. The
CIO wants to persuade the board of Magic Wand Corporation to make a greater investment in the IT systems
to cope with the new higher transaction volumes. On of the key components the CIOs wants to include when
he approaches the board is a description of the current problems and how they may be addressed from an
architectural point of view.
As the High Architect of Magic Wand Corporation, the CIO has delegated the task of creating a vision for the
future Architecture to you.
Which of the following answers best describes how TOGAF recommends delivering an Architecture Vision for
the CIO?

Firstly, I ensure there is a Request for Architecture Work from the CIO. Then I ensure that there is
recognition for the architecture vision project by following any project management and programmed
management frameworks used within the organization. I would identify the key stakeholders and engage
with them to understand and document their concerns and high-level requirements. This would result in a
stakeholder map used to support other deliverables such as the Architecture Vision, a Communications
plan and a Statement of Architecture Work. I would then identify the business goals and strategic drivers of
the organization and define any enterprise or project specific constraints such as time and resources. I
would then define the business capabilities of the organization needed to fulfill those business goals and
drivers and their readiness for change. Once complete, I would define the scope, confirm the architecture
and business principles and develop the Architecture Vision. Following this, I would define the business
case for the architecture project, assess the business risks and produce a risk mitigation plan. I would then
define a plan of enterprise architecture work to meet the scope in the desired time line and the resources
required and secure the support of stakeholders.

I would start by ensuring there is a Request for Architecture Work from the sponsor (the CIO). I would then
create a project to define and deliver the architecture vision and the necessary outputs. The outputs include
an approved Statement of Architecture Work, refined statements of Businesses Principles, Business Goals
and Business Drivers, Architecture Principles, a Capability Assessment, a Tailored Architecture
Framework, an Architecture vision, a Communications plan. The Statement of Architecture Work needs to
be clear on the scope of architectural work, the resources needed to complete the work and amount of time
it would take to complete the work assuming the scope of architectural work is agreed and that all the
resources required are available. The final step would be to agree the Statement of Architectural Work with
stakeholders confirming the scope, schedule and confirming the availability of the necessary resources.

I would start by establishing the architecture project and follow the appropriate project management
method. I would identify stakeholders their concerns and business requirements then confirm and elaborate
the business goals, business drivers and constraints. I would then evaluate the business capabilities and
readiness for business transformation and define the scope. I would then develop the architecture vision,
define the target architecture value proposition, KPIs and identify and mitigate all risks associated with the
transformation effort. Finally, I would develop an Enterprise Architecture Plan and Statement of Work and

NO.39 Scenario: Rollins Manufacturing
Please read this scenario prior to answering the question
Rollins Manufacturing is a major supplier in the automotive industry, headquartered in Cleveland, Ohio with manufacturing plants in Chicago, Sao Paulo, Stuttgart, Yokohama, and Seoul. Each of these plants has been operating its own Manufacturing Requirements Planning (MRPII) system, production scheduling, and custom developed applications that drive the automated production equipment at each plant.
Rollins is implementing lean manufacturing principles to minimize waste and improve the efficiency of all of its production operations. During a recent exercise held for internal quality improvement, it was determined that a significant reduction in process waste could be achieved by replacing the current MRPII and scheduling systems with a common Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system located in the Cleveland data center. This central system would provide support to each of the plants replacing the functionality in the existing systems.
It would also eliminate the need for full data centers at each of the plant facilities. A reduced number of IT staff could support the remaining applications. In some cases, a third-party contractor could provide those staff.
The Rollins Enterprise Architecture department has been operating for several years and has mature, well-developed architecture governance and development processes that are strongly based on TOGAF 9.At a recent meeting, the Architecture Review Board approved a Request for Architecture Work from the Chief Engineer of Global Manufacturing Operations who is the project sponsor.

NO.44 Scenario: Zephyr Enterprises
Please read this scenario prior to answering the question
Zephyr Enterprises specializes in the development of wind turbine blades for use in large-scale commercial
wind energy production systems. Zephyr has manufacturing facilities located in Palm Springs, California,
Omaha, Nebraska, and Winnipeg, Ontario. Each of these plants supplies a different manufacturer that builds
and sells complete systems. The turbine blades are custom engineered to meet each manufacturers design
specifications.
Until recently, most turbine blades were fabricated manually using molded fiber-reinforced plastics. However,
recent improvements in composite materials, coupled with enhanced automated methods for precision
application of materials during the molding process, have led to significant reduction in weight, increase in
strength, and greatly improved blade longevity. Zephyr has pioneered the development of a proprietary
automated process for continuous extrusion of the turbine blades. Patents have been filed to protect the
process, but certain trade secrets must be closely guarded.
Zephyr has a mature Enterprise Architecture organization that is supported by a cross-functional Architecture
Review Board. The Chief Information Officer and the Chief Operating Officer co-sponsor the Enterprise
Architecture program.
Zephyr has used TOGAF and its Architecture Development Method (ADM) to develop its automated
manufacturing processes and systems that are used to design, manufacture, and test the blade assemblies.
They have recently updated to TOGAF 9 and have adapted the Zephyr Enterprise Architecture to closely follow
the TOGAF 9 framework. All of Zephyrs IT architects have been trained and certified on TOGAF 9.Recently, an
architecture project was completed that defined a standard approach for controlling the Automated Test
System that is used at each plant to perform final quality assurance tests on each completed blade assembly.
The Manufacturing Architecture Board approved the plan for immediate implementation at each plant.
An Architecture Contract was developed that detailed the work needed to implement and deploy the new
Automated Test System controller. The Chief Engineer, sponsor of the activity, has expressed concern that a
uniform process be employed at each site to ensure consistency.
Refer to the Zephyr Enterprises Scenario
You have been assigned by the Lead Architect for the Automated Test System controller project to conduct
Compliance Assessments at each manufacturing plant.
During the course of the assessment at the Omaha plant, you discover that the Distributed Data Acquisition
System they have purchased uses a proprietary Remote Procedure Call (RPC) that utilizes kernel mode
threads instead of the user mode threads that are specified in the Architecture Definition Document. In all other
respects, the system meets the requirements stated in the Architecture Definition Document and seems to
perform correctly.
You have been asked to describe the compliance of this system for the final report.
Based on TOGAF 9, which of the following is the best answer?

You observe that all of the features in the Architecture Definition Document have been implemented in
accordance with the specification, except for the RPC mechanism. Your recommendation is that the
system be described as conformant.

You observe that the system has many features in common with the Architecture Definition Document, and
those features have been implemented in accordance with the specification. However, you note that the
RPC mechanism has been implemented using features that are not covered by the specification. Your
recommendation is that the system be described as consistent.

You observe that the implementation of the RPC mechanism has no features in common with the
Architecture Definition Document, therefore the question of its conformance should not be considered. Your
recommendation is that the system be described as consistent.

You observe that the system meets most of the requirements stated in the Architecture Definition
Document and appears to work correctly. However, you note that the RPC mechanism has not been
implemented according to the specification. Your recommendation is that the system be described as non-
conformant.

some of the world’s largest outsourcing projects. Outsourcing services include business processes,
infrastructure, and service management. The company also provides business consulting services. Roughly
half of its turnover comes from the private sector and hal from the public sector.
With numerous service areas and a large number of diverse engagements in progress at any given time,
overall engagement management within the company has become challenging. The company has recently had
a number of high profile projects that have overrun on budget and under delivered, thereby damaging its
reputation and adversely impacting its share price.
The company has established an Enterprise Architecture program based on the TOGAF standard, sponsored
jointly by the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Information Officer. An Architecture Board has been formed
comprised of IT staff executives and executives from the major service areas and consulting practice.
The Enterprise Architecture (EA) team has been working with the Strategic Planning team to create a strategic
Enterprise Architecture to address these issues. The EA team has defined a framework and held workshops
with key stakeholders to define a set of architecture principles to govern the architecture work. They have
completed an Architecture Version at a strategic level and laid our Architecture Definitions for the four domains.
They have set out an ambitious vision of the future of the company over a five-year period. This will include
three distinct transformations.
The CIO has made it clear that prior to the approval of the detailed implementation and Migration plan, the EA
team will need to assess the risks associated with the proposed architecture. He has received concerns from
some of the vice presidents across the company that the proposed architecture may be too ambitious and they
are not sure it can produce sufficient value to warrant the risks.
Refer to the Scenario
You have been asked to recommend an approach to satisfy these concerns.
Based on the TOGAF Standard, Version 9.2, which of the following is the best answer?

Before preparing the detailed Implementation and Migration plan, the EA team should review and
consolidate the gap analysis results from Phases B to

This can be used to understand the
transformations that are required to achieve the proposed Target Architecture. The EA team should then
assess the readiness of the organization to undergo change. Once the architecture has been assembled, it
should be analyzed using a state evolution table to determine the Transition Architectures.

The EA team should apply an interoperability analysis to evaluate any potentital issues across the
architecture. This should include the development of a matrix showing the interoperability requirements.
Once all of the concerns have been resolved, the EA team should finalize the Architecture Roadmap and
the Implementation and Migration Plan.

The EA team should evaluate the organization’s readiness to undergo change. This will allow the risks
associated with the transformations to be identified and mitigated for. It will also identify improvement
actions to be worked into the Implementaion and Migration Plan. The Business Value Assessment
technique should then be used to detetmine the business value and associated risks for the transformation.

The EA team should bring together information about potential solutions from the appropriate sources.
Once the target architecture has been assembled, it should be analyzed using a state evolution table to
determine the Transition Architectures. A value realization process should then be established to ensure
that the concerns raised are addressed.

The company has a mature enterprise architecture practice and uses TOGAF 9 for the basis of its architecture framework. In addition to the EA program, the company 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.
The company has defined a strategic architecture to improve its ability to meet customer 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 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.
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 requirements, dependencies and interoperability requirements needed to integrate the new ERP environment into the existing environment. The architects have completed the Business Transformation Readiness Assessment started in Phase A.
Based on all of these factors they have produced a risk assessment. They have also completed the Implementation and Migration Plan v0.1, the draft Architecture Roadmap, and the Capability Assessment deliverables.
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 Scenario
You have been asked to recommend the next steps to prepare the final Implementation and Migration Plan.
Based on TOGAF, which of the following is the best answer?

You recommend that the enterprise architects assess how the plan impacts the other frameworks in use in the organization. Minimally, the plan should be coordinated with the business planning, portfolio/ project management and operations management frameworks. They should then assign a business value to each project, taking into account available resources and priorities for the projects. Finally, they should generate the Implementation and Migration Plan.

Certification Details

There are two pathways that lead to getting the TOGAF 9 Certified. One path includes completing two aforementioned exams separately while the second one offers to pass a single test that combines both of them in one sitting. To remind you, the required exams are Part 1 (OG0-091) and Part 2 (OG0-092). Part 1 will qualify you as a TOGAF 9 Foundation certified individual. It is recommended to finish the two parts in one day but you can choose to sit for the second part on the other day. Just make sure to bring a TOGAF 9 Foundation entry in the Directory of Certified People as proof that you’re eligible to take OG0-092 test.
