Please read this scenario prior to answering the question.
You are employed as an Enterprise Architect within an Enterprise Architecture team at a large food services company.
The company has a mature EA practice and uses the TOGAF standard for its architecture work. In addition to using the TOGAF standard, the company uses a number of management frameworks, including project management and operations management. The Chief Information Officer is the sponsor of the EA program within the company.
The company focuses on sales to trade and wholesale customers, for example, restaurants and other food sellers. It sells a variety of products and serves a number of different markets. One of the company’s rivals has launched a competing product range and additional services. They are running a widespread advertising campaign with generous rewards for customers to switch to them. Many of the company’s customers have announced that they are changing to the rival.
The Chief Executive Officer has stated that changes need to be made to address the situation. He wants new markets to be found for the company’s products. The business needs to change direction and address the retail market as well as the existing market.
The company is accustomed to a stable business with a well-established and consistent customer base. It is uncertain whether the company will be able to adapt to changes in its business practices, and whether these changes will be temporary or permanent. The company’s culture presents a potential risk factor.
You have been working with the sales, logistics, production, and marketing teams, enabling the architecture development activity to start. An Architecture Vision, Architecture Principles, and Requirements have all been agreed. As you move forward to develop a possible Target Architecture, you have identified that some of the key stakeholders’ preferences are incompatible. The incompatibilities are focused on time-to-market, cost savings, and the need to bring out a fully featured range of products, but there are additional factors.
Refer to the scenario.
How should you address the incompatibilities between key stakeholder preferences?
Based on the TOGAF standard, which of the following is the best answer?
Scenario
Please read this scenario prior to answering the Question
You are serving as the Lead Architect for the enterprise architecture team at a multinational company. The company has grown rapidly by acquisition and has inherited numerous supply chain processes and related IT systems. Several supply chain 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 processes and systems. The company will move to a " Just-in-time " supply chain management system so as to keep inventory costs low.
The TOGAF standard 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 related to this initiative. All assets will need to be acquired, customized, or created.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 supply chain management processes or systems.
The architecture development project has completed Phase A 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, Application and Data Architectures. Key stakeholder concerns that should be addressed by these architectures include:
1. What groups of people should be involved in supply chain management-related business processes?
2. What non-supply chain management applications will need to be integrated with the new supply chain management applications?
3. What data will need to be shared?
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?
Scenario:
Please read this scenario prior to answering the question
The ABC company is a large, global commodities trading company which has been growing rapidly through a series of acquisitions.
Each new 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 begun implementing a single Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system to consolidate information from several applications that exist across the lines of business.
The Corporate Board is concerned that the new ERP system must be able to manage and safeguard customer information in a 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 offered to clients and 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 ERP implementation team and the business unit personnel who will be involved in the migration process. The CIO has also formed a cross-functional Architecture Review Board to oversee and govern the architecture. The company has selected TOGAF 9 as the basis for its Enterprise Architecture program. The CIO has endorsed this choice with the full support of top management.
Refer to the Scenario
You are serving as the Chief Architect.
You have been asked to recommend the approach to take in the Preliminary Phase to ensure that the Corporate Board ' s concern is addressed.
Based on TOGAF 9, which of the following is the best answer?
Please read this scenario prior to answering the question
You are serving as the Lead Enterprise Architect for a life insurance, annuities, and
pensions company, which has been formed through the merger of three companies.
The company consists of three divisions with the same names and division
headquarters as their predecessors.
The lack of integration between the three divisions has increasingly caused problems
in the handling of customer and financial information. At present, each division
maintains its own applications. Despite an earlier initiative to install a common
application to manage customer, products, and claims information, each division has
different ways of defining its data elements and has customized the common
application to the point where the ability to exchange information is error-prone.
The Chief Information Officer (CIO) has formed an Enterprise Architecture
department, and one of the primary goals in its charter is to coordinate efforts
between the teams in each division. The CIO has also formed a cross-functional
Architecture Board to oversee and perform governance. The TOGAF standard is used
as the basis for the core framework of the Enterprise Architecture program. The
company has an existing team of security architects.
The company has made the decision to introduce a common web portal, contact
center software suite, and document management system. Also the company has
selected a single enterprise-wide customer relationship management (CRM)
application to consolidate information from several applications that exist across the
divisions. The application will be used by each of the divisions and accessed by third
party partners through well-defined interfaces.
The CIO is concerned that the new application must be able to manage and
safeguard 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 external partners.
Refer to the Scenario
As part of the process for initiating the Enterprise Architecture project to rollout the
new application, you are developing a set of architecture principles.
You need to recommend the best approach for this work.
Based on the TOGAF Standard, Version 9.2, which of the following is the best
answer?
