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.

You are working as an Enterprise Architect at a large company. The company runs many retail stores, as well as an online marketplace. The online marketplace allows hundreds of brands to partner with the company.
The company has a mature Enterprise Architecture (EA) practice and uses the TOGAF standard for its architecture development method. The EA practice is involved in all aspects of the business, with oversight provided by an Architecture Board with representatives from different parts of the business. The EA program is sponsored by the Chief Information Officer (CIO).
Many of the stores remain open all day and night. Each store uses a standard method to track sales and inventory. This involves sending accurate, timely sales data to a central AI-based inventory management system that can predict demand, adjust stock levels, and automate reordering. The central inventory management system is housed at the company's central data center.
The company has bought a major rival. The Chief Executive Officer believes that a merger will enable growth through combined offerings and cost savings. The decision has been taken to fully integrate the two organizations, including merging retail operations and systems. This means that duplicated systems will be replaced with one standard retail management system. Also, the company will reduce the number of applications that are used. The CIO expects significant savings will be achieved by implementing these changes across the newly merged company.
One improvement that the rival has successfully implemented is the use of hand-held devices within stores, for both customers and staff. This has increased both customer and staff employee satisfaction due to the time savings this has brought. The CIO has given the go-ahead to roll out the devices in all stores but has stated that training on how to use the hand-held devices should be brief because there are a lot of employees, many of whom are part-time.

Your role is that of the Lead Enterprise Architect at a multinational automotive corporation. The company is headquartered in Germany, and manufactures cars, trucks and buses. It has manufacturing plants across North America, South America, Europe and Asia. Each of these plants has been operating its own planning and production scheduling systems, as well as custom developed applications that drive the automated production equipment at each plant.
The company has an ongoing initiative to improve the efficiency of all of its production operations, and in particular to reduce its carbon footprint. During a recent exercise held for internal quality improvement, it was determined that a significant reduction in energy usage could be achieved by replacing the current planning and scheduling systems with a common Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system located in one central 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.
The 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 standard.
At a recent meeting, the Architecture Board approved a Request for Architecture Work sponsored by the global CIO. The request covered the initial architectural investigations and the development of a comprehensive architecture to plan the transformation.
The architecture project team has now been formed, and has been asked to develop an Architecture Vision that will achieve the desired outcomes and benefits. Some of the plant managers have expressed concern about the security and reliability of driving their planning and production scheduling from a remote centralized system. The CIO wants to know how these concerns can be addressed. During the initial project team meeting a number of alternative recommendation for how to proceed have been put forward by members of the team.

You are serving as the Lead Architect for an insurance company, which has been formed through the merger of three previously independent companies. The company now 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. The inability to share information has resulted in lost opportunities to leverage the synergies that should have been possible as a result of the merger. 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 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 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 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 partners.

You are serving as an Enterprise Architect at a large aerospace company. It designs, manufactures and sells civil and military aviation products worldwide and manufactures in multiple countries both inside and outside of the European Union. The company has grown rapidly by acquisition and has inherited numerous different procurement processes and related IT systems.
Recently, several procurement processes, within the civil aviation business, have has 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. He has committed to the CEO that the business will move to a "Just-in-time" procurement system so as to keep inventory costs low.
The TOGAF standard is used for internal Enterprise Architecture activities. At present, there are no architectural assets in the Architecture Repository 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.
This project is using an iterative approach for executing the Architecture Development Method (ADM). The architecture development project has completed the Architecture Vision 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.
Stakeholders concerns that should be addressed by these architectures include:
1. What groups of people should be involved in procurement-related business processes?
2. What applications will these groups use once the architecture development is complete?
3. What non-procurement applications will need to be integrated with the new procurement applications?
4. What are the dependences between the non-procurement and the new procurement applications?

Based on the TOGAF Standard, Version 9.2, which of the following is the best
answer?
You are an Enterprise Architect at a food production and distribution company. The primary goal of the company is to maximize profit while satisfying the needs of consumers for its products. Its customers are demanding food that is produced sustainably, safely, and transparently while reducing environmental impact.
The business is highly mechanized, and this mechanization has caused a decrease in the number of workers needed, together with a focus on agricultural engineering to improve the efficiency of its farms, its processing facilities, and the overall enterprise. As part of this, the company has established an Enterprise Architecture (EA) practice based on the TOGAF standard, using it as the method and guiding framework. The Chief Information Officer (CIO) is the sponsor of EA practice. The introduction of EA has enabled the decision-makers to have valuable insights into the different aspects of the business.
Global warming has caused a lot of poor harvests, and the company is producing fewer crops than before. This combined with an increase in costs for energy, feed, fuel, and fertilizer has led to a significant decrease in profits. The rising costs and reduced profits mean that the company is unable to take as much planned action on climate measures as it would like, such as reducing its carbon footprint. In response to the situation, the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) has decided that big changes are needed that will lead both to improved crop production and profitability. They must look to all aspects of the business. This includes looking at the mix of crops to mitigate for the change in climate.
The company will also cease to process its own crops and will sell off its processing facilities. Thus, the target market will change, and the end-products will be different and more varied. A formal request for architecture change has been approved. At this stage, there is no fixed scope, shared vision, or objectives.
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.
Scenario
Please read this scenario prior to answering the Question
You are working as a consultant to the Chief Architect at an intelligence and security organization responsible for securing government communications and information systems. These provide real-time, highly secure communication of voice, video, and message data to remote locations around the world. The agency has recently received information from intelligence sources that the current encryption protocols may no longer be secure. In response, a program is underway to upgrade the systems.
The agency has an established Enterprise Architecture (EA) capability based on the TOGAF standard. The Executive Director of the agency is the sponsor of the EA capability.
Since reliable, high-performance, and secure communications are essential to preserving national security, the Executive Director has placed more stringent requirements for the architecture of the upgraded systems. It must be able to provide assurance and verification of specific performance measures on the key services that are most crucial for system operation. Focusing on these service-level details and specific measurements, will allow stricter requirements to be enforced in service contracts. It will also provide a high degree of assurance that necessary performance is being delivered and that notifications will occur if any critical service fails to perform as required.
A portion of the program budget has been allocated to context a review of the EA. The scope of the review is to evaluate the processes, content and governance of the EA capability to ensure that the higher target performance and service levels required by the upgraded system can be achieved.
The Chief Architect has noted that the core EA artifacts that have been in use are not able to describe these new capabilities. The artifacts do not have explicit provisions for defining the in-depth measurement requirements regarding specific services required for the system. She has learned that certain services within the current system have service measurement implementations that match some of the new requirements, but they are only used in a few areas.
Recent EA efforts at another national agency have produced generalized high-performance communication system models to realize similar requirements in a critical defense system involving secure communications. It is possible that these models may be useful for the upgrade program.

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.

Your role is an Enterprise Architect for a chain of convenience stores. Many of the stores
remain open 24 hours a day. Each store has a standardized retail solution using cloud-
based point-of-sale (POS) technology to manage sales and inventory. The cloud-based
systems collect real-time data to support ordering and product selection decisions
including the tailoring of product assortment based on sales history, customer
demographics as well as the short-term weather forecast.
The company has acquired a smaller competitor, that has similar product lines and
operates in a different geographic region. The CEO believes that a merger will enable
growth through combined offerings and cost savings. This growth includes market share,
geographic expansion, as well as product diversification. The decision has been taken to
quickly integrate the two organizations, including merging retail operations and systems.
The merger will replace duplicated systems with the standardized cloud-based point-of-
sale technology. One innovation that the competitor has deployed is the use of hand-
held tablets within stores, together with a suite of store management applications, and
this is to be adopted across the whole of the merged organization. It has been observed
that this has increased employee satisfaction due to the time savings this has brought
compared to the previous fixed screens used for data entry.
The company has a mature Enterprise Architecture practice based on the TOGAF
Standard, with the CEO and CIO as joint sponsors. A project is underway to manage the
merger of the operations and systems.
The CIO anticipates significant cost savings will be made by moving to the standardized
retail solution across the merged organization. The CIO has also stated that the staff
training for the hand-held tablets should be kept to a minimum due to the large number

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 opal 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?
Scenario:
Please read this scenario prior to answering the Question
You are serving as the Lead Enterprise Architect at a major supplier in the automotive industry. The company is headquartered in Cleveland, Ohio with manufacturing plants across the United States, Brazil, Germany, Japan and South Korea. Each of these plants has been operating its own planning and production scheduling systems, as well as custom developed applications that drive the automated production equipment at each plant.
The company 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 planning 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 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 Board approved a Request for Architecture Work sponsored by the Chief Engineer of Global Manufacturing Operations. The request covered the initial architectural investigations and the development of a comprehensive architecture to plan the transformation.
The Common ERP Deployment architecture project team has now been formed, and the project team has been asked to develop an Architecture Vision that will achieve the desired outcomes and benefits. Some of the plant managers have expressed concern about the security and reliability of diving their planning and production scheduling from a remote centralized system. The Chief Engineer wants to know how these concerns can be addressed.
Refer to the Scenario
During the initial meeting of the Common ERP Deployment architecture project team, a number of alternative recommendations for how to proceed are put forward by members of the team.
You have been asked to select the most appropriate recommendation to ensure that the team evaluates different approaches to the problem and clarifies the requirements for the architecture.
Based on TOGAF 9, which of the following is the best answer?
Which of the following best describes the purpose of an Architecture Definition Document?

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

What does the TOGAF standard provide to guide architectural activity within the enterprise in terms of structures, roles, responsibilities, and processes?
You are working as an Enterprise Architect at a technology company. The company has multiple subsidiary companies, engaged in mobile, online shopping, cloud computing services, and a social media platform. The company has grown rapidly and claims to be adding 20 million new users a month.
The company has an established Enterprise Architecture (EA) program based on the TOGAF standard, sponsored jointly by the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Chief Information Officer (CIO). In your role as an Enterprise Architect within the EA team, you work closely with the business stakeholders in the company as well as the sponsors.
The senior leadership within the company is worried about the ability of the company to address the challenges of climate change and the opportunities around artificial intelligence. They are concerned that the business will not be sustainable without making significant changes. Most senior leaders feel that the operations must become more efficient, and the organization needs to change in order to achieve its future goals.
The CEO has decided that reorganizing its subsidiaries around artificial intelligence and machine learning will improve the way the company creates and delivers value. The sponsors have approved an EA project for the reorganization. The EA team has created a strategic architecture with the CEO and CIO. It includes an Architecture Vision and high-level definitions of the domain architectures. This sets out an ambitious plan over a three-year period and covers three distinct transformations to implement the reorganization.
The sponsors have read reports that up to 70% of companies are failing at digital and artificial intelligence transformation. They have made it clear that prior to the approval of the detailed Implementation and Migration Plan, the EA team needs to assess and mitigate the risks associated with the reorganization. They want assurance that the reorganization will succeed and deliver the promised increases in value for the business.
You have been asked by the EA team leader to recommend the approach to address the request from the sponsors.
Scenario

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?
In which phase of the ADM cycle do building blocks become implementation-specific?

Scenario
Please read this scenario prior to answering the Question
You are serving as the Lead Architect for a chain of convenience stores. The stores operate 24 hours a day and 7 days a week and use cloud-based point-of-sale (POS) technology to manage their sales and inventory. Cloud-based POS systems store all user data, including sales and inventory in a remote server.
The cloud-based systems collect real-time data to support ordering and product selection decisions including the tailoring of product assortment based on sales history, customer demographics as well as the next day's weather forecast. In many cases, several stores are located in neighboring areas. This strategy makes distribution to each store cheaper, as well as making multiple deliveries per day possible. The stores also act as self-service delivery locations for a large online retailer which further increases the number of potential customers entering the stores.
An Enterprise Architecture practice exists within the company, with the CEO and CIO as joint sponsors. They have decided to adopt TOGAF standard within the practice and the first project is to restructure the Enterprise Architecture so that it can better support the existing environment and accommodate future changes of strategy within the company.
The CIO has stated that the following issues need to be addressed in the restructuring:
They need to address problems with data quality and inconsistent data in order to support better decision making and analysis.
The architecture should focus on the needs of the business, not technology
To remain competitive, new products and promotions must undergo market trials and if these are successful, deployed across the retail chain. Information systems must be able to manage changes and updates without undue delays.
