The company has fourmanufacturing facilities, one in North America, two in Europe, and one in Asia.A challenge that the company is facing is to scale up the number of vehicles coming off theproduction line to meet customer demand, while maintaining quality. There are significant supplychain shortages for electronic components, which are impacting production. In response to this thecompany has taken on new suppliers and has also taken design and production of the battery packin-house.The company has a mature Enterprise Architecture practice. The TOGAF standard is used fordeveloping the process and systems used to design, manufacture, and test the battery pack. The ChiefInformation Officer and the Chief Operating Officer co-sponsor the Enterprise Architecture program.As part of putting the new battery pack into production, adjustments to the assembly processes needto be made. A pilot project has been completed at a single location. The Chief Engineer, sponsor ofthe activity, and the Architecture Board have approved the plan for implementation and migration ateach plant.Draft Architecture Contracts have been developed that detail the work needed to implement anddeploy the new processes for each location. The company mixes internal teams with a few thirdpartycontractors at the locations. The Chief Engineer has expressed concern that the deploymentwill not be consistent and of acceptable quality.Refer to the scenarioThe Lead Enterprise Architect has asked you to review the draft Architecture Contracts andrecommend the best approach to address the Chief Engineer's concern.Based on the TOGAF Standard, which of the following is the best answer?

A. For changes requested by an internal team, you recommend a memorandum of understandingbetween the Architecture Board and the implementation organization.

Please read this scenario prior to answering the questionYou are the Chief Enterprise Architect at a large food service company specializing in sales to tradeandwholesale, for example, restaurants and other food retailers.One of your company's competitors has launched a revolutionary product range and is running a veryaggressive marketing campaign. Your company's resellers are successively announcing that they arenotinterested in your company's products and will sell your competitor's.The CEO has stated there must be significant change to address the situation. He has made it clearthatnew markets must be found for the company's products, and that the business needs to pivot, andaddress the retail market as well as the existing wholesale market.A consideration is the company's ability and willingness to change its business model, and if it is atemporary or permanent change. An additional risk factor is one of culture. The company has beenused to a stable business with a reasonably well known and settled client base - all with its own localunderstandings and practices.The CEO is the sponsor of the EA program within the company. You have been engaged with thesales,logistics, production, and marketing teams, enabling the architecture activity to start. AnArchitecture Vision, Architecture Principles, and Requirements have all been agreed. As you moveforward to develop a possible Target Architecture you have identified that some of the keystakeholders' preferences are incompatible. The incompatibilities are focused primarily on time-tomarket,cost savings, and the need to bring out a fully featured product range, but there areadditional factors.Refer to the scenarioYou have been asked how you will address the incompatibilities between key stakeholderpreferences.Based on the TOGAF standard which of the following is the best answer?

A. You would seek to understand value preferences and priorities of the stakeholders. You woulddevelop alternative Target Architectures, highlighting the gaps between current state and thealternatives. You would consider combining features from one or more alternatives in collaborationwith the stakeholders. A formal stakeholder review should then be held to decide which alternativeis fit for purpose and should be moved forward with. You will then secure the funding required.
B. You recommend that since the CEO has stated that the company must pivot, it is better tocompromise on a full product range rather than time-to-market. You would develop just enough ofthe Target Architecture to demonstrate fitness of the proposed approach. You would limit the descriptionto just where there is a gap between the current baseline. You would seek approval by thestakeholders to move forward with developing the Target Architecture in detail.
C. You would use the Architecture Vision, Principles, and Requirements to define a set of criteria foralternatives and create a set of architecture views to illustrate the impact of the alternative TargetArchitectures. You would identify the impact on planned projects. You would understand thestrengths and weaknesses of the alternatives. You would conduct a formal stakeholder review to decide whichalternative to move forward with. You will determine the funding required.
D. You would review the Stakeholder Map and ensure that you have addressed and represented theconcerns of all department heads. You will involve them in resolving the incompatibilities. TheCommunications Plan should include a report that summarizes the key features of the architecturewith and how incompatibilities were resolved to reflects the stakeholders' requirements. You willcheck with each key stakeholder they are satisfied with how the incompatibilities have beenresolved.

Please read this scenario prior to answering the questionYour role is that of a consultant to the Lead Enterprise Architect to an international supplier ofengineering services and automated manufacturing systems. It has three manufacturing plantswhere it assembles both standard and customized products for industrial productionautomation. Each of these plants has been operating its own planning and productionscheduling systems, as well as applications and control systems that drive the automatedproduction line.The Enterprise Architecture department has been operating for several years and has mature,well-developed architecture governance and development processes that are based on theTOGAF Standard. The CIO sponsors the Enterprise Architecture.During a recent management meeting, a senior Vice-President highlighted an interview wherea competitor company's CIO is reported as saying that their production efficiency had beenimproved by replacing multiple planning and scheduling systems with a common EnterpriseResource Planning (ERP) system located in a central data center. Some discussion followed,with the CIO responding that the situations are not comparable, and the current architecture isalready optimized.In response, the Architecture Board approved a Request for Architecture Work covering theinvestigations to determine if such an architecture transformation would lead to improvementsin efficiency. You have been assigned to support the architecture team working on this project.A well-known concern of the plant managers is about the security and reliability of driving theirplanning and production scheduling from a remote centralized system. Any chosen systemwould also need to support the current supply chain network consisting of local partners ateach of the plants.Refer to the scenarioYou have been asked to explain how you will initiate the architecture project.Based on the TOGAF Standard, which of the following is the best answer?

A. You would research vendor literature and conduct a series of briefings with vendorsthat are on the current approved supplier list. Based on the findings from theresearch, you would define a preliminary Architecture Vision including summaryviews, high-level requirements, and high-level definitions of the baseline and targetenvironments from a business, information systems, and technology perspective. Youwould then use that to build consensus among the key stakeholders.
B. You would conduct a pilot project that will enable vendors to demonstrate potentialoff-the-shelf solutions that address the concerns of the stakeholders. Running a pilotproject will save time and money later in the process. Based on the findings of thatpilot project, a complete set of requirements can then be developed that will drive theevolution of the architecture. Once the requirements are completed, a formalstakeholder review should be held, and permission sought to proceed to develop thetarget architecture
C. You would hold a series of interviews at each of the manufacturing plants using thebusiness scenarios technique. This will allow you to understand the systems andintegrations with local partners. You would use stakeholder analysis to identify keyplayers in the engagement, and to understand their concerns. You will then identifyand document the key high-level stakeholder requirements for the architecture. Youwill then generate high level definitions of the baseline and target architectures.
D. You would develop baseline and target Architectures for each of the manufacturingplants, ensuring that the views corresponding to selected viewpoints address keyconcerns of the stakeholders. A business case, together with performance metricsand measures should be defined to ensure the architecture meets the businessneeds. A consolidated gap analysis between the architectures will then validate theapproach and determine the capability increments needed to achieve the target state.

Please read this scenario prior to answering the questionYou are the Lead Enterprise Architect at a major agribusiness company. The company's mainannual harvest is lentils, a highly valued food grown worldwide. The lentil parasite, broomrape,has been an increasing concern for many years and is now becoming resistant to chemicalcontrols. In addition, changes in climate favor the propagation and growth of the parasite. As aresult, the parasite cannot realistically be exterminated, and it has become pandemic, with lentilyields falling globally.The CEO appreciates the seriousness of the situation and has set out a change in directionthat is effectively a new business for the company. There are opportunities for new products,and new markets. The company will use the fields for another harvest and will cease to processthird-party lentils. Thus, the target market will change, and the end-products will be differentand more varied. This is a major decision and the CEO has stated a desire to repurpose ratherthan replace so as to manage the risks and limit the costs.The company has a mature Enterprise Architecture practice based in its headquarters and usesthe TOGAF standard as the method and guiding framework. The practice has an establishedArchitecture Capability, and uses iteration for architecture development. The CIO is the sponsorof the activity.The CIO has assigned the Enterprise Architecture team to this activity.

Please read this scenario prior to answering the questionYour role is consultant to the Lead Architect within a multinational company that manufactureselectronic components. The company has several manufacturing divisions located worldwide and acomplex supply chain. After a recent study, senior management have stated a concern aboutbusiness efficiency considering the company's multiple data centers and duplication of applications.The company has a mature Enterprise Architecture (EA) practice and uses the TOGAF architecturedevelopment method in its EA practice. In addition to the EA program, the company has severalmanagement frameworks in use, including business planning, project/portfolio management, andoperations management. The EA program is sponsored by the CIO.A strategic architecture has been defined to improve the ability to meet customer demand andimprove management of the supply chain. The strategic architecture includes the consolidation ofmultiple Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) applications that have been operating independently inthe divisions' production facilities.Each division has completed the Architecture Definition documentation to meet its own specificmanufacturing requirements. The enterprise architects have defined a set of work packages thataddress the gaps identified. They have identified the value produced, effort required, anddependencies between work packages to reach a farget architecture that would integrate a new ERPenvironment into the company.Because of the risks posed by change from the current environment, the architects haverecommended that a phased approach occurs to implement the target architecture with severaltransition states. The overall implementation process is estimated to take several years.Refer to the scenarioYou have been asked what the next steps are for the migration planning.Based on the TOGAF standard which of the following is the best answer?

A. You conduct a series of Compliance Assessments to ensure that the architecture is beingimplemented according to the contract. The Compliance Assessment should verify that theimplementation team is using the proper development methodology. It should include deploymentof monitoring tools and ensure that performance targets are being met. If they are not met, then youwould identify changes to performance requirements and update those in the Implementation andMigration Plan
B. You place the Architecture Definition Document under configuration control. This will ensure thatthe architecture remains relevant and responsive to the needs of the enterprise. You would identifythe development resources to undertake the projects. You would then produce an ImplementationGovernance Model to manage the lessons learned prior to finalizing the plan. You recommend thatlessons learned be applied as changes to the architecture without review
C. You estimate the business value for each project by applying the Business Value AssessmentTechnique to prioritize the implementation projects and project increments. The assessment shouldfocus on return on investment and performance evaluation criteria that can be used to monitor theprogress of the architecture transformation. You would confirm and plan a series of TransitionArchitecture phases using an Architecture Definition Increments Table that lists the projects.
D. You assess how the Implementation and Migration plan impacts the other frameworks in use inthe organization. Minimally, you ensure that the plan is coordinated with the business planning,project/portfolio management and operations management frameworks. You would then assign abusiness value to each work package, considering available resources and strategic fit. You then usethe work packages to identify projects that will be in the Implementation and Migration Plan

Please read this scenario prior to answering the questionYou are working as the Chief Enterprise Architect within a law firm specializing in personal injurycases. Many of the firm's competitors have improved their litigation strategies, and efficiency bystreamlining their processes using Artificial Intelligence {Al).The CIO has approved a Request for Architecture Work to examine the use of Machine Learning indefining a new Al-driven litigation and finance process for the firm. This process would instruct thelawyers and analysts as to what tasks and portfolio they should work on. The key objectives are toincrease task profitability, maximize staff utilization, and increase individual profitability.The CIO has emphasized that the architecture should enable the fast implementation of continuousMachine Learning. The solution will need to be constantly measured for delivered value and bequickly iterated to success.Some of the partners have expressed concerns about letting the Al make the decisions, others aboutthe risks associated with use of it for the type of service they deliver. The CIO wants to know if theseconcerns can be addressed, and how risks will be covered by a new architecture enabling Al andMachine Learning.Refer to the scenarioYou have been asked to respond to the CIO recommending an approach that would enable thedevelopment of an architecture that addresses the concerns of the CIO and the concerns of thepartners.Based on the TOGAF standard which of the following is the best answer?

A. You recommend that a Communications Plan be created to address the key stakeholders, the mostpowerful and influential partners. This plan should include a report that summarizes the key featuresof the architecture reflecting their requirements. You will check with each key stakeholder that theirconcerns are being addressed. Risk mitigation and agility will be explicitly addressed as a componentof the architecture being developed.
B. You recommend that an analysis of the stakeholders is undertaken resulting in documenting thestakeholders and their concerns in a Stakeholder Map. The concerns and relevant views should thenbe defined for each group and recorded in the Architecture Vision document. The requirements willinclude risk mitigation through regular assessments. This will also allow a supervised agileimplementation of the continuous Machine Learning.
C. You recommend that all possible models be created for each candidate architecture that willenable the Al and Machine Learning solution. This ensures that all the necessary data and detail isaddressed. A formal review should be held with the stakeholders to verify that their concerns havebeen properly addressed by the models. Agility will be considered during Phase G ImplementationGovernance.
D. You recommend creation of a set of business models that can be applied uniformly across allarchitecture projects. The stakeholders will be trained to understand the business models to ensurethey can see that their concerns are being addressed. Risk will be addressed once the SecurityArchitecture is developed, which will happen later to avoid slowing down the agility required by theCIO

The new platform will be a cross-functional effort between hardware and software teams,with significant changes over the old platform. It is expected to be developed in several stages overthree years. The EA team has inherited the architecture for the previous generation hardware andsoftware automotive platform, some of which can be carried over to the new unified platform. TheEA team has started to define the new platform, including defining which parts of the architecture tocarry forward.Enough of the Business Architecture has been defined, so that work can commence on theInformation Systems and Technology Architectures. Those need to be defined to support the corebusiness services that the company plans to provide. The core services will feature an innovativeapproach with swarm data generated by vehicles, paving the way for autonomous driving in thefuture.The presentation and access to different variations of data that the company plans to offer throughits platform pose an architecture challenge. The application portfolio and supporting infrastructureneed to interact with various existing cloud services and dataRefer to the scenarioYou have been asked what approach should be taken to determine and organize the work to deliverthe requested architectures?Based on the TOGAF standard which of the following is the best answer?

A. You would look outside the enterprise to research data models and application portfolios ofleading big data businesses. You would develop just enough applications, data, and technologyarchitecture to identify options. For each project this should include identification of candidatearchitecture and solution building blocks. You will identify solution providers, perform a readinessassessment, and assess the viability and fitness of the solution options. You will then document thedraft Implementation and Migration plan.
B. You would refer to the end-to-end Target Architecture for guidance and direction. The firstobjective should be to identify projects, dependencies and synergies, then prioritize before initiatingthe projects. You will develop high-level architecture descriptions. For each project you wouldestimate effort size, identify reference architectures, and candidate building blocks. You will identifythe resource needs considering cost and value. You will document options, risks, and controls toenable viability analysis and trade-off with the stakeholders.
C. You will revisit ADM PhaseA. identifying the stakeholders and creating a new Architecture Vision.You will update the Stakeholder map produced for the strategic architecture so it reflects thestakeholders who are now the most relevant to the projects that are to be developed. You wouldthen ask the CTO to make some decisions about the Architecture Roadmap, and update theImplementation and Migration Plan to reflect the decisions
D. You will research leading data businesses, developing high-level Target Data, Application andTechnology Architectures. You would review the Architecture Vision in order to estimate the level ofdetail, time, and breadth of the ADM cycle phases that will be needed to develop the architecture.You will identify and cost major work packages, and then develop an Architecture Roadmap. Youwould then seek approval by the Architecture Board and initiate the project.

Please read this scenario prior to answering the questionYou are the Lead Enterprise Architect at a major agribusiness company. The company's main harvestis lentils, a highly valued food grown worldwide. The lentil parasite, broomrape, has been anincreasing concern for many years and is now becoming resistant to chemical controls. In addition,changes in climate favor the propagation and growth of the parasite. As a result, the parasite cannotrealistically be exterminated, and it has become pandemic, with lentil yields falling globally.In response to the situation, the CEO has decided that the lentil fields will be used for anotherharvest. The company will also cease to process third-party lentils and will repurpose its processingplants. Thus, the target market will change, and the end-products will be different and more varied.The company has recently established an Enterprise Architecture practice based on the TOGAFstandard as method and guiding framework. The CIO is the sponsor of the activity. A formal requestfor architecture change has been approved. At this stage there is no fixed scope, shared vision, orobjectives.Refer to the scenarioYou have been asked to propose the best approach for architecture development to realize the CEO'schange in direction for the company.Based on the TOGAF standard which of the following is the best answer?

A. You propose that this engagement define the baseline Technology Architecture first in order toassess the current infrastructure capacity and capability for the company. Then the focus should beon transition planning and incremental architecture deployment. This will identify requirements toensure that the projects are sequenced in an optimal fashion so as to realize the change.
B. You propose that the team uses the architecture definition document and focus on architecturedevelopment starting simultaneously phases B, C and D. This is because the CEO has identified theneed to change. This will ensure that the change can be defined in a structured manner and addressthe requirements needed to realize the change.
C. You propose that the team focus on architecture definition including development of businessmodels, with emphasis on defining the change parameters to support this new business strategy thatthe CEO has identified. Once understood, the team will be in the best position to identify therequirements, drivers, issues, and constraints for the change.
D. You propose that the priority is to produce a new Request for Architecture Work leading todevelopment of a new Architecture Vision. The trade-off method should be applied to identify andselect an architecture satisfying the stakeholders. For an efficient change the EA team should bealigned with the organization's planning, budgeting, operational, and change processes.

Please read this scenario prior to answering the questionYou have been appointed as senior architect working for an autonomous driving technologydevelopment company. The mission of the company is to build an industry leading unifiedtechnology and software platform to support connected cars and autonomous driving.The company uses the TOGAF Standard as the basis for its Enterprise Architecture (EA) framework.Architecture development within the company follows the purpose-based EA Capability model asdescribed in the TOGAF Series Guide: A Practitioners'Approach to Developing Enterprise ArchitectureFollowing the TOGAF® ADM.An architecture to support strategy has been completed defining a long-range Target Architecturewith a roadmap spanning five years. This has identified the need for a portfolio of projects over thenext two years. The portfolio includes development of travel assistance systems using swarm datafrom vehicles on the road.The current phase of architecture development is focused on the Business Architecture which needsto support the core travel assistance services that the company plans to provide. The core serviceswill manage and process the swarm data generated by vehicles, paving the way for autonomousdriving in the future.The presentation and access to different variations of data that the company plans to offer throughits platform poses an architecture challenge. The application portfolio needs to interact securely withvarious third-party cloud services, and V2X (Vehicle-to-Everything) service providers in manycountries to be able to manage the data at scale. The security of V2X is a key concern for thestakeholders. Regulators have stated that the user's privacy be always protected, for example, so thatthe drivers' journey cannot be tracked or reconstructed by compiling data sent or received by the car.Refer to the scenarioYou have been asked to describe the risk and security considerations you would include in thecurrent phase of the architecture development?Based on the TOGAF standard which of the following is the best answer?

A. You will focus on the relationship with the third parties required for the travel assistance systemsand define a trust framework. This will describe the relationship with each party. Digital certificatesare a key part of the framework and will be used to create trust between parties. You will monitorlegal and regulatory changes across all the countries to keep the trust framework in compliance.
B. You will perform a qualitative risk assessment for the data assets exchanged with partners. Thiswill deliver a set of priorities, high to medium to low, based on identified threats, the likelihood ofoccurrence, and the impact if it did occur. Using the priorities, you would then develop a BusinessRisk Model which will detail the risk strategy including classifications to determine what mitigation isenough.
C. You will focus on data quality as it is a key factor in risk management. You will identify the datasetsthat need to be safeguarded. For each dataset, you will assign ownership and responsibility for thequality of data needs. A security classification will be defined and applied to each dataset. Thedataset owner will then be able to authorize processes that are trusted for a certain activity on thedataset under certain circumstances.
D. You will create a security domain model so that assets with the same level can be managed underone security policy. Since data is being shared across partners, you will establish a security federationto include them. This would include contractual arrangements, and a definition of the responsibilityareas for the data exchanged, as well as security implications. You would undertake a risk assessmentdetermining risks relevant to specific data assets.
