Question 1

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?

A : The team should develop Baseline and Target Architectures for each of the manufacturing plants, ensuring that the views corresponding to selected viewpoints address key concerns of the stakeholders. A consolidated gap analysis between the architectures will then be used to validate the approach, and determine the capability increments needed to achieve the target state

B : The team should exercise due diligence and carefully research vendor literature and conduct a series of briefings with vendors that are on the current approved supplier list. Based on the findings from the research, the team should define a preliminary Architecture Vision. The team should then use that model to build consensus among the key stakeholders

C : The team should use stakeholder analysis to understand who has concerns about the initiative. The team should then hold a series of interviews at each of the manufacturing plants using the business scenario technique. This will then enable them to identify and document the key high-level stakeholder requirements for the architecture

D : The team should conduct a pilot project that will enable vendors on the short list to demonstrate potential solutions that will address the concerns of the stakeholders. Based on the findings of that pilot project, a complete set of retirements will be developed that will drive the evolution of the architecture

Answer: C

Question 2

Scenario:

Please read this scenario prior to answering the question

Your role is consultant to the Lead Architect within a company that manufactures a variety of small

electromechanical devices. The company is organized as independent operational divisions.

The company has a mature Enterprise Architecture practice and uses TOGAF standard 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.

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.

The implementation process is estimated to take four years. Because of the risks posed by the complexity of

the current environment, a phased approach is needed to implement the target architectures. The

implementation and Migration Plan v0 1, the draft Architecture Roadmap, and the Capability Assessment

deliverables are now complete.

Refer to the Scenario

You have been asked to recommend the next steps to prepare the final Implementation and Migration Plan.

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

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

B : You would assess how the plan impacts the other frameworks in use in the organization. The plan should be coordinated with the business planning, portfolio/project management and operations management frameworks. You would then assign a business value to each project, considering available resources and priorities for the projects. Finally, you would generate the Implementation and Migration Plan.

C : You would conduct a series of Compliance Assessments to ensure that the implementation team is implementing the architecture 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.

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

Answer: B

Question 3

RIG Networks, a global network supplier is implementing a massive replacement of its supply chain to reduce

production cost of their new LTE (Long Term Evolution) gateways. As part of this renovation process the CIO

decided to replace their ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) system using a greenfield approach (where the

legacy ERP system will be decommissioned). The CIO engaged a team of TOGAF 9 certified consultants to

design the solution, he then identified the suppliers and asked you as Chief Architect to supervise the definition

of the Architecture Design and Development Contract.

Question 4

An international Insurance company has grown with little consideration for rationalization and consolidation.

There is no coordination between business unit and every one have managed its own applications. The CIO

decided to establish an Enterprise Architecture program within the enterprise to enable the company to expand

to other markets in the next two years. The company has not any Enterprise Architecture Capability in place

and the he CIO has set up an Architecture Board and called its first meeting.

Refer to the scenario above

As Lead Architect you will establish a TOGAF 9 Enterprise Architecture program. Identify the best way to do

this among the answers below.

Choose one of the following answers

A : You tailor TOGAF 9 with the help of the Architecture Board to integrate it with the legacy procedures established by the PMO. You also examine the relationship of TOGAF with other processes and frameworks for governance, systems development and operations management. You then define the footprint of the enterprise architecture

B : As Lead Architect you create a Request for Architecture Work to allocate resources to work on the Architecture Vision. Based on the outcome of the Business Scenario technique you apply, you create the Common Systems Architecture to guide the choice of Solutions Building Blocks. These will be then used for integrating the systems across business units

C : You clarify the agreement on key business drivers and the scope of the enterprise architecture. You then clarify the requirements for architecture work. You define the architecture principles together with the help of the Architecture Board in order to lead the architecture work. You consider how to tailor TOGAF 9 for this enterprise

D : You conduct an Architecture Maturity Assessment. You then use the TOGAF ADM to state the requirements for the integration of a new company information management system into the organization. You then list a set of business goals together with the Architecture Board that will be a reference to the enterprise architecture program

Answer: C

Question 5

Scenario

Please read this scenario prior to answering the question

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 had been intended when the company was formed. 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.

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 migration teams in each division. 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 as the core framework 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, which of the following is the best answer?

A : 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

B : You start by clarifying the intent that the Board has for raising these concerns. This enables you to understand the implications of the concerns 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

C : 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.

D : 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
