Scenario

Please read this scenario prior to answering the Question

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?

Refer to the Scenario

[Note: You may need to refer to the Architectural Artifacts chapter, section 31.6 (located in Part IV) within 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 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 Enterprise 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 before deployment across the retail chain. Information systems must be able to manage changes and updates without undue delays.

[Note: You should assume that the company has adopted the example set of principles that are listed and defined in TOGAF standard, Architecture Principles chapter. You may need to refer to the Architecture Principles chapter, section 20.6 (located in Part III) within the reference text in order to answer this question.]

You have been asked to identify the most relevant architecture principles for the current situation.

Based on the TOGAF standard, which of the following is the best answer? [Note: The ordering of the principles listed in each answer is not significant.]

Which of the following best describes the Reference Library within the Architecture Repository?

Your role is that of an Enterprise Architect at an multinational company. The company

designs, manufactures and sells products worldwide. It has grown rapidly by

acquisition and has inherited numerous different business processes and related IT

systems. This has led in many instances to a duplication of resources.

The Chief Operating Officer (COO) has made the decision to consolidate and reduce

redundant business processes and IT systems in the sales operations. She has

committed to the CEO that the business will migrate to a set of standardized solutions

that will reduce costs and improve efficiency.

The Enterprise Architecture practice at the company has been assigned to manage

the project. 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 CIO, who is the project sponsor, has identified the need for a set of

commercial off the shelf package applications as candidates for the target. She has

also stated that she is not concerned about preserving the existing business

processes or IT systems within the sales operations.

Your team leader has asked you to assist with developing a response to the following

questions:

Which groups of users will use the different applications and IT systems?

How many licenses and type of licenses are needed for the packaged applications?

What level of support is needed for the users?

Where should the support center(s) be located?

What new capabilities will be required to support this business change?

How much will the migration cost?

This project is using an iterative approach for executing the TOGAF Architecture

Development Method. The architecture development project has completed the

Architecture Vision Phase. A set of packaged applications has been identified and is

being considered, the next iteration will include development of the Business and

Application Target Architectures.
