Please read this scenario prior to answering the question You are the Lead Enterprise Architect at a major agribusiness company. The company's main annual 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 chemical controls. In addition, changes in climate favor the propagation and growth of the parasite. As a result, the parasite cannot realistically be exterminated, and it has become pandemic, with lentil yields falling globally. The CEO appreciates the seriousness of the situation and has set out a change in direction that 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 process third-party lentils. Thus, the target market will change, and the end-products will be different and more varied. This is a major decision and the CEO has stated a desire to repurpose rather than replace so as to manage the risks and limit the costs. The company has a mature Enterprise Architecture practice based in its headquarters and uses the TOGAF standard as the method and guiding framework. The practice has an established Architecture Capability, and uses iteration for architecture development. The CIO is the sponsor of the activity. The CIO has assigned the Enterprise Architecture team to this activity. At this stage there is no shared vision, or requirements. 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. Based on the TOGAF standard which of the following is the best answer?

Consider the following ADM phases objectives.

Objective

1- Determine whether an incremental approach is required, and if so identify Transition Architectures that will deliver continuous business value

2- Generate the initial complete version of the Architecture Roadmap, based upon the gap analysis and candidate Architecture Roadmap components from Phases B, C, and D

3- Finalize the Architecture Roadmap and the supporting Implementation and Migration Plan

4- Ensure that the business value and cost of work packages and Transition Architectures is understood by key stakeholders

Which phase does each objective match?

Suggested answer: B

Explanation:

According to the TOGAF standard, the objectives of each ADM phase are as follows1:

* Phase E: Opportunities and Solutions

o Determine whether an incremental approach is required, and if so identify Transition Architectures that will deliver continuous business value

o Identify and group major work packages within the Architecture Roadmap

o Identify and group major implementation projects to realize the Architecture Roadmap

o Identify dependencies between increments and projects

o Estimate cost, benefit, and risk at a high level for each increment and project

o Conduct initial prioritization and sequencing of the Architecture Roadmap and projects

* Phase F: Migration Planning

o Generate the initial complete version of the Architecture Roadmap, based upon the gap analysis and candidate Architecture Roadmap components from Phases B, C, and D

o Confirm the Transition Architectures with relevant stakeholders

o Create the Implementation and Migration Plan, including Transition Architectures, work packages, projects, and other activities

o Confirm and agree the Architecture Roadmap and Implementation and Migration Plan with relevant stakeholders

* Phase G: Implementation Governance

o Finalize the Architecture Roadmap and the supporting Implementation and Migration Plan

o Ensure conformance with the Target Architecture by implementation projects

o Perform appropriate Architecture Governance functions for the solution and any implementation-driven architecture Change Requests

o Ensure that the architecture lifecycle is maintained

o Ensure that the Architecture Governance Framework is executed

* Phase H: Architecture Change Management

o Ensure that the business value and cost of work packages and Transition Architectures is understood by key stakeholders

o Manage risks and issues related to the Architecture Roadmap and Implementation and Migration Plan

o Monitor the implementation projects and Transition Architectures

o Manage changes to the architecture baseline

o Manage changes to the Architecture Capability

Therefore, the correct matching of the objectives and the phases is:

* 1G: Determine whether an incremental approach is required, and if so identify Transition Architectures that will deliver continuous business value

* 2E: Generate the initial complete version of the Architecture Roadmap, based upon the gap analysis and candidate Architecture Roadmap components from Phases B, C, and D

* 3F: Finalize the Architecture Roadmap and the supporting Implementation and Migration Plan

* 4F: Ensure that the business value and cost of work packages and Transition Architectures is understood by key stakeholders
