Scenario

Please read this scenario prior to answering the question

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?

Options:

You recommend that a comprehensive evaluation of key team leader skills be made using the TOGAF Architecture Skills Framework. Based on the evaluations, you will recommend the necessary staff changes. This will ensure that the team leaders have the necessary skills and experience for the architecture tasks within the agency. The role and skill categories defined in the TOGAF Architecture Skills Framework should then be shared with the depar

You recommend that an architecture maturity assessment should be conducted. This will identify the practices on which the agency should focus to see the greatest improvement and ensure that the basic enterprise architecture process is documented. As part of the assessment, all of the team leaders should be interviewed and their qualifications assessed. In order to rectify areas of low proficiency, they are expected to attend additional EA t

You recommend that you work with the EA steering team to adapt the TOGAF Architecture Skills Framework for use within the architecture practice at the agency. The categories of architecture roles, the required skills for each role and the desired level of proficiency for each role and skill will be defined by this framework. Each team member, or prospective team member, can then be evaluated for suitability against these roles and skills. S

You recommend that to address the issues identified in the review, the experienced team leaders should mentor the junior team members. At the same time additional training should be provided. Since it is now known that some models are improperly defined and may have caused cascading errors in other parts of the architecture, you recommend an iteration of the Migration Planning phase occur, so as to develop a coordinated transition to a new

Scenario

Please read this scenario prior to answering the Question

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?

Options:

In the next iteration of Architecture development, you would describe the Baseline Business Architecture with a Value Chain diagram and a Baseline Business Process catalog. You would describe the Baseline Data Architecture with a Data diagram. You would describe the Baseline Application Architecture with an Environment and Location diagram.

In the next iteration of Architecture development, you would describe the Target Business Architecture with an Organization/Actor catalog, a Business Service/Function catalog and Data Lifecycle diagrams. You would describe the Target Application Architecture with an Application Interaction matrix and Application Communications diagrams.

You would describe the Baseline Business Architecture with a Business Service/Function catalog, an Organization/Actor catalog and a Data Entity/Business Function matrix. You would describe the Baseline Data Architecture using a Data Entity/Data Component catalog. You would describe the Baseline Application Architecture with an Application/Function matrix.

You would describe the Target Business Architecture with a Business Service/Function catalog, and a Business Interaction matrix. You would describe the Target Data Architecture with a Data Entity/Business Function matrix and an Application/Data matrix. You would describe the Target Application Architecture with Application Communication diagrams and an Application Interaction matrix.

Answer

Explanation

Analysis of Scenario and TOGAF Guidance

Given the scenario, the main objective is to create a consolidated and standardized architecture for sales operations using the TOGAF Architecture Development Method (ADM). The COO aims to reduce redundancy and enhance efficiency, while the CIO has specified a preference for off-the-shelf applications rather than preserving the current, potentially redundant systems.

The ADM process is currently transitioning from the Architecture Vision phase to the Business and Application Target Architectures in the next iteration. The identified areas of focus include defining the Target Business and Application Architectures, which require specific catalogs, matrices, and diagrams for effective representation.

Requirement: Selection of Artifacts

According to TOGAF 9.2, artifacts like catalogs, matrices, and diagrams are essential in representing different aspects of the architecture. These are detailed in Section 31.6 (Architectural Artifacts chapter, Part IV) of the TOGAF Standard, which outlines the purpose of each artifact type within the ADM phases.

Rationale for Option B

Target Business Architecture Artifacts:

Organization/Actor Catalog : This catalog is used to capture all actors (people, organizations, etc.) involved in the business operations. It is essential for mapping the current and target structure and aligns with the goal of consolidating operations to reduce redundancy.

Business Service/Function Catalog : This catalog lists all the business services and functions, helping identify which services/functions will remain, be removed, or be merged. This aligns with the objective of standardizing and streamlining processes.

Capability/Organization Matrix : This matrix maps business capabilities to organizational units, which helps define what new capabilities may be required to support the business change as requested by the COO.

Target Application Architecture Artifacts:

Application Portfolio Catalog : This catalog identifies and details applications involved in the target architecture, including the new off-the-shelf package applications. It is crucial for cataloging all software solutions that will be part of the consolidated system.

Application/Function Matrix : This matrix links applications to the business functions they support, which is instrumental in assessing how the new applications align with the business needs.

Alignment with TOGAF ADM Guidelines

ADM Phase B (Business Architecture) : Catalogs like the Organization/Actor catalog and Business Service/Function catalog are appropriate to capture actors and their interactions with services. Additionally, matrices like the Capability/Organization matrix align with TOGAF guidelines to document necessary business capabilities and organizational responsibilities.

ADM Phase C (Application Architecture) : For the Application Architecture, an Application Portfolio catalog supports cataloging applications as the organization considers packaged solutions. The Application/Function matrix is useful for mapping how these applications fulfill specific business functions, aligning with TOGAF guidance for this phase.

Why Options A, C, and D are Less Suitable

Option A : While it includes the Business Service/Function catalog, it does not provide sufficient emphasis on organizational structure or capabilities (e.g., Capability/Organization matrix), both of which are crucial for understanding the roles and responsibilities in the target business structure.

Option C : This option suggests a Business Capability Map and Application/Organization matrix , which are less directly relevant to the immediate needs of cataloging applications and mapping functions to applications as specified by the CIO’s intent to move to standardized packages.

Option D : The Application Migration diagram and Application and User Location diagram are more appropriate for later stages of the architecture, focusing on implementation rather than the Business and Application Architectures, making them premature for this stage.

TOGAF References Supporting Option B

31.6.1 Catalogs (Business Architecture and Application Architecture sections): Organization/Actor catalog, Business Service/Function catalog, and Application Portfolio catalog are standard catalogs for Business and Application Architectures.

31.6.2 Matrices (Business Architecture and Application Architecture sections): Capability/Organization matrix and Application/Function matrix are recommended matrices for defining relationships between capabilities, organizations, and functions.

Thus, Option B is the most suitable answer as it aligns with the requirements in the scenario and adheres to TOGAF’s recommended artifacts for the Business and Application Architectures in these ADM phases.
