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 is the architecture domain that describes the logical software and hardware capabilities?

Which of the following best describes capability based planning?

Which ADM phase provides architectural oversight of the implementation?

Which phase of the ADM establishes a set of Principles?

Complete the sentence. In the TOGAF Architecture Content Framework, an artifact that is a list of things is known as a _________________.

Complete the sentence. The Architecture Board is typically responsible and accountable for achieving all of the following goals except ___________

Which of the following best describes the purpose of the Architecture Roadmap?

Which of the following does the TOGAF ADM recommend for use in developing an Architecture Vision document?

Complete the sentence. In TOGAF, every architecture view has an associated ____ that describes it, at least implicitly.

Complete the sentence by selecting the applicable pair of words. According to TOGAF, a/an _____ is used to describe the ____ of a stakeholder.

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?
