OGEA-102 Questions and Answers

Question # 6

Please read this scenario prior to answering the question

You are the Chief Enterprise Architect at a large food service company specializing in sales to trade and

wholesale, for example, restaurants and other food retailers.

One of your company's competitors has launched a revolutionary product range and is running a very

aggressive marketing campaign. Your company's resellers are successively announcing that they are not

interested in your company's products and will sell your competitor's.

The CEO has stated there must be significant change to address the situation. He has made it clear that

new markets must be found for the company's products, and that the business needs to pivot, and address the retail market as well as the existing wholesale market.

A consideration is the company's ability and willingness to change its business model, and if it is a temporary or permanent change. An additional risk factor is one of culture. The company has been used to a stable business with a reasonably well known and settled client base - all with its own local understandings and practices.

The CEO is the sponsor of the EA program within the company. You have been engaged with the sales,

logistics, production, and marketing teams, enabling the architecture activity to start. An Architecture Vision, Architecture Principles, and Requirements have all been agreed. As you move forward to develop a possible Target Architecture you have identified that some of the key stakeholders' preferences are incompatible. The incompatibilities are focused primarily on time-to-market, cost savings, and the need to bring out a fully featured product range, but there are additional factors.

Refer to the scenario

You have been asked how you will address the incompatibilities between key stakeholder preferences.

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

A.

You would seek to understand value preferences and priorities of the stakeholders. You would

develop alternative Target Architectures, highlighting the gaps between current state and the

alternatives. You would consider combining features from one or more alternatives in collaboration

with the stakeholders. A formal stakeholder review should then be held to decide which alternative is

fit for purpose and should be mo

B.

You recommend that since the CEO has stated that the company must pivot, it is better to

compromise on a full product range rather than time-to-market. You would develop just enough of the

Target Architecture to demonstrate fitness of the proposed approach. You would limit the description

to just where there is a gap between the current baseline. You would seek approval by the

stakeholders to move forward with develo

C.

You would use the Architecture Vision, Principles, and Requirements to define a set of criteria for

alternatives and create a set of architecture views to illustrate the impact of the alternative Target

Architectures. You would identify the impact on planned projects. You would understand the strengths

and weaknesses of the alternatives. You would conduct a formal stakeholder review to decide which

alternative to mov

D.

You would review the Stakeholder Map and ensure that you have addressed and represented the

concerns of all department heads. You will involve them in resolving the incompatibilities. The

Communications Plan should include a report that summarizes the key features of the architecture

with and how incompatibilities were resolved to reflects the stakeholders' requirements. You will

check with each key stakeholder they

Question # 7

Scenario:

You are working as an Enterprise Architect within an Enterprise Architecture (EA) team at an electric vehicle manufacturer. The company produces electric cars and battery systems. The goal of the company is to build the best technology and software platform for electric vehicles.

The company has decided to introduce a major change to its vehicle design over a five-year period. This will be a cross-functional effort between hardware and software teams, delivering significant new features in the vehicles they manufacture. It is planned to be developed in phases.

An architecture to support strategy has been completed with a roadmap for a set of projects.

The EA team has inherited the architecture for the hardware and software automotive platform used by current vehicles, some of which can be carried over to the new vehicle design. The EA team has started to define which parts of the architecture to carry forward.

The presentation and access to different variations of data that the company plans to offer through its vehicles creates an architecture challenge. The application portfolio and supportinginfrastructure must connect with multiple cloud services and data repositories in different countries to be able to handle large-scale data.

Enough of the Business Architecture has been defined, so that work can commence on the Information Systems and Technology Architectures. These architectures need to be defined to support the primary business services that the company plans to provide. These services will manage and process the data created by vehicles, paving the way for self-driving vehicles in the future.

The company uses the TOGAF Standard as the basis for its Enterprise Architecture framework.

The EA team reports to the Chief Technical Officer (CTO), who is the sponsor of the EA program.

The CTO requires that the EA team follow the purpose-based EA Capability model as described in:

The TOGAF Series Guide: A Practitioners’ Approach to Developing Enterprise Architecture Following the TOGAF® ADM.

Refer to the scenario:

You have been asked how to decide and organize the work to deliver the requested architectures.

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

A.

You commence an iteration of ADM Phase A, identifying the stakeholders and revising the Architecture Vision. You perform a Stakeholder Analysis and update the Stakeholder Map created for the strategic architecture so it reflects the stakeholders who are now the most important to the projects that are to be developed. You then request the CTO to make some choices about the Architecture Roadmap and update the Implementation and Migration Plan

B.

You research leading data companies, using your findings to help in developing high-level Target Data, Application, and Technology Architectures. You review the Architecture Vision to determine the level of detail, time, and scope of the ADM cycle phases required for architecture development for the project. You identify and estimate the cost of the main work packages. You then create an Architecture Roadmap and request the Architecture Boa

C.

You look to the superior architecture to help plan your approach. You identify projects, dependencies, and synergies, then decide the order for starting the projects. You then develop high-level architecture descriptions. For each project, you determine how much work is needed, identify reference architectures, and candidate building blocks. You identify the resource needs taking into account cost and value. You document the different optio

D.

You look outside the company to study how other companies organize their data models and application portfolios. You request just enough architecture description for the Application, Data, and Technology Architectures to identify different options. For each project, this includesidentifying architecture and solution building blocks. You then identify solution providers and perform a readiness assessment on the new approaches.

Question # 8

Please read this scenario prior to answering the question

You are employed as an Enterprise Architect working at a vehicle manufacturing

company. The company specializes in buses and coaches. You are part of an

Enterprise Architecture (EA) team that has responsibilities across multiple divisions of

the company. EA provides the company with a comprehensive framework to develop

and manage their manufacturing infrastructure, processes for component production,

and design and testing systems.

The company has a corporate strategy that focuses on switching to electric power for

its vehicles. It has invested heavily in a new standardized design, production efforts,

and major components to use across all its product range. The company has multiple

manufacturing plants in North America, Europe, and in Asia.

Customer demand has caused a backlog of orders because many customers want to

have more environmentally friendly public transportation. There are not enough

electronic components available, which is making it hard to produce products and

meet customer demand. To address this issue, the company has started making the

battery packs themselves and has hired new suppliers.

The EA team is working on a project to improve the process and systems to design,

produce, and test the battery pack. As part of putting the new battery pack into

production, changes to the assembly processes need to be made. A trial has been

completed at a single location. The Chief Engineer, sponsor of the project, and the

Architecture Board have approved the plan to roll out these changes to all plants.

Preliminary Architecture Contracts are being developed to detail the work needed to

put in place the new processes for each location. The EA team leader has called a

meeting to discuss the contracts. It is emphasized that the Architecture Contract will

serve as the key connection between architecture and implementation organizations.

The company mixes internal teams with a few third-party contractors at the locations.

The Chief Engineer is worried that the implementation and deployment will not be

consistent and of satisfactory quality.

The company has an established EA practice. It uses the TOGAF standard as the

foundation for its work including the internal EA framework. Additionally, the company

uses various management frameworks such as business planning, project

management, and operations management.

Refer to the scenario

The EA team leader asks you how you would address the Chief Engineer's concern.

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

A.

The contracts must be checked to ensure they have flexibility. For changes

undertaken by internal teams, a memorandum of understanding between the

Architecture Board and the implementation organization is needed. If a

contract is issued to a contractor, it must be a fully enforceable legal contract. If

a deviation from the Architecture Contract is found, the Architecture Board

must grant a dispensation to allow

B.

The contracts must be checked to ensure they can be used to direct and

control the implementation teams. For contracts issued to third-party

contractors, they must be enforceable legal contracts. For internal

development teams, a memorandum of understanding with the Architecture

Board is needed. The Architecture Board must review all deviations from the

Architecture Contract and decide whether to grant a dispen

C.

The contracts must specify goals, measures, acceptance terms, and risks.

Third-party contracts must be legally enforceable. It is advisable to establish a

schedule of compliance reviews at key points in the implementation process.

The Architecture Board must review all deviations from the Architecture

Contract and consider whether to grant a dispensation to allow the process to

be customized for local needs. En

D.

The contracts must be used to manage the architecture governance processes

across the locations. Monitoring tools must be put in place to assess the

performance of each completed battery pack at each location. If a deviation

from the contract is needed, the Architecture Board should allow the

Architecture Contract to be modified for the location. In such cases they should

issue a new Request for Architecture Wo
