Question # 4

Refer to the scenario

Please read this scenario prior to answering the question

Your role is that of Enterprise Architect for a chain of convenience stores. The chain includes over five thousand retail outlets. Each store in the chain is an independently owned and operated franchise. The stores operate 24 hours a day and 7 days a week. Many of the stores have been with the franchise for more than 10 years and still use the original IT systems deployed at that time.

The chain has a mature Enterprise Architecture practice based in its headquarters and uses the TOGAF standard as the method and guiding framework.

The CEO of the chain has stated concerns about the inefficiencies of the current systems and identified the need to change. He has defined a strategic vision that will enhance the business by providing its franchisees new services to help them compete with other retail outlets and online retailers. This strategy is part of the long-term commitment to enhance the brand image and increase revenue for the chain.

The Chief Architect engaged the services of a leading consulting firm that specializes in business strategy. An initial study has been conducted to identify the strategic changes needed to implement the CEO's vision. This recently completed with approval of a strategic architecture encompassing the entire chain, including detailed requirements and recommendations. Based on the recommendations from the study, the decision has been made for the chain to adopt a packaged suite of integrated applications that is tailored to the needs of the franchise.

The changes will help provide the chain with improved products, and more efficient operations. The stores will also act as delivery and return locations for a large online retailer which will further increase the number of potential customers.

The addition of a corporate-wide data warehouse will provide analytics that will enable the marketing group to improve its ability to target advertising and new products to specific regions.

You have been asked by the Chief Architect to propose the best approach for architecture development to realize the

CEO's vision

Based on the TOGAF Standard, Version 9.2, which of the following is the best answer?

Options:

A.

You recommend that the architecture development define the target architecture by going through the architecture definition phases (B-D). This is because the initial study identified the need to change. This will ensure that the change can be defined in a structured manner and address the requirements needed to realize the vision.

B.

You recommend that the baseline architecture be developed first in order to assess the current infrastructure capacity and capability. This is since the initial priority is to understand the problem. Then the focus should be on transition planning and architecture deployment. This will identify requirements to ensure that the projects are sequenced in an optimal fashion so as to realize the vision of the CEO.

C.

You recommend that the focus be on the architecture definition, with a specific emphasis on understanding the strategic change parameters of the business strategy. Once understood, the team will be in the best position to identify the requirements, drivers, issues, and constraints for this engagement. You would ensure that the target architecture addresses non-functional requirements so as to ensure the target architecture is robust and sec

D.

You recommend that the target architecture is defined first, followed by transition planning. This is because the vision is well understood, and the strategic architecture agreed. The target first approach will ensure that the current problems and inefficiencies of the baseline architecture are not carried forward, and that the proposed solution addresses the requirements identified in the initial study.

Scenario

Please read this scenario prior to answering the Question

You are serving as the Lead Architect for an Enterprise Architecture project team within a multinational oil and gas corporation. It is organized into two major business groupings:

-Upstream operations which include exploration for crude oil and natural gas and operating the infrastructure necessary to deliver oil and gas to the market.

-Downstream operations which include the manufacturing, distribution and marketing activities for oil products and chemicals

Safety is a priority for the company, with the aim to ensure id causes zero harm to people and the environment. The company has to satisfy the regulatory requirements of each of the countries it operates in.

The downstream business generates a third of the company’s profits worldwide and includes more than 30,000 petrol stations and various oil refineries. In some countries it also includes oil refining, a retail station network, lubricants manufacture and marketing, industrial fuel and lubricants sales. The practice for the downstream business has been to operate locally managed by local “operating companies”.

The Governing Board is concerned about the risk posed by operating in this complex global environment with a large part of the downstream business represented by local operating companies. As a result, the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) has appointed a Chief Compliance Officer (CEO) to be responsible for overseeing and managing compliance issues for the corporation. The CCO reports directly to the CEO.

The CCO has approved the expenditure of resources to establish an Enterprise Architecture program, and has mandated the use of the TOGAF standard as the framework. He has requested to be informed about the status of downstream operations that could impact regulatory compliance. He also wants the corporate legal staff and auditors to analyze all proposed new downstream operations to ensure that they are within the legal guidelines for each country. In addition, the local operating companies should be able to see that the architecture is appropriate for their needs.

The architecture project team has worked within the sponsor to complete a detailed Request for Architecture Work providing the high level project description. As the project commences the next phase, the necessary approvals from corporate and line management have been …..

Refer to the Scenario

You have been asked to recommend an approach that would enable the development of an architecture that addresses the needs of the Chief Compliance Officer, legal staff, auditors and the local operating companies.

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

Options:

A.

You recommend that a set of models be created for each project architecture that can be used to ensure that the system will be compliant with the local regulations. A formal review should be held with the stakeholders to verify that their concerns have been properly addressed by the models.

B.

You recommend that an analysis of the stakeholders is undertaken, including development of a Stakeholder Map. This will allow the architectures to define groups of stakeholders who have common concerns. The concerns and relevant viewpoints should be defined for each group of stakeholders, and recorded in the Architecture Vision document.

C.

You recommend that the ArchiMate modeling language is used to create a set of models that can be applied uniformly across all architecture projects. Each architecture should then be defined based on this fixed set of models. All concerned parties can then examine the models to ensure that their needs have been addressed.

D.

You recommend that a Communications Plan be created to address the powerful and influential stakeholders. This plan should include a report that summarizes the key features of the architecture with respect to each location and reflect the stakeholders’ requirements. You will check with each stakeholder that their concerns are being addressed.

Question # 6

You are working as an Enterprise Architect at a technology company. The company has multiple subsidiary companies, engaged in mobile, online shopping, cloud computing services, and a social media platform. The company has grown rapidly and claims to be adding 20 million new users a month.

The company has an established Enterprise Architecture (EA) program based on the TOGAF standard, sponsored jointly by the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Chief Information Officer (CIO). In your role as an Enterprise Architect within the EA team, you work closely with the business stakeholders in the company as well as the sponsors.

The senior leadership within the company is worried about the ability of the company to address the challenges of climate change and the opportunities around artificial intelligence. They are concerned that the business will not be sustainable without making significant changes. Most senior leaders feel that the operations must become more efficient, and the organization needs to change in order to achieve its future goals.

The CEO has decided that reorganizing its subsidiaries around artificial intelligence and machine learning will improve the way the company creates and delivers value. The sponsors have approved an EA project for the reorganization. The EA team has created a strategic architecture with the CEO and CIO. It includes an Architecture Vision and high-level definitions of the domain architectures. This sets out an ambitious plan over a three-year period and covers three distinct transformations to implement the reorganization.

The sponsors have read reports that up to 70% of companies are failing at digital and artificial intelligence transformation. They have made it clear that prior to the approval of the detailed Implementation and Migration Plan, the EA team needs to assess and mitigate the risks associated with the reorganization. They want assurance that the reorganization will succeed and deliver the promised increases in value for the business.

You have been asked by the EA team leader to recommend the approach to address the request from the sponsors.

Options:

A.

You would assess the organization’s preparedness to undergo change. This will allow the risks associated with the transformations to be identified, classified, and mitigated. This would include identifying dependencies between the set of changes, including gaps and work packages. It will also identify improvement actions to be worked into the Implementation and Migration Plan. The business value, effort, and risk associated with each transf

Question # 9

Your role is that of an Enterprise Architect, reporting to the Chief Enterprise Architect, at a technology company. The company provides staff, as well as cloud-based services for many government agencies.

The company uses the TOGAF standard as the method and guiding framework for its Enterprise Architecture (EA) practice. The Chief Technology Officer (CTO) is the sponsor of the activity. The practice uses an iterative approach for its architecture development. This has enabled the decision-makers to gain valuable insights into the different aspects of the business.

The nature of the business is such that the data and the information stored on the company systems are the company’s major asset and are highly confidential. The company employees work remotely and need constant access to the company systems, which is done by the public infrastructure. They use message encryption, secure internet connections using Virtual Private Networks (VPNs), and other standard security measures. The company has provided computer security awareness training for all its staff.

The Chief Security Officer (CSO) has noted an increase in distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks on companies with a similar profile. The CSO understands that even with thorough preparation, a major attack could stop employees from being able to do their jobs. This could lead to a large financial loss, damage to the company’s reputation with customers, and employees being unable to work.

A risk assessment has been completed, and the company has looked for cyber insurance that covers such attacks. The price for this insurance is very high. The CTO has decided not to get cyber insurance to cover such attacks.

You have been asked to describe the steps you would take to strengthen the current architecture to improve data protection.

Question # 12

You are working as an Enterprise Architect at a large company. The company runs many retail stores, as well as an online marketplace. The online marketplace allows hundreds of brands to partner with the company.

The company has a mature Enterprise Architecture (EA) practice and uses the TOGAF standard for its architecture development method. The EA practice is involved in all aspects of the business, with oversight provided by an Architecture Board with representatives from different parts of the business. The EA program is sponsored by the Chief Information Officer (CIO).

Many of the stores remain open all day and night. Each store uses a standard method to track sales and inventory. This involves sending accurate, timely sales data to a central AI-based inventory management system that can predict demand, adjust stock levels, and automate reordering. The central inventory management system is housed at the company's central data center.

The company has bought a major rival. The Chief Executive Officer believes that a merger will enable growth through combined offerings and cost savings. The decision has been taken to fully integrate the two organizations, including merging retail operations and systems. This means that duplicated systems will be replaced with one standard retail management system. Also, the company will reduce the number of applications that are used. The CIO expects significant savings will be achieved by implementing these changes across the newly merged company.

One improvement that the rival has successfully implemented is the use of hand-held devices within stores, for both customers and staff. This has increased both customer and staff employee satisfaction due to the time savings this has brought. The CIO has given the go-ahead to roll out the devices in all stores but has stated that training on how to use the hand-held devices should be brief because there are a lot of employees, many of whom are part-time.

The Request for Architecture Work to oversee the merger has been approved. The project has been scoped and you have been assigned to work on it. Your role includes managing the architecture for the retail stores.

Refer to the scenario:

You have been asked to confirm the most relevant architecture principles for the transformation.
