Your role is that of an Enterprise Architect in a multinational automotive and clean
energy company. The company designs and manufactures electric vehicles, battery
storage, and solar panels. The company has multiple manufacturing facilities, in North
America, Europe, and in Asia. Most of the facilities are wholly owned by the company,
but two in Asia are jointly owned with local partners.
The company has a mature Enterprise Architecture practice that is supported by a
cross-functional Architecture Board. The TOGAF standard is used for developing the
automated manufacturing process and systems used to design, manufacture and test
the new design. The Chief Information Officer and the Chief Operating Officer co-
sponsor the Enterprise Architecture program.
A challenge that the company is facing is to scale up the number of vehicles coming
off the production lines to meet customer demand. At the moment there are supply
chain shortages for key custom-designed electronic components used in the vehicles.
In response to this, the research arm of the company has pioneered the development
of a revised design using common off-the-shelf components that will allow for a
significant increase in overall vehicle production. This new design is ready to go into
production.
As part of putting the new design into production, adjustments to the automated
assembly processes need to be made. A pilot architecture project at a single location
has defined an updated approach for controlling the automated systems used to
perform final assembly and quality assurance. The Chief Engineer, sponsor of the
activity, and the Architecture Board have approved the plan for immediate
implementation at each plant.
Architecture Contracts have been developed that detail the work needed to implement
and deploy the new automated system controller for each location. The Chief
Engineer has expressed concern that a uniform process be employed at each location
to ensure consistency and quality.

Please read this scenario prior to answering the question
Your role is that of the Lead Enterprise Architect at a multinational automotive corporation. The company is headquartered in Germany, and manufactures cars, trucks and buses. It has manufacturing plants across North America, South America, Europe and Asia. Each of these plants has been operating its own planning and production scheduling systems, as well as custom developed applications that drive the automated production equipment at each plant.
The company has an ongoing initiative to improve the efficiency of all of its production operations, and in particular to reduce its carbon footprint. During a recent exercise held for internal quality improvement, it was determined that a significant reduction in energy usage could be achieved by replacing the current planning and scheduling systems with a common Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system located in one central data center. This central system would provide support to each of the plants replacing the functionality in the existing systems. It would also eliminate the need for full data centers at each of the plant facilities.
The Enterprise Architecture department has been operating for several years and has mature, well-developed architecture governance and development processes that are strongly based on TOGAF standard.
At a recent meeting, the Architecture Board approved a Request for Architecture Work sponsored by the global CIO. The request covered the initial architectural investigations and the development of a comprehensive architecture to plan the transformation.
The architecture project team has now been formed, and has been asked to develop an Architecture Vision that will achieve the desired outcomes and benefits. Some of the plant managers have expressed concern about the security and reliability of driving their planning and production scheduling from a remote centralized system. The CIO wants to know how these concerns can be addressed. During the initial project team meeting a number of alternative recommendation for how to proceed have been put forward by members of the team.
Refer to the Scenario
You have been asked to select the most appropriate recommendation to ensure that the team evaluates different approaches to the problem and clarifies the requirements for the architecture.

Your role is consultant to the Lead Enterprise Architect within a multinational manufacturing company. The company has several manufacturing divisions.
The company has a mature Enterprise Architecture practice and uses the TOGAF standard as the basis of Its architecture frame work. In conjunction with the EA program, the company uses several management frameworks. Including business planning, portfolio/project management, and operations management. The EA program is sponsored by the CIO.
The company has defined a strategic architecture to improve ils ability to meet customer demand and improve its ability to manage its supply chain. The strategic architecture called for the consolidation of multiple applications that have been operating independently in the divisions' production facilities. The goal is to replace the functionality of the existing applications with a new application running as a single instance in the company’s primary data center.
Each division has completed the Architecture Definition documentation required to tailor and configure the environment to meet its own specific manufactunng requirements.
The key corporate change attributes and implementation constraints have been confirmed. The gap analysis results have been consolidated and integrated, which has identified the gaps across the Business, Data. Application, and Technology domains. The requirements, dependencies and interoperability requirements needed to integrate the new application have been reviewed, consolidated, and validated.

You are serving as the Lead Architect for the enterprise architecture team at the prime contractor for the Dreadnought Unmanned Aircraft System program.
Over the course of this contract, the company has grown rapidly by acquisition and has inherited numerous different procurement processes and related IT systems. The decision has been made to consolidate and reduce redundant procurement processes and systems. The CEO has announced that the company will seek to leverage higher volume discounts and lower related IT support costs by instituting a preferred supplier program.
TOGAF 9 Is used for internal Enterprise Architecture activities, with an iterative approach for executing Architecture Development Method (ADM) projects.
At present, there are no particularly useful architectural assets related to this initiative, so all assets need to be acquired and customized or created from scratch. 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 existing processes or systems.
The architect-re development project has put in place Its Architecture Capability for this project and has started a number of iteration cycles to develop the Architecture. Some tasks to address concerns related to the Business Architecture have been completed. The next immediate task is to address the Information Systems Architectures.
The Information Systems Architectures must address stakeholder concerns such as:
1. Which procurement-related business processes are supported by zero, one, or many existing applications?
2. What non-procurement applications will need to be integrated with any new procurement applications?
3. What data will need to be shared?
