You are employed as an Enterprise Architect at a multinational energy company. The company is committed to reducing its emissions. To achieve this, the company is increasing production of renewable energy and adopting eco-friendly practices.

The company has an Enterprise Architecture (RA) practice and follows the TOGAF standard for its EA framework. The EA team manages all the major projects in the company. The EA team reports to the Chief Technical Officer (CTO), who is the sponsor of the EA program. The Architecture Board is made up of senior leaders from all parts of the company.

The company is starting to invest in developing various kinds of renewable energy projects, including solar, and wind. A large part of the growth in its renewable energy portfolio has come from buying other companies. The company is keen on acquiring small startups and mid-size companies to leverage their technical innovations. This way, the company aims to outperform its competitors, scale rapidly, and establish a presence in new markets.

The existing business and the newly acquired companies are not working well together, which increasingly causes problems. In response, a strategic plan was created and approved. The plan aims to make the merged companies work more effectively together. This will save money by sharing their common assets, including fixed capital assets, research and development facilities, and resources.

The EA team have been asked to oversee the transformation to carry out the strategic plan. A Request for Architecture Work for the project has created and has been approved. The goal is to strengthen the company's position in the market and reduce costs by taking advantage of economies of scale. The Chief Executive Officer (CEO) has stated that to stay competitive and relevant, the company must transform or entirely reinvent its business model.

Refer to the Scenario

What needs to be done to make sure that the company succeeds with the changes and how should risks be managed?

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

Options:
A.

The EA team should document the risks associated with the transformation in an Implementation Factor Catalog. This will be used as a record of important decisions during implementation and deployment for the transformation effort. The catalog should list all the factors to consider, their descriptions, and any limitations to consider. These factors can then be used to help evaluate the risks, which can be documented in the Implementation an

B.

The EA team should use the Business Scenarios technique to describe the business problem,

identify the stakeholders' concerns and achieve consensus on the requirements. Once the

requirements have been identified, they can be evaluated in terms of their risks. The risks should be assessed in terms of how they can be avoided, transferred, or reduced. Risks that cannot be

resolved should be identified as residual risks and ho

C.

The EA team should develop a set of Business Architecture views to demonstrate how stakeholder concerns are being addressed. These views can also be used to identify the factors that will impact the transformation. For each factor identified, there should be a structured assessment of the current state of each factor against a maturity model. This information can then be used to determine the potential risks associated with the transformati

D.

The EA team needs to identify obstacles that could hinder the project. This should include identifying the factors that will impact the transformation, and determining the readiness level for each factor based on a scale that will help the team to understand the urgency, readiness, and degree of difficulty to fix. These factors can be used to evaluate the initial risks of the change, areas of risk that need attention, and areas where you ne

You have been appointed as senior architect working for an autonomous driving technology development company. The mission of the company is to build an industry leading unified technology and software platform to support connected cars and autonomous driving.

The company uses the TOGAF Standard as the basis for its Enterprise Architecture (EA) framework. Architecture development within the company follows the purpose-based EA Capability model as described in the TOGAF Series Guide: A Practitioners'Approach to Developing Enterprise Architecture Following the TOGAF® ADM.

An architecture to support strategy has been completed defining a long-range Target Architecture with a roadmap spanning five years. This has identified the need for a portfolio of projects over the next two years. The portfolio includes development of travel assistance systems using swarm data from vehicles on the road.

The current phase of architecture development is focused on the Business Architecture which needs to support the core travel assistance services that the company plans to provide. The core services will manage and process the swarm data generated by vehicles, paving the way for autonomous driving in the future.

The presentation and access to different variations of data that the company plans to offer through its platform poses an architecture challenge. The application portfolio needs to interact securely with various third-party cloud services, and V2X (Vehicle-to-Everything) service providers in many countries to be able to manage the data at scale. The security of V2X is a key concern for the stakeholders. Regulators have stated that the user's privacy be always protected, for example, so that the drivers' journey cannot be tracked or reconstructed by compiling data sent or received by the car.

Refer to the scenario

You have been asked to describe the risk and security considerations you would include in the current phase of the architecture development?

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

Options:
A.

You will focus on the relationship with the third parties required for the travel assistance systems and define a trust framework. This will describe the relationship with each party. Digital certificates are a key part of the framework and will be used to create trust between parties. You will monitor legal and regulatory changes across all the countries to keep the trust framework in compliance.

B.

You will perform a qualitative risk assessment for the data assets exchanged with partners. This will deliver a set of priorities, high to medium to low, based on identified threats, the likelihood of occurrence, and the impact if it did occur. Using the priorities, you would then develop a Business Risk Model which will detail the risk strategy including classifications to determine what mitigation is enough.

C.

You will focus on data quality as it is a key factor in risk management. You will identify the datasets that need to be safeguarded. For each dataset, you will assign ownership and responsibility for the quality of data needs. A security classification will be defined and applied to each dataset. The dataset owner will then be able to authorize processes that are trusted for a certain activity on the dataset under certain circumstances.

D.

You will create a security domain model so that assets with the same level can be managed under one security policy. Since data is being shared across partners, you will establish a security federation to include them. This would include contractual arrangements, and a definition of the responsibility areas for the data exchanged, as well as security implications. You would undertake a risk assessment determining risks relevant to specific

Your role is that of a consultant to the Lead Enterprise Architect to an international supplier of

engineering services and automated manufacturing systems. It has three manufacturing plants

where it assembles both standard and customized products for industrial production

automation. Each of these plants has been operating its own planning and production

scheduling systems, as well as applications and control systems that drive the automated

production line.

The Enterprise Architecture department has been operating for several years and has mature,

well-developed architecture governance and development processes that are based on the

TOGAF Standard. The CIO sponsors the Enterprise Architecture.

During a recent management meeting, a senior Vice-President highlighted an interview where

a competitor company's CIO is reported as saying that their production efficiency had been

improved by replacing multiple planning and scheduling systems with a common Enterprise

Resource Planning (ERP) system located in a central data center. Some discussion followed,

with the CIO responding that the situations are not comparable, and the current architecture is

already optimized.

In response, the Architecture Board approved a Request for Architecture Work covering the

investigations to determine if such an architecture transformation would lead to improvements

in efficiency. You have been assigned to support the architecture team working on this project.

A well-known concern of the plant managers is about the security and reliability of driving their

planning and production scheduling from a remote centralized system. Any chosen system

would also need to support the current supply chain network consisting of local partners at

each of the plants.

You are employed as an Enterprise Architect within a large law firm. The firm operates in many countries and has a complicated structure. Every office must follow the local regulations in their country.

The firm has an established Enterprise Architecture (EA) department which has been operating for several years. It has architecture governance and development processes based on the TOGAF standard. In addition to the EA program, the firm has several management frameworks in use, including business planning, project/portfolio management, and operations management. The Architecture Board includes representatives from all parts of the firm.

The Chief Information Officer (CIO) is the sponsor of the Enterprise Architecture program. The CIO has actively encouraged architecting with agility within the EA department as her preferred approach for projects.

The CIO has given approval for a Request for Architecture Work to explore the adoption of an Al-based system for managing legal cases and financial processes.

Senior management has become more and more worried about how well the business is running, especially with the advancements in Artificial Intelligence (Al). Many of the firm's competitors have started using Al to assist with legal strategies, streamline processes, and boost productivity. One of the most important benefits Al has for the business is its ability to increase accuracy and minimize mistakes.

Some of the top managers are worried about a change in the way of working, and if it will achieve the goals.

Their staff also fear that management will use the system to measure their performance. The CIO wants to know how to address these concerns and reduce risks. The new system would provide guidance to legal professionals and analysts on which tasks to focus on. The main goals are to improve productivity and make better use of staff. In addition, the CIO hopes these changes will lead to higher customer satisfaction.

A set of business models should be developed with focus on the essential business problem and the vision of the change being proposed. These models will be used to build consensus with the top managers on the approach for deployment of the Al-based solution. A meeting should be held with the key stakeholders to explain how to use and understand the models. Risk will be managed as part of the Security Architecture development.

C.

An analysis of the stakeholders should be carried out. This will allow the architects to define groups of stakeholders who have common concerns and include development of a Stakeholder Map. The concerns and relevant views should then be defined for each group and recorded in the Architecture Vision document. To reduce risk, you include a requirement that there be progressive development of the target architecture to get regular feedback.

D.

Models should be created for each of the high-level Business, Application and Technology

architectures included in the Architecture Vision. The models can be used to help the top

management understand the new business direction, and make sure that the system will be

compliant with the local regulations for each operating entity. A formal review should be held with the stakeholders to confirm that their concerns have been p

Questions 45

Scenario:

You are working as an Enterprise Architect at a large company. The company runs a chain of home improvement stores, as well as a website for selling products. The website lets many brands work with the company.

The stores open seven days a week and use a standard method to track sales and inventory.
