Please read this scenario prior to answering the question
Your role is that of an Enterprise Architect In a company that develops wind turbines for use in wind farms. The company has multiple manufactunng facilities, in North America, Asia, and Europe. Each of these facilities supplies the power industry In Its region. Most of the facilities are wholly owned by the company, but those In Asia are jointly owned with local partners.
The company has a mature Enterprise Architecture practice supported by a cross-functional Architecture Board and uses the TOGAF standard.
The company recognizes that the long-term technical potential of wind energy can address the current global dependency on carbon fuels. In order to do so this will require wind turbines to be installed over large areas and in areas of higher wind resources. In particular offshore wind farms can contribute substantially more energy than land stationed turbines.
The research arm of the company has pioneered the development of an offshore wind turbine design, with an improved turbine blade and power system, that will produce up to 20% more energy. 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 wortc 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 a low blade failure rate.
Refer to the Scenario
You have been asked to recommend the best approach to address the Chief Engineer's concern.
Based on the TOGAF Standard, Version 9.2. which of the following is the best answer?
Scenario
Please read this scenario prior to answering the question
Your role is consultant to the Lead Architect within a company that manufactures electromechanical devices. The company is organized as independent operational divisions.
The company has a mature Enterprise Architecture (EA) practice and uses the TOGAF standard for the basis of its architecture framework. In addition to the EA program, the company has a number of management frameworks in use, including business planning, portfolio/project management, and operations management. The EA program is sponsored by the CIO.
A strategic architecture has been approved that includes consolidation of multiple Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) applications that have been operating in several of the divisions’ production facilities. The goal is to replace the functionality of the existing applications with a new ERP product 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 manufacturing requirements.
The enterprise architects have analyzed the key corporate change attributes and implementation constraints. A consolidated gap analysis has been completed which has identified the gaps across the Business, Data, Application, and Technology domains.
Using the results of the gap analysis, the architects have reviewed the requirements, dependencies and interoperability requirements needed to integrate the new ERP environment into the existing environment. The architects have completed the Business Transformation Readiness Assessment started in Phase A. Based on all of these factors they have produced a risk assessment.
The implementation process is estimated to take four years. Because of the risks posed by the complexity of the current environment, a phased approach is needed to implement the target architectures. The Implementation and Migration Plan v0.1, the draft Architecture Roadmap, and the Capability Assessment deliverables are now complete.
You have been asked to recommend the next steps to prepare the final Implementation and Migration Plan.
Based on the TOGAF standard, which of the following is the best answer?
Which of the following best describes the Reference Library within the Architecture Repository?
You are an Enterprise Architect at a food production and distribution company. The primary goal of the company is to maximize profit while satisfying the needs of consumers for its products. Its customers are demanding food that is produced sustainably, safely, and transparently while reducing environmental impact.
The business is highly mechanized, and this mechanization has caused a decrease in the number of workers needed, together with a focus on agricultural engineering to improve the efficiency of its farms, its processing facilities, and the overall enterprise. As part of this, the company has established an Enterprise Architecture (EA) practice based on the TOGAF standard, using it as the method and guiding framework. The Chief Information Officer (CIO) is the sponsor of EA practice. The introduction of EA has enabled the decision-makers to have valuable insights into the different aspects of the business.
Global warming has caused a lot of poor harvests, and the company is producing fewer crops than before. This combined with an increase in costs for energy, feed, fuel, and fertilizer has led to a significant decrease in profits. The rising costs and reduced profits mean that the company is unable to take as much planned action on climate measures as it would like, such as reducing its carbon footprint. In response to the situation, the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) has decided that big changes are needed that will lead both to improved crop production and profitability. They must look to all aspects of the business. This includes looking at the mix of crops to mitigate for the change in climate.
The company will also cease to process its own crops and will sell off its processing facilities. Thus, the target market will change, and the end-products will be different and more varied. A formal request for architecture change has been approved. At this stage, there is no fixed scope, shared vision, or objectives.
Refer to the scenario:
You have been asked to propose the best approach for architecture development to realize the CEO's change in direction for the company.
