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. The Business Transformation Readiness Assessment started in Phase A has been completed. The risks associated with the transformation effort have been identified, classified, mitigated for, and documented. The Implementation and Migration Plan v0.1, the draft Architecture Roadmap, and the Capability Assessment deliverables have been completed.

Because of the risks posed by the complexity of the current environment. It has been determined that a phased approach is needed to implement the target architectures. The overall implementation process Is estimated to take several years.

Please read this scenario prior to answering the question

Your role is that of an Enterprise Architect for a firm that is a major OEM parts supplier to the auto

industry. Europe has been the primary market for its products, with just 20% of its output being

exported to North America. The firm is planning to expand its exports to North America and to

establish sales in other regions.

The Enterprise Architecture (EA) program within the firm has been functioning for several years. It

has made significant progress in consolidating the technology portfolio and establishing key

standards. The Chief Information Officer (CIO) and the Chief Operating Officer (COO) are joint

sponsors of the EA program. The EA program is mature, with an active Architecture Board and a

well-defined architecture process and standard content templates based on the TOGAF

Architecture Content Framework. The EA program is well coordinated with the Project Management

Office, Systems Development, and Operations functions.

The firm is organized into business units with each addressing different auto industry sectors. Each

business unit has acquired other producers to expand its manufacturing capacity. This has resulted

in a complex environment with a high diversity of business and manufacturing systems.

The firm has completed a strategic plan to reorganize its Sales and Marketing organization

according to the target geographic markets. One of the goals of this reorganization is to improve

the ability of Marketing to collect more meaningful market analytics that will enable each sector to

better address market needs with effective marketing campaigns and global product presence.

A Request for Architecture Work to address the goals of the reorganization has been approved. As

the architecture team commences its work, the CIO has expressed concerns about whether the

firm will be able to adapt to the proposed change and how to manage the associated risks.

Please read this scenario prior to answering the question

The ABC company is a major supplier in the automotive industry, headquartered in Cleveland, Ohio with manufacturing plants in Chicago, Sao Paulo, Stuttgart, Yokohama, and Seoul. 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 is implementing lean manufacturing principles to minimize waste and improve the efficiency of all of its production operations. During a recent exercise held for internal quality improvement, it was determined that a significant reduction in process waste could be achieved by replacing the current planning and scheduling systems with a common Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system located in the Cleveland 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. A reduced number of IT staff could support the remaining applications. In some cases, a third-party contractor could provide those staff.

The company 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 9. At a recent meeting, the Architecture Review Board approved a Request for Architecture Work from the Chief Engineer of Global Manufacturing Operations who is the project sponsor. The request covered the initial architectural investigations and the development of a comprehensive architecture to plan the transformation.

The Common ERP Deployment architecture project team has now been formed, and the project team 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 central system located in Cleveland. The Chief Engineer wants to know how these concerns can be addressed.

Refer to the Scenario

You are serving as the Lead Enterprise Architect of the newly-formed Common ERP Deployment architecture project team.

As the Common ERP Deployment architecture project team assembles for its initial meeting, many of the participants have voiced concerns about the sweeping scope of the initiative. Others are confident that they know a solution that will work. During the meeting, a number of alternative recommendations for how to proceed are put forward by members of the team.

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.
