The Open Group Exam OG0-093 Topic 2 Question 98 Discussion

Actual exam question for The Open Group's OG0-093 exam

Question #: 98
Topic #: 2

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?

AYou would assess how the plan impacts the other frameworks in use in the organization. The plan should be coordinated with the business planning, portfolio/project management and operations management frameworks. You would then assign a business value to each project, considering available resources and priorities for the projects. Finally, you would generate the Implementation and Migration Plan.

BYou would apply the Business Value Assessment Technique to prioritize the implementation projects and project increments. The assessment should focus on return on investment and performance evaluation criteria that can be used to monitor the progress of the architecture transformation. You would confirm the Transition Architecture phases using an Architecture Definition Increments Table to list the projects. You would then document the lessons learned and generate the final plan.

CYou would place the strategic Architecture Definition and Transition Architectures under configuration control as part of the ongoing architecture development cycle. This will ensure that the architecture remains relevant and responsive to the needs of the enterprise. You would then produce an Implementation Governance Model to manage the lessons learned prior to finalizing the plan. You recommend that lessons learned be accepted by the Architecture Board as changes to the architecture without review.

DYou would conduct a series of Compliance Assessments to ensure that the implementation team is implementing the architecture according to the contract. The Compliance Assessment should verify that the implementation team is using the proper development methodology. It should include deployment of monitoring tools and ensure that performance targets are being met. If they are not met, then changes to performance requirements should be identified and updated in the Implementation and Migration Plan.

Whoa, this scenario is like a corporate buffet of management frameworks. I'm getting indigestion just thinking about it.

Compliance Assessments, huh? Sounds like a great way to keep the implementation team on their toes. Plus, who doesn't love a good performance target?

Configuration control? Architecture Board? Nah, let's just get this done without all the red tape, am I right?

Wait, we have to coordinate with all those other frameworks? This is getting way too complicated for me.
