projects. Outsourcing services include business processes, infrastructure, and service management. The

the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Information Officer. An Architecture Board has been formed comprised of
IT staff executives and executives from the major service areas and consulting practice.
The Enterprise Architecture (EA) team has been working with the Strategic Planning team to create a strategic
enterprise architecture to address these issues. The EA team has defined a framework and held workshops
with key stakeholders to define a set of architecture principles to govern the architecture work. They have
completed an Architecture Vision at a strategic level and laid out Architecture Definitions for the four domains.
They have set out an ambitious vision of the future of the company over a five-year period. This includes a
solution architecture including three distinct transformations.
The CIO has made it clear that prior to the approval of the detailed implementation and Migration plan, the EA
team will need to assess the risks associated with the proposed architecture. He has received concerns from
some of the vice presidents across the company that the proposed architecture may be too ambitious and they
are not sure it can produce sufficient value to warrant the attendant risks.

You have been appointed as a consultant to the Chief Enterprise Architect of a multinational pharmaceutical
corporation. The corporation includes 30 subsidiary companies with operations in over 60 countries and
products sold in over 125 countries. It has major research and development sites in over 45 locations
worldwide.
The management team is deeply committed to ensuring that the corporation is a world leader in socially
responsible pharmaceutical development with a business strategy that focuses on profitability through
environmentally friendly operating processes as well as a commitment to disease eradication.
The operations of the corporation are subject to legal and regulatory requirements for each country where they
operate. The production of prescription pharmaceutical products has governmental controls that are strictly
enforced and compliance is critical. Recently a competitor was heavily fined for violating the regulations in a
country where it was conducting a clinical trial for a new regulated drug.
The Governing Board is concerned about the risks posed in this complex global environment. As a result the
Chief Executive Officer (CEO) has appointed a Chief Compliance Officer (CCO) to be responsible for
overseeing and managing compliance issues for the corporation. The CCO reports directly to the CEO.
The CCO has approved the expenditure of resources to establish an Enterprise Architecture program. He has
requested to be informed about the status of projects that could impact regulatory compliance. He also wants
the corporate legal staff and auditors to analyze all proposed architectures to ensure that they are within the
legal guidelines for each country. In addition, the research organization should be able to see that the
architecture is appropriate for its needs.
TOGAF 9 has been mandated as the framework for the development and evolution of the Enterprise
Architecture practice. The Preliminary Phase has been completed to establish the enterprise architecture
capability for this project.
Refer to the Scenario
You have been asked to recommend an approach that would enable the development of an architecture that
addresses the needs of the Chief Compliance Officer, legal staff, auditors and the research organization.

Your role is consultant to the Lead Architect within a multinational semiconductor and software design
company. Its largest business is in processors, although it also designs system-on-a-chip infrastructure and
manufactures memory chips. A characteristic feature of its processors is their low electric power consumption,
which makes them particularly suitable for use in portable devices. As well as licensing its technology, the
company has several manufacturing divisions.
The company has a mature enterprise architecture practice and uses TOGAF 9 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.
The company has defined a strategic architecture to improve its ability to meet customer demand and improve
its ability to manage its supply chain. The strategic architecture called for the consolidation of multiple
Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) 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 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. Based on 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. They have also completed the Implementation and Migration Plan v0.1, the draft Architecture
Roadmap, and the Capability Assessment deliverables.
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.
Refer to the Scenario
You have been asked to recommend the next steps to prepare the final Implementation and Migration Plan.
