Scenario
Turbonix Enterprises
Please read this scenario prior to answering the question Turbonix Enterprises specializes in the
development of wind turbine blades for use in large-scale commercial wind energy production
systems. Turbonix has manufacturing facilities located in Palm Springs, California, Omaha, Nebraska,
and Winnipeg, Manitoba . Each of these plants supplies a different manufacturer that builds and
sells complete systems. The turbine blades are custom engineered to meet each manufacturer’s
design specifications.
Until recently, most turbine blades were fabricated manually using molded fiber-reinforced plastics.
However, recent improvements in composite materials, coupled with enhanced automated methods
for precision application of materials during the molding process, have led to significant reduction in
weight, increase in strength, and greatly improved blade longevity. Turbonix has pioneered the
development of a proprietary automated process for continuous extrusion of the turbine blades.
Patents have been filed to protect the process, but certain trade secrets must be closely guarded.

Turbonix has a mature Enterprise Architecture organization that is supported by a cross-functional
Architecture Review Board. The Chief Information Officer and the Chief Operating Officer cosponsor
the Enterprise Architecture program.
Turbonix has used T06AF and its Architecture Development Method (ADM) to develop its automated
manufacturing processes and systems that are used to design, manufacture, and test the blade
assemblies. They have adapted their Enterprise Architecture to closely follow the TOGAF 9
framework. All of Turbonix’s enterprise architects have been trained and certified on TOGAF
9.Recently, an architecture project was completed that defined a standard approach for controlling
the Automated Test System that is used at each plant to perform final quality assurance tests on
each completed blade assembly. The Manufacturing Architecture Board approved the plan for
immediate implementation at each plant.
An Architecture Contract was developed that detailed the work needed to implement and deploy
the new Automated Test System controller. The Chief Engineer, sponsor of the activity, has
expressed concern that a uniform process be employed at each site to ensure consistency.

in socially responsible seed development with a business strategy that focuses on profitability
through environmentally friendly operating processes. Summer Seed’s international operations are
subject to various legal and regulatory requirements. In areas such as genetically modified seeds,
governmental controls are strictly enforced and compliance is critical. Recently a competitor was
heavily fined for violating the regulations in a country where it was developing pest-resistant seeds.
The Governing Board is concerned, and as a result has approved the expenditure of resources to
establish an Enterprise Architecture program. They have requested information about the status of
projects that could impact regulatory compliance. They also want to enable the corporate legal staff
and auditors to analyze proposed architectures to ensure that they are within the legal guidelines for
a given location. 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 guiding framework for the
development and evolution of the Enterprise Architecture practice. Refer to the Summer Seeds BV
Scenario You have been appointed as the Lead Consultant. You have been asked to recommend an
approach that would enable the development of an architecture that addresses the needs of all

Scenario
Intrepid Space Industries
Please read this scenario prior to answering the question Intrepid Space Industries is the prime
contractor for the Telesto Unmanned Spacecraft program. Over the course of this contract, the
company has grown rapidly by acquisition and has inherited numerous different procurement
processes and related IT systems. Intrepid is moving aggressively to consolidate and reduce
redundant procurement processes and systems. The CEO has announced that the company will seek
to leverage higher volume discounts and lower related IT support costs by instituting a preferred
supplier program. To achieve this goal, Intrepid needs to define Baseline and Target Architectures.
These architectures must address key stakeholders’ concerns such as:
1. What groups of people should be involved in procurement-related business processes?
2. What current applications do those groups use?
3. Which procurement-related business processes are supported by zero, one, or many existing
applications?
4. What are the overall lifetimes of the Request for Proposal and Purchase Order business objects?
What non-procurement applications will need to be integrated with any new procurement
applications?
5. What data will need to be shared?
At present, there are no particularly useful architectural assets related to this initiative, so all assets
need to be acquired and customized or created from scratch. The company prefers to implement
existing package applications from systems vendors with little customization.
The architecture development project has just completed its Architecture Context iteration cycle and
is about to begin the Architecture Definition iteration cycle. Intrepid is using TOGAF for its internal
Enterprise Architecture activities. It uses an iterative approach for executing Architecture

Scenario

Sollace Manufacturing
Please read this scenario prior to answering the question Sollace Manufacturing 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. Sollace Manufacturing 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 Sollace Manufacturing 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
Sollace Manufacturing Scenario You are serving as the Lead Enterprise Architect for the Common
ERP Deployment architecture project. One of the earliest initiatives in the Enterprise Architecture
program at Sollace Manufacturing was the definition of a set of IT principles and architecture
principles that are well aligned with the overall enterprise principles. These now need to be updated
to address the concerns raised. You have been asked to select a set of principles most appropriate
for guiding the team to define a robust solution. [Note: You should assume that Sollace
Manufacturing has adopted the example set of principles that are listed and defined in TOGAF 9,
Section 23.6.] Based on TOGAF 9, which of the following is the best answer?

Acme Widgets Inc.
Please read this scenario prior to answering the question Acme Widgets Inc. manufactures a variety
of small electromechanical devices. As part of a corporate-wide Lean Manufacturing initiative, it has
defined a strategic architecture to improve its ability to meet consumer 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 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. Acme has a mature enterprise architecture practice and uses TOGAF 9 for the basis of its
architecture framework, [n addition to the EA program, Acme 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. 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 functional requirements and
interoperability requirements needed to integrate the new ERP environment into the existing
environment. Based on all of these factors, the architects have assessed the organization’s readiness
to conduct the business transformation and have produced a risk assessment. 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 Acme Widgets Scenario Your role is consultant to the
Lead Architect. The Implementation and Migration Plan v.0.l, the Transition Architectures v1.0, and
