Scenario
Please read this scenario prior to answering the question Your role is that of the Lead Architect
working for a government agency responsible for immigration, customs, and border control. The
agency was formed by consolidating several smaller government agencies. The agency has
established an Enterprise Architecture practice based on TOGAF 9. The CIO is the executive sponsor
and has appointed an EA steering team to oversee the practice. There has been a considerable
increase in security requirements and immigration service requests in recent years, which have
expanded the scope and size of the operations of the agency. As a result, the existing Information
Technology architecture no longer meets the required service levels. A significant Enterprise
Architecture (EA) initiative is in progress with the opal to improve customer responsiveness and
satisfaction, and improve the overall operational efficiency of the agency. The current EA staff
members were internal appointments based on a request from the EA steering team to supply a
number of suitable individuals for the EA effort. Collectively, they possess a broad range of IT and
business analysis skills. However, the CIO has expressed concern about the diverse range of
experience within the team. There is concern that the EA staff may be lacking in some of the critical
skills that are required to properly conduct EA activities. It had been assumed that any EA-related
skill gaps would be overcome by on-the-job mentoring from the senior members of the EA staff.
Each architect was expected to attend a TOGAF training course and participate in other skill

development activities. A recent review of the EA program revealed that many EA staff members,
despite attending multiday training courses, were not proficient in analyzing or creating the models
and artifacts required for their assigned architecture projects. Stakeholders have observed errors
and inconsistencies in artifacts and deliverables being submitted for review. Refer to the Scenario
The CIO has asked you to recommend a professional development plan for the EA staff in order to
address the findings raised in the recent review. Based on TOGAF, which of the following is the best
answer?

Scenario
Please read this scenario prior to answering the Question You are working as a consultant to the
Chief Architect at a government agency responsible for securing all government communications
and information systems. The agency has recently received funding for a program that will upgrade
the reliability and performance of its secure communication systems which provide real-time, highly
secure communication of voice, video, and message data to remote locations around the world. The
agency has an established enterprise architecture (EA) capability based on TOGAF 9. The Executive
Director of the agency is the sponsor of the EA capability. Since reliable, high-performance, and
secure communications are essential to preserving national security, the Executive Director has
placed more stringent requirements for the architecture for the upgraded system. It must be able to
provide assurance and verification of specific performance measures on the key services that are
most crucial for system operation. Focusing on these service-level details and specific measurements
will allow more stringent requirements to be enforced in service contracts. It will also provide a high
degree of assurance that necessary performance is being delivered and that notifications will occur if
any critical service fails to perform as required. A portion of the program budget has been allocated
to context a review of the EA . The scope of the review is to evaluate the processes, content and
governance of the EA capability to ensure that the higher target performance and service levels
required by the upgraded system can be achieved. The Chief Architecture has noted that the core EA
artifacts that have been used since TOGAF 9 was introduced are not adequate to describe these new
capabilities. The artifacts do not have explicit provisions for defining the in-depth measurement
requirements regarding specific services required for the system. She has learned that certain
services within the current system have service measurement implementations that match some of
the new requirements, but they are only used in a few areas. Recent EA efforts at another national
agency have produced generalized high-performance communication system models to realize
similar requirements in a critical defense system involving secure communications. It is possible that
these models may be useful for the upgrade program. Refer to the Scenario You have been asked to
make recommendations for tailoring the Architecture Content Metamodel to accommodate the
requirements of the upgraded system. Based on TOGAF, which of the following is the best answer?

Scenario
Please read this scenario prior to answering the Question You are serving as the Lead Architect for
an enterprise architecture project team within a leading multinational pharmaceutical and medical
devices manufacturer. Its brands include numerous household names for medications and first aid
supplies. The company has a long history of innovating new treatments for many common illnesses
and diseases. Prior to launching a new treatment, the company has to demonstrate Its effectiveness
and safety in a set of clinical trials that satisfy the regulatory requirements of the countries in the
target markets. All clinical trials are undertaken by its research laboratories, which employ over
10,000 people at separate facilities in the United Kingdom, United States, Sweden, France, Canada,

India, China and Japan. In addition to internal research and development activities the company is
also involved in publicly funded collaborative research projects, with other industrial and academic
partners. The Enterprise Architecture group within the company has been engaged in an
architecture development project to create a secure networked collaboration system that will allow
researchers at its product development laboratories worldwide to share information about their
clinical trials. This system will also connect with external partners. The Enterprise Architecture group
within the company has been engaged in an architecture development project to create a secure
networked collaboration system that will allow researchers at its product development laboratories
worldwide to share information about their clinical trials. This system will also connect with external
partners. The Enterprise Architecture group is a mature organization. They use the TOGAF 9 ADM
with extensions required to support current good manufacturing practices and good laboratory
practices in their target markets. Due to the highly sensitive nature of the information that is
managed, special care was taken to ensure that each architecture domain included an examination
of the security and privacy issues that are relevant. The Executive Vice President for Clinical Research
is the sponsor of the Enterprise Architecture activity. She has stated that the changes to the
enterprise architecture for the new system will need to be rolled out in stages on a regional basis
that minimizes disruptions to ongoing clinical trials. Refer to the Scenario You have been asked to
recommend the approach to identify the work packages that will be included in the Transition
Architecture(s). Based on TOGAF, which of the following is the best answer?

Scenario
Please read this scenario prior to answering the Question You are serving as the Lead Architect for
an insurance company, which has been formed through the merger of three previously independent
companies. The company now consists of three divisions with the same names and division
headquarters as their predecessors. The lack of integration between the three divisions has
increasingly caused problems in the handling of customer and financial information. The inability to
share information has resulted in lost opportunities to leverage the synergies that should have been
possible as a result of the merger. At present, each division maintains its own applications. Despite
an earlier initiative to install a common application to manage customer, products, and claims
information, each division has different ways of defining these core elements and has customized
the common application to the point where the ability to exchange information is difficult, costly,
and error-prone. As a result, the company has made the decision to introduce a common web portal,
contact center software suite, and document management system. Also the company has selected a
single enterprise-wide customer relationship management (CRM) application to consolidate
information from several applications that exist across the divisions. The application will be used by
each of the divisions and accessed by third party partners through well defined interfaces. The
Corporate Board is concerned that the new application must be able to manage and safeguard
confidential customer information in a secure manner that meets or exceeds the legal requirements
of the countries in which the company operates. This will be an increasingly important capability as
the company expands its online services in cooperation with its partners. The CIO has formed an
Enterprise Architecture department, and one of the primary goals in its charter is to coordinate
efforts between the implementation team and the migration teams in each division. The CIO has
also formed a cross-functional Architecture Board to oversee and govern the architecture. The
company has an existing team of security architects. TOGAF 9 has been selected as the core
framework for use for the Enterprise Architecture program. The CIO has endorsed this choice with
the full support of top management. Refer to the Scenario As part of the process for establishing the
Enterprise Architecture department; you are developing a set of architecture principles to guide the
activities. You need to recommend the best approach for this work. Based on TOGAF, which of the
following is the best answer?

Which of the following TOGAF components was created to enable architects to design architectures
addressing Boundary less Information Flow?
