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
Development Method (ADM) projects.
