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. Refer to the
Turbonix Enterprises Scenario You are the Lead Architect for this activity. You have been
asked to recommend the best approach to adopt to address the Chief Engineer’s concern.
Based on TOGAF 9, which of the following is the best answer?

Scenario Glacier Ridge LLC Please read this scenario prior to answering the question
Glacier Ridge LLC is a vacation property management firm that is growing through
acquisition. It manages over 200 resort properties across North America . Many of the resort
properties use the same internal IT systems that they used before they were acquired. Until
recently, the only requirement that has been placed en each property is that they use a
standard financial reporting system to report their financials ID the headquarters on a
weekly basis. The CEO has stated his concerns about the inefficiencies of the current
approach and identified the need to change. He has defined a new strategic vision that will
enhance the Glacier Ridge property business by standardizing its operations across the
network to provide consolidated financial, human resources, logistics, sales and marketing,

and yield management. He has also stated that he expects results by the end of the current
fiscal year. These changes will provide the company with improved utilization of its capacity
and more efficient operations. The addition of a corporate-wide data warehouse will provide
analytics that will enable the marketing group to improve its ability to target advertising into
key markets to improve yields. Glacier Ridge has a mature enterprise architecture (EA)
practice and uses TOGAF 9 as the method and guiding framework. The CIO is the sponsor
of the activity. In planning this change, the Chief Architect engaged the services of a
well-known consulting firm that specializes in business strategy. An initial study has been
conducted to identify the strategic changes needed to implement the CEO’s vision. This
recently completed with approval of a strategic architecture encompassing the entire firm,
including detailed requirements and recommendations. Based on the recommendations
from the initial engagement, Glacier Ridge has embraced an Architecture Vision to adopt an
enterprise application that is tailored to the needs of the hospitality industry. Refer to the
Glacier Ridge scenario Your role is that of Chief Architect. You have been asked to
recommend the best approach to take in this architecture engagement to realize the CEO’s
vision. Based on TOGAF 9, which of the following is the best answer?

Scenario Summer Seeds BV Please read this scenario prior to answering the question
Summer Seeds BV is an international agricultural company exporting bulbs, flowers and
seeds worldwide. It is headquartered in Rotterdam in the Netherlands, and has sales and
distribution centers in over 60 countries worldwide. Several of these centers include
administrative, manufacturing and research facilities. To achieve full integration of their
research capabilities with their development centers located in various climate zones, the
company wants to develop strong self-directed teams in each location. It also wants to
define new business models that are profitable while reducing their impact on the
environment. The management is deeply committed to ensuring that the company is a world
leader 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 these parties. Based on
TOGAF 9, which of the following is the best answer?

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. The architecture development project has just completed its
