Scenario Please read this scenario prior to answering the Question You are serving as the
Lead Architect for the enterprise architecture team at a large multinational aerospace and
defense company. The company has grown rapidly by acquisition and has inherited
numerous different procurement processes and related IT systems. Several procurement
processes have had problems related to the timing of purchases, which has led to excess
inventory. The Vice President in charge of Supply Chain Management has made the
decision to consolidate and reduce redundant procurement processes and systems. The
company will move to a “Just-in-time” procurement system so as to keep inventory costs
low. TOGAF 9 is used for internal Enterprise Architecture activities. This project is using an
iterative approach for executing the Architecture Development Method (ADM). At present,

there are no particularly useful architectural assets in the Architecture Repository that are
related to this initiative. All assets will need to be acquired, customized, or created from
scratch. The company prefers to implement commercial off the shelf package applications
with little customization. The CIO, who is the project sponsor, has stated that she is not
concerned about preserving the existing procurement processes or systems. The
architecture development project has completed the Preliminary Phase and has started a
number of iteration cycles to develop the Architecture. As a packaged application is being
considered, the next iteration will include both the Business and Application Architectures.
Key stakeholder concerns that should be addressed by these architectures include: 1. What
groups of people should be involved in procurement-related business processes? 2. What
are the overall lifetimes of the Request for Proposal and Purchase Order business objects?
3. What non-procurement applications will need to be integrated with any new procurement
applications? Refer to the Scenario [Note: You may need to refer to Chapter 35 of the
reference text in order to answer this question.] You have been asked to identify the most
appropriate catalogs, matrices, and diagrams to support the next iteration of Architecture
development. Based on TOGAF, which of the following is the best answer?

A.
In the next iteration of Architecture development, you would describe the Baseline
Business Architecture with a Business Service/Function catalog, an Organization/Actor
catalog, and a Data EntityyBusiness Function matrix. You would describe the Baseline
Application Architecture with an Application/Function matrix.

B.
In the next iteration of Architecture development, you would describe the Target Business
Architecture with a Business ServiceyFunction catalog, an Organization/Actor catalog, and
Data Lifecycle diagrams. You would describe the Target Application Architecture with
Application Communication diagrams and an Application Interaction matrix.

C.
In the next iteration of Architecture development, you would describe the Target
Business Architecture with a Business Service/Function catalog, a Business Interaction
matrix, and Product Lifecycle diagrams. You would describe the Target Application
Architecture with Application Communication diagrams and an Application Interaction
matrix.

D.
In the next iteration of Architecture development, you would describe the Baseline
Business Architecture with a Baseline Business Process catalog, and an Object lifecycle
catalog. You would describe the Baseline Application Architecture with a Technology

Portfolio catalog.
