Question 5
Which statement about Requirements Management is most correct?
- A. The purpose of Requirements Management is to process change requests
- B. Stakeholder requirements are captured once in Phase A and managed throughout the ADM cycle
- C. Requirements Management is a step of all ADM Phases
- D. Requirements Management and stakeholder engagement are placed at the center of architecture development
Answer:
D
Explanation:
This statement about Requirements Management is most correct because it reflects the central role
of Requirements Management and stakeholder engagement in the ADM cycle. Requirements
Management is not a step of all ADM Phases, but rather an ongoing process that ensures that all
relevant requirements are elicited, analyzed, prioritized, and addressed throughout the architecture
development and transition. Stakeholder engagement is also a continuous activity that involves
identifying, communicating, and managing stakeholder expectations and concerns. Reference: The
TOGAF® Standard | The Open Group Website, Section 3.1 Introduction to the ADM.

Question 6
Consider the following ADM phases objectives.
Which phase does each objective match?
- A. 1F-2G-3G-4H
- B. 1H-2F-3F-4G
- C. 1F-2G-3H-4H
- D. 1G-2H-3H-4F
Answer:
B
Explanation:
According to the TOGAF Standard, Version 9.2, the ADM phases and their objectives are as follows1
:
Preliminary Phase: To prepare and initiate the architecture development cycle, including defining the
architecture framework, principles, and governance.
Phase A: Architecture Vision: To define the scope, vision, and stakeholders of the architecture
initiative, and to obtain approval to proceed.
Phase B: Business Architecture: To describe the baseline and target business architecture, and to
identify the gaps between them.
Phase C: Information Systems Architectures: To describe the baseline and target data and application
architectures, and to identify the gaps between them.
Phase D: Technology Architecture: To describe the baseline and target technology architecture, and
to identify the gaps between them.
Phase E: Opportunities and Solutions: To identify and evaluate the opportunities and solutions for
implementing the target architecture, and to define the work packages and transition architectures.
Phase F: Migration Planning: To finalize the implementation and migration plan, and to ensure
alignment with the enterprise portfolio and project management.
Phase G: Implementation Governance: To provide architecture oversight and guidance for the
implementation projects, and to manage any architecture change requests.
Phase H: Architecture Change Management: To monitor the changes in the business and technology
environment, and to assess the impact and performance of the architecture.
Requirements Management: To manage the architecture requirements throughout the ADM cycle,
and to ensure alignment with the business requirements.
Based on the above definitions, we can match each objective with the corresponding phase as
follows:
Objective 1: Ensure that the business value and cost of work packages and transition architectures is
understood by key stakeholders.
This objective is achieved in Phase H: Architecture Change
Management, where the value realization and cost-benefit analysis of the architecture are
performed2
.
Objective 2: Ensure conformance with the Target Architecture by implementation projects.
This
objective is achieved in Phase F: Migration Planning, where the conformance requirements and
criteria for the implementation projects are defined3
.
Objective 3: Ensure that the architecture development cycle is maintained.
This objective is achieved
in Phase F: Migration Planning, where the architecture roadmap and iteration cycle are maintained3
.
Objective 4: Ensure that the Architecture Governance Framework is executed.
This objective is
achieved in Phase G: Implementation Governance, where the architecture governance processes and
procedures are applied to the implementation projects4
.

- A. Ensuring compliance with internal and external standards and regulatory obligations
- B. Creating and maintaining the Statement of Architecture Work though out the ADM cycle
- C. Managing Stakeholders and their requirements
- D. Interacting with the CxO level on Enterprise Architecture
Answer:
A
Explanation:
Ensuring compliance with internal and external standards and regulatory obligations is one of the
activities included as part of Architecture Governance. Architecture Governance is the practice and
orientation by which enterprise architectures and other architectures are managed and controlled at
an enterprise-wide level. It involves establishing processes, roles, responsibilities, policies, and
standards to ensure that architectures are aligned with the enterprise’s strategy and objectives, and
meet the quality and performance requirements. Reference: The TOGAF® Standard | The Open
Group Website, Section 3.3.6 Architecture Governance.

Question 10
Complete the sentence The Enterprise Continuum provides methods for classifying architecture
artifacts as they evolve from________________________.
- A. Solutions Architectures to Solution Building Blocks
- B. generic architectures to reusable Solution Building Blocks
- C. Foundation Architectures to re-usable architecture assets
- D. generic architectures to Organization-Specific Architectures
Answer:
D
Explanation:
The Enterprise Continuum provides methods for classifying architecture artifacts as they evolve from
generic architectures to Organization-Specific Architectures. Generic architectures are architectures
that have been developed for use across a wide range of enterprises with similar characteristics.
They provide common models, functions, and services that can be reused and adapted for specific
purposes. Organization-Specific Architectures are architectures that have been tailored to meet the
needs and requirements of a particular enterprise or a major organizational unit within an
enterprise. They reflect the unique vision, goals, culture, structure, processes, systems, and
technologies of that enterprise or unit. Reference: The TOGAF® Standard | The Open Group Website,
Section 2.3 Enterprise Continuum.
