[All OGEA-103 Questions]

Please read this scenario prior to answering the question

Your role is consultant to the Lead Architect within a company that manufactures electronic components. The company has several divisions located worldwide. After a recent study, senior management have stated a concern about business efficiency considering the company's multiple data centers and duplication of applications.

The company has a mature Enterprise Architecture (EA) practice and uses the TOGAF standard for its architecture development method. In addition to the EA program, the company has a number of management frameworks in use, including business planning, project/portfolio management, and operations management. The EA program is sponsored by the CIO.

To address the concern, a strategic architecture has been defined to improve the ability to meet customer demand and operations management. The strategic architecture includes the consolidation of multiple applications that have been operating independently within the divisions and moving them to a cloud-based solution.

Each division has completed the Architecture Definition documentation to meet its own specific operational requirements. The enterprise architects have analyzed the key corporate change attributes and implementation constraints. A consolidated gap analysis has been completed. Based on the results of the gap analysis, the architects have reviewed the requirements, dependencies and interoperability requirements needed to integrate the new environment into the company. The architects have completed the Business Transformation Readiness Assessment. Based on all these factors they have produced a risk assessment. They have also completed the draft Implementation and Migration Plan, the draft Architecture Roadmap, and the Capability Assessment deliverables.

Because of the risks posed by change from the current environment, it has been determined that a phased approach is needed to implement the target architectures. The overall implementation process is estimated to take several years.

Refer to the scenario -

You have been asked what the next steps are for the migration planning.

Based on the TOGAF standard which of the following is the best answer?

A. You update the Architecture Definition Document including assigning project objectives and place it under configuration control. This will ensure that the architecture remains relevant and responsive to the needs of the enterprise. You would then produce an Implementation Governance Model to manage the lessons learned prior to finalizing the Implementation and Migration plan. You recommend that lessons learned be applied as changes to the architecture without review.
B. You estimate the business value for each project by applying the Business Value Assessment Technique. The assessment should focus on return on investment and performance evaluation criteria used to monitor the progress of the architecture transformation. You would confirm and plan a series of Transition Architecture phases using an Architecture Definition Increments Table. You would then document the lessons learned and generate the final Implementation and Migration Plan.
C. You assess how the Implementation and Migration plan impacts the other frameworks in use in the organization. Minimally you ensure that the plan is coordinated with the business planning, project/portfolio management and operations management frameworks. You assign a business value to each project, taking into account available resources and the strategic fit for the projects. You would then update the architecture roadmap and the Implementation and Migration Plan.
D. You conduct a series of Compliance Assessments to ensure that the architecture is being implemented according to the contract. The Compliance Assessment should verify that the implementation team is using the proper development methodology. It should include deployment of monitoring tools and ensure that performance targets are being met. If they are not met, then you would identify changes to performance requirements and update those in the Implementation and Migration Plan.

ChatGPT says its B, I'm not convinced. Given the scenario described, the best answer based on the TOGAF standard would be: B. You estimate the business value for each project by applying the Business Value Assessment Technique. The assessment should focus on return on investment and performance evaluation criteria used to monitor the progress of the architecture transformation. You would confirm and plan a series of Transition Architecture phases using an Architecture Definition Increments Table. You would then document the lessons learned and generate the final Implementation and Migration Plan. This answer aligns with the phased approach to implementation mentioned in the scenario, where the overall implementation process is estimated to take several years. It emphasizes assessing the business value of each project, planning transition architecture phases, documenting lessons learned, and generating the final Implementation and Migration Plan. This approach ensures that the migration planning is comprehensive, taking into account the business objectives, value, and progression of the architecture transformation.

if you use gpt 4; the produces the answer C. Option C is the most appropriate choice. This option ensures that the Implementation and Migration Plan is harmoniously integrated with other management frameworks within the organization, such as business planning, project/portfolio management, and operations management. It places emphasis on coordinating across different divisions and assessing strategic fit, which is vital in a scenario involving multiple divisions and a move to a consolidated cloud solution. This approach ensures that the migration aligns with the overall business strategy and operations, providing a holistic approach to handling the complexities of such a significant change.
