The Open Group OGEA-102 Dumps

At this stage in the scenario:

A strategic architecture has been completed.

All divisions have completed their Architecture Definition Documents.

Work packages have been defined.

Transition Architectures between Baseline and Target are already identified.

A draft roadmap exists for a multi-year phased migration.

You are now asked to plan the next steps for the migration, which aligns exactly with TOGAF ADM Phase F: Implementation and Migration Planning.

In Phase F, TOGAF prescribes the following key activities:

Evaluate and prioritize projects and work packages

Determine business value, cost, risk, dependencies

Confirm Transition Architectures and sequencing

Update and finalize the Implementation & Migration Plan

Option B is the ONLY answer that correctly follows these required TOGAF steps.

✔ Why Option B is correct

Option B states:

“Estimate the business value for each project by applying the Business Value Assessment Technique … to prioritize the migration projects.”✔ This is a TOGAF-recommended technique specifically for Phase F to evaluate and prioritize transformations using value, risk, and ROI.

“Confirm and plan a series of Transition Architecture phases … using a table of Architecture Definition Increments.”✔ Exactly aligned with TOGAF:

Transition Architectures were identified earlier.

In Phase F, they must be confirmed, sequenced, and documented.

“Update the Implementation and Migration Plan.”✔ This is the required output of ADM Phase F.✔ At this point, the plan must be validated and finalized based on value and prioritization.

Thus, Option B directly matches TOGAF’s prescribed migration planning process.

✘ Why the other options are incorrect

A – Incorrect

Suggests finalizing Architecture Definition documentation—this was already completed by each division.

Introduces an “Implementation Governance Model,” which is not a TOGAF artifact at this stage.

Focuses on lessons learned BEFORE execution, which is not appropriate for migration planning.

C – Incorrect

Focuses only on project selection and resource assignment.

Does not use TOGAF techniques for value/risk evaluation.

Does not reference Transition Architectures, which are central in the scenario.

Oversimplifies Implementation & Migration Planning to resource scheduling.

D – Incorrect

Compliance Assessments occur DURING execution, not before migration planning.

At this stage, no implementation has started, so compliance reviews are premature.

Adjusting performance requirements now has no alignment with TOGAF’s ADM sequence.

Business continuity is the ability of an organization to maintain essential functions during and after a disaster or disruption. Business continuity requirements are the specifications and criteria that define the acceptable level of performance and availability of the business processes and services in the event of a disaster or disruption. A gap analysis is a technique that compares the current state of the architecture with the desired state, and identifies the gaps or differences that need to be addressed. A change request is a formal proposal for an amendment to some product or system, such as the architecture. A Request for Architecture Work is a document that describes the scope, approach, and expected outcomes of an architecture project123

The best answer is A, because it describes the steps that would improve the resilience of the current architecture, which is the ability to withstand and recover from a ransomware attack or any other disruption. The steps are:

Determine the business continuity requirements, which specify the minimum acceptable level of performance and availability of the business processes and services in case of a ransomware attack. This would involve identifying the critical business functions, the recovery time objectives, the recovery point objectives, and the dependencies and resources needed for recovery.

Undertake a gap analysis of the current Enterprise Architecture, which compares the current state of the architecture with the desired state based on the business continuity requirements. This would involve assessing the strengths and weaknesses of the current architecture, the risks and opportunities for improvement, and the gaps or differences that need to be addressed.

Make recommendations for change requirements to address the situation and create a change request. This would involve proposing solutions and alternatives to close the gaps, enhance the resilience, and mitigate the risks of the current architecture. The change request would document the rationale, scope, impact, and benefits of the proposed changes, and seek approval from the relevant stakeholders.

Manage a meeting of the Architecture Board to assess and approve the change request. The Architecture Board is a governance body that oversees the architecture work and ensures compliance with the architecture principles, standards, and goals. The meeting would involve presenting the change request, discussing the pros and cons, resolving any issues or conflicts, and obtaining the approval or rejection of the change request.

Once approved, produce a new Request for Architecture Work to activate an ADM cycle to carry out a project to define the change. The Request for Architecture Work would describe the scope, approach, and expected outcomes of the architecture project that would implement the approved change request. The Request for Architecture Work would initiate a new cycle of the Architecture Development Method (ADM), which is the core process of the TOGAF standard that guides the development and management of the enterprise architecture.

The Chief Engineer is concerned that implementation across multiple plants and mixed teams (internal + contractors) may be inconsistent and of poor quality.

The question asks: How should Architecture Contracts be used to address this concern according to the TOGAF standard?

TOGAF states that an Architecture Contract must:

Define obligations of both architecture and implementation organizations

Specify metrics, measures, acceptance criteria, and success factors

Identify risks and mitigation

Support Architecture Governance through compliance reviews

Apply to BOTH internal teams and external suppliers (external contracts must be legally enforceable)

Option C is the only one that correctly reflects these TOGAF requirements.

✔ Why Option C is correct

1. Architecture Contracts must specify goals, measures, acceptance terms, and risks

TOGAF explicitly states that Architecture Contracts should include:

Statement of Architecture Work

Performance metrics and measures

Acceptance criteria

Risks and issues

Compliance and conformance requirements

Option C includes all of these.

2. Third-party contracts must be legally enforceable

True — TOGAF states that when external suppliers are involved, Architecture Contracts often take the form of legally binding contracts.

Option C:

“Third-party contracts must be legally enforceable.”

Correct.

3. Compliance reviews must be scheduled

TOGAF’s Architecture Governance Framework prescribes scheduled Architecture Compliance Reviews to ensure that implementation conforms to the Architecture Contract.

Option C:

“establish a schedule of compliance reviews at key points”

Correct — this directly addresses the Chief Engineer’s concern about consistency and quality.

4. Deviations must be reviewed by the Architecture Board and any dispensations should be time-bound

TOGAF allows dispensations but requires:

Formal review

Approval by the Architecture Board

Time-bound accommodations rather than permanent exceptions

Option C includes exactly this guidance.
