Please read this scenario prior to answering the question
The ABC company specializes in the development of wind turbine blades for use in large-scale commercial wind energy production systems. The company 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. The company 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.
The company 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 co-sponsor the Enterprise Architecture program.
The company has used T0GAF 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 the company'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 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?

1. A. You create an Architecture Contract to manage and govern the implementation and migration proces
2. B. If the contract is issued to an external party, you ensure that it is a fully enforceable legal contrac
3. C. For internal development projects, you decide it is adequate to utilize a memorandum of understanding between the Manufacturing Architecture Board and the implementation organization.You recommend that if a deviation from the contract is detected, the Manufacturing Architecture Board should modify the Architecture Contract to allow the implementation organization the ability to customize the process to meet their local need
4. D. As a result, you then issue a new Request for Architecture Work to implement the modified Architecture Definition.
5. E. You create an Architecture Contract to manage and govern the implementation and migration proces
6. F. If the contract is issued to an external party, you ensure that it is a fully enforceable legal contrac
7. G.

12. L. If the contract is issued to an external party, you ensure that it is a fully enforceable legal contrac
13. M. You ensure that the contract addresses the project objectives, effectiveness metrics, acceptance criteria, and risk managemen
14. N. You then schedule compliance reviews at key points in the implementation process to ensure that the work is proceeding in accordance with the Architecture Definitio
15. O. Based on the results, you ensure that the Manufacturing Architecture Board reviews all deviations from the Architecture Contract, and considers whether or not to grant a dispensation to allow the implementation organization to customize the process to meet their local needs.

Correct Answer: D
Incorrect:
Not C: correct, but missing contract see 49.2.2.. Note:
* Dispensations
A dispensation is used as the mechanism to request a change to the existing architectures, contracts, principles, etc. outside of normal operating parameters; e.g., exclude provision of service to a subsidiary, request for unusual service levels for specific business reasons, deploy non-standard technology or products to support specific business initiatives.
Dispensations are granted for a given time period and set of identified services and operational criteria that must be enforced during the lifespan of the dispensation. Dispensations are not granted indefinitely, but are used as a mechanism to ensure that service levels and operational levels, etc. are met while providing a level flexibility in their implementation and timing. The timebound nature of dispensations ensures that they are a trigger to the Architecture Compliance activity.

Scenario
Please read this scenario prior to answering the Question
You are working as a consultant to the Chief Architect at an intelligence and security organization responsible for securing government communications and information systems. These provide real-time, highly secure communication of voice, video, and message data to remote locations around the world. The agency has recently received information from intelligence sources that the current encryption protocols may no longer be secure. In response, a program is underway to upgrade the systems.
The agency has an established Enterprise Architecture (EA) capability based on the TOGAF standard. The Executive Director of the agency is the sponsor of the EA capability.
Since reliable, high-performance, and secure communications are essential to preserving national security, the Executive Director has placed more stringent requirements for the architecture of the upgraded systems. It must be able to provide assurance and verification of specific performance measures on the key services that are most crucial for system operation. Focusing on these service-level details and specific measurements, will allow stricter requirements to be enforced in service contracts. It will also provide a high degree of assurance that necessary performance is being delivered and that notifications will occur if any critical service fails to perform as required.
A portion of the program budget has been allocated to context a review of the EA. The scope of the review is to evaluate the processes, content and governance of the EA capability to ensure that the higher target performance and service levels required by the upgraded system can be achieved.
The Chief Architect has noted that the core EA artifacts that have been in use are not able to describe these new capabilities. The artifacts do not have explicit provisions for defining the in-depth measurement
requirements regarding specific services required for the system. She has learned that certain services within the current system have service measurement implementations that match some of the new requirements, but they are only used in a few areas.
Recent EA efforts at another national agency have produced generalized high-performance communication system models to realize similar requirements in a critical defense system involving secure communications. It is possible that these models may be useful for the upgrade program.
Refer to the Scenario
[Note: You may need to refer to the Content Metamodel chapter, section 30.4 (located in Part IV) of the reference text in order to answer this question.]
You have been asked to make recommendations for tailoring the Architecture Content Metamodel to accommodate the requirements of the upgraded system.
Based on the TOGAF standard, which of the following is the best answer?

1. A. You recommend that a Communications Engineering view is created using the infrastructure consolidation extension from the Architecture Content Metamode
2. B. This view will allow architects to align the needed performance measurement communications across the syste
3. C. This will support the stringent performance measurements needed for the more detailed governance views required for the upgraded system, making the interfaces to the communication and network layer of the architecture highly visible at the application level.
4. D. You recommend that the services extension be incorporated into the Architecture Content Metamodel.By using this extension, the service model is no longer constrained by what is expected in typical business service definitions, allowing more flexibility for adding customized models to support the more stringent measurement requirement
5. E. The services extension can also be used to map terminology between the business services and the application components.
6. F. You recommend that the motivation and governance extension are incorporated into the Architecture Content Metamode
7. G. Using these extensions will allow modeling the goals, objectives and drivers for the architecture, linking them to service levels and more detailed governance model
8. H. This will also enable the ability to re-use existing profiles, customizing them for the various service contracts involved.
9. I. You recommend all of the extensions be incorporated into the Architecture Content Metamode
10. J. The full Content Metamodel will enable the EA team to capture and categorize all the important additional data needed to support the performance and measurement objectives linked to these artifact
11. K. Once the new repository content has been implemented, on- demand queries can be used to generate a customized governance stakeholder view that isolates the artifacts and data needed to assess measurement for any particular servic
12. L. If this view is found to be inadequate for the governance concerns, the service models within those artifacts can be expanded.

Correct Answer: B
