Scenario:

Please read this scenario prior to answering the question
Your role is that of a consultant to the Lead Enterprise Architect in a company that develops wind turbines for use in wind farms. The company has three manufacturing facilities, one in North America, one in Asia, and one in Europe. Each of these facilities supplies the power industry in its region.
The company recognizes that the long-term technical potential of wind energy can address the current global dependency on carbon fuels. In order to do so this will require wind turbines to be installed over large areas of higher wind resources. In particular offshore wind farms can contribute substantially more energy than land stationed turbines.
The research arm of the company has pioneered the development of an offshore wind turbine design, with an improved turbine blade and power system, that will produce up to 20% more energy. This will allow the production of significantly more saleable energy. This new design is ready to go into production.
The company has a mature Enterprise Architecture practice supported by a cross-functional Architecture Board and uses the TOGAF standard. The Chief Information Officer and the Chief Operating Officer co-sponsor the Enterprise Architecture program.
As part of putting the new design into production, a pilot architecture project has defined an updated standard approach for controlling the automated test systems used to perform final quality assurance to perform final quality assurance. The Architecture Board approved the plan for immediate implementation at each plant.
Architecture Contracts have been developed that detail the work needed to implement and deploy the new Automated Test System controller for each location. The Chief Engineer, sponsor of the activity, has expressed concern that a uniform process be employed at each location to ensure consistency.
Refer to the Scenario
You have been asked to recommend the best approach to address the Chief Engineer's concern.

Based on the TOGAF standard, Version 9.2, which of the following is the best answer?

Examsnet · Accepted Answer

Correct Answer is :  You use the Architecture Contracts to manage the architecture governance processes for the project across the locations. You deploy monitoring tools toassess the performance of each completed turbine at each location and develop change requirements if necessary.  You recommend that if a deviation from the contract is detected, the Architecture Board should modify the Architecture Contract to allow the implementationorganization the ability to customize the process to meet their local needs. As a result, you then issue a new Request for Architecture Work to implement themodified Architecture Definition.
