In which ADM phase does the value and change management process determine the circumstances under which the Architecture Development Cycle will be initiated to develop a new architecture?
The value and change management process that determines the circumstances under which the Architecture Development Cycle will be initiated to develop a new architecture occurs in Phase H. Phase H, also known as the Architecture Change Management phase, is specifically tasked with managing changes to the architecture, including activating the process to implement change and determining whether such changes necessitate a new cycle of the Architecture Development Method (ADM).
15.3.7 Activate the Process to Implement Change Activate the architecture process to implement change: ■ Produce a new Request for Architecture Work and request for investment ■ Ensure any changes implemented in this phase are captured and documented in the Architecture Repository 15.4 Outputs The outputs of Phase H may include, but are not restricted to: ■ Architecture updates (for maintenance changes) ■ Changes to architecture framework and principles (for maintenance changes). In Phase H it is critical that the governance body establish criteria to judge whether a Change Request warrants *just an architecture update* or whether it *warrants starting a new cycle of the Architecture Development Method* (ADM).
