Examice · Accepted Answer

Prior to preparing an Implementation plan, it is crucial to assess the risks and value of the proposed transformation comprehensively. This involves the application of specific techniques such as a Business Transformation Readiness Assessment and a Business Value Assessment. These assessments help determine the organization's readiness for the proposed changes and evaluate the expected benefits against the potential risks, ensuring that the architecture can deliver sufficient value to justify the transformation. This approach aligns with TOGAF 9 guidelines for managing and mitigating risks in the architecture implementation process.

selecting D as the ask is about identifying and managing risk. D talks about BTRA. Check section 26.4.3 and 26.5. Both talks about how BTRA done in Phase A should be looked at in phase e,f and even in phase G. As Readiness assessment document is a live document and should be looked at before actual implementation.

OCHT · Answer

The Business Value Assessment is used to identify the benefits, costs, and risks of executing the architecture project, which will help in determining if the proposed architecture can produce sufficient value to warrant the attendant risks. This is directly addressing the concerns raised by the senior management.

The other options A, B, and C do not directly address the concerns raised by the senior management about the potential risks and value of the proposed architecture.
