    Scenario:
    Please read this scenario prior to answering the question
    The ABC company is the prime contractor for the Telesto Unmanned Spacecraft program. Over the course of this contract, the company has grown rapidly by acquisition and has inherited numerous different procurement processes and related IT systems. The company is moving aggressively to consolidate and reduce redundant procurement processes and systems. The CEO has announced that the company will seek to leverage higher volume discounts and lower related IT support costs by instituting a preferred supplier program.
    To achieve this goal, the company needs to define Baseline and Target Architectures. These architectures must address key stakeholders' concerns such as:
    1. What groups of people should be involved in procurement-related business processes?
    2. What current applications do those groups use?
    3. Which procurement-related business processes are supported by zero, one, or many existing applications?
    4. What are the overall lifetimes of the Request for Proposal and Purchase Order business objects? What non-procurement applications will need to be integrated with any new procurement applications?
    5. What data will need to be shared?
    At present, there are no particularly useful architectural assets related to this initiative, so all assets need to be acquired and customized or created from scratch. The company prefers to implement existing package applications from systems vendors with little customization.
    The architecture development project has just completed its Architecture Context iteration cycle and is about to begin the Architecture Definition iteration cycle. The company is using TOGAF for its internal Enterprise Architecture activities. It uses an iterative approach for executing Architecture Development Method (ADM) projects.
    The architecture development project has just completed its Architecture Context iteration cycle and is about to begin the Architecture Definition iteration cycle.
    Refer to the Scenario.
    You are serving as the Lead Architect.
    You have been asked to identify the most appropriate architecture viewpoints for this situation.
    Based on TOGAF 9, which of the following is the best answer?
    A: In the early iterations of the Architecture Definition:
    Describe the Baseline Business Architecture with a Baseline Business Process catalog

    Describe the Baseline Application Architecture with a Technology Portfolio catalog

    Describe the Baseline Data Architecture with a Data diagram

    In the later iterations of the Architecture Definition:
    Describe the Target Business Architecture with an Actor/Process/Data catalog

    Describe the Target Application Architecture with a System/Technology matrix

    Describe the Target Data Architecture with a Data Dissemination diagram

    B: In the early iterations of the Architecture Definition:
    Describe the Target Business Architecture with a Business Service/Function catalog and a

    Business Interaction matrix
    Describe the key business objects with Product Lifecycle diagrams

    Describe the Target Application Architecture with Application Communication diagrams and an

    Application Interaction matrix
    Describe the Target Data Architecture with a Data Entity/business Function matrix and a System/

    Data matrix
    In the later iterations of the Architecture Definition:
    Describe the Baseline Business Architecture with a Business Service/Function catalog and a

    Business Interaction matrix
    Describe the Baseline Application Architecture with a System/Organization matrix and a System/

    function matrix
    Describe the Baseline Data Architecture with a Data Entity/Data Component catalog

    C: In the early iterations of the Architecture Definition:
    Describe the Target Business Architecture with a Business Service/Function catalog and an

    Organization/Actor catalog
    Describe the key business objects with Data Lifecycle diagrams

    Describe the Target Application Architecture with Application Communication diagrams and an

    Application Interaction matrix
    Describe the Target Data Architecture with a System/Data matrix

    In the later iterations of the Architecture Definition:

    Business Interaction matrix
    Describe the Baseline Application Architecture with an Application and User Location diagram and a

    System/Function matrix
    Describe the Baseline Data Architecture with a Data Entity/Data Component catalog

    D: In the early iterations of the Architecture Definition:
    Describe the Baseline Business Architecture with an Organization/Actor catalog

    Describe the Baseline Application Architecture with a System/Function matrix

    Describe the Baseline Data Architecture using a Data Entity/Data Component catalog

    In the later iterations of the Architecture Definition:

    Scenario
    Please read this scenario prior to answering the Question
    You are serving as an Enterprise Architect at a large aerospace company. It designs, manufactures and sells civil and military aviation products worldwide and manufactures in multiple countries both inside and outside of the European Union. The company has grown rapidly by acquisition and has inherited numerous different procurement processes and related IT systems.
    Recently, several procurement processes, within the civil aviation business, have has problems related to the timing of purchases, which has led to excess inventory. The Vice President in charge of Supply Chain Management has made the decision to consolidate and reduce redundant procurement processes and systems. He has committed to the CEO that the business will move to a "Just-in-time" procurement system so as to keep inventory costs low.
    The TOGAF standard is used for internal Enterprise Architecture activities. At present, there are no architectural assets in the Architecture Repository related to this initiative. All assets will need to be acquired, customized, or created from scratch. The company prefers to implement commercial off the shelf package applications with little customization. The CIO, who is the project sponsor, has stated that she is not concerned about preserving the existing procurement processes or systems.
    This project is using an iterative approach for executing the Architecture Development Method (ADM). The architecture development project has completed the Architecture Vision Phase and has started a number of iteration cycles to develop the Architecture. As a packaged application is being considered, the next iteration will include both the Business and Application Architectures.
    Stakeholders concerns that should be addressed by these architectures include:
    1. What groups of people should be involved in procurement-related business processes?
    2. What applications will these groups use once the architecture development is complete?
    3. What non-procurement applications will need to be integrated with the new procurement applications?
    4. What are the dependences between the non-procurement and the new procurement applications?
    Refer to the Scenario
    [Note: You may need to refer to the Architectural Artifacts chapter, section 31.6 (located in Part IV) within the reference text in order to answer this question.] You have been asked to identify the most appropriate catalogs, matrices, and diagrams to support the next iteration of Architecture development.
    Based on the TOGAF standard, which of the following is the best answer?
