Q: 3
You are working as an Enterprise Architect within an Enterprise Architecture (EA) team at a large
government agency with multiple divisions. The agency has a well-established EA practice and
follows the TOGAF standard as its method for architecture development. The government has
mandated that the agency prepare for an "AI-first" world.
The agency wants to determine the impact and role of AI in its future services. The CIO has approved
a Request for Architecture Work to explore the use of AI in services. Some leaders are concerned
about reliance on AI, security, and employees’ need to acquire new skills.
The EA team leader seeks suggestions on managing the risks associated with a new architecture for
the AI-first project. Based on the TOGAF standard, which of the following is the best answer?

A. since B’s Communication Plan isn’t where TOGAF tracks risks. Pretty sure A is what the exam wants, agree?
A. That's the usual TOGAF step, risks in Vision and Requirements. Not 100 percent sure, but it's what I've always seen.
Nah, I don’t think it’s B. A lines up with how TOGAF wants risks and stakeholder concerns handled-recorded in the Architecture Vision and Requirements Specification. B’s communication plan part sounds nice but skips the actual risk documentation bit. Practice tests usually frame it closer to A, unless I'm missing something.
A is the one that actually ties to TOGAF best. Stakeholder analysis and logging risks/concerns early in the Architecture Vision and Requirements docs is straight out of ADM. Other options miss the proper risk management bit. Pretty sure it's A, but if anyone thinks something else fits better for ongoing phases, let me know.
I don’t think B is right, that’s more about communication than direct risk management per TOGAF. A covers documenting concerns and risks. A.
Had something like this in a mock, it's A.
I think B is a solid pick here. Communication Plan and risk management both get mentioned in TOGAF guides, and official practice tests sometimes focus on those process areas. That said, the risk docs step isn't as clear, so maybe it's not spot on. If you’ve got the official guide handy, worth double-checking!
A official study guide and practice tests both emphasize documenting risks in the Architecture Vision and Requirements Spec. Pretty sure that's the TOGAF approach. If anyone's seen exam questions worded differently, let me know.
I don’t think B is right, A lines up better with TOGAF ADM since it covers documenting risks and stakeholder concerns in the proper places. B sounds good but kind of misses the explicit risk recording bit. Seen similar wording on test preps.
Similar question popped up on an official practice test, pretty sure it’s B.
