Chapter 2
The Architecture Development Method


This chapter describes the Architecture Development Method (ADM), its relationship to the rest of TOGAF, and high-level considerations for its use. It also includes a summary of each phase within the ADM.

Topics addressed in this chapter include:

•   An introduction to the ADM

•   The phases of the ADM

•   The objectives, steps, inputs, and outputs to the ADM phases

•   Requirements Management during the ADM cycle

•   Scoping the architecture activity

2.1 What is the ADM?


The ADM, a result of contributions from many architecture practitioners, forms the core of TOGAF. It is a method for deriving organization-specific enterprise architectures and is specifically designed to address business requirements. The ADM describes:

•   A reliable, proven way of developing and using an enterprise architecture

•   A method of developing architectures on different levels4 (business, application, data, technology) that enable the architect to ensure that a complex set of requirements are adequately addressed

•   A set of guidelines and techniques for architecture development

2.2 What are the Phases of the ADM?


The ADM consists of a number of phases that cycle through a range of architecture domains that enable the architect to ensure that a complex set of requirements is adequately addressed. The basic structure of the ADM is shown in Figure 2.

Figure 2: The Architecture Development Method Cycle

The ADM is applied iteratively throughout the entire process, between phases, and within them. Throughout the ADM cycle, there should be frequent validation of results against the original requirements, both those for the whole ADM cycle, and those for the particular phase of the process. Such validation should reconsider scope, detail, schedules, and milestones. Each phase should consider assets produced from previous iterations of the process and external assets from the marketplace, such as other frameworks or models.

The ADM supports the concept of iteration at three levels:

•   Cycling around the ADM: The ADM is presented in a circular manner indicating that the completion of one phase of architecture work directly feeds into subsequent phases of architecture work.

•   Iterating between phases: TOGAF describes the concept of iterating across phases (e.g., returning to Business Architecture on completion of Technology Architecture).

•   Cycling around a single phase: TOGAF supports repeated execution of the activities within a single ADM phase as a technique for elaborating architectural content.

Further information on iteration is given in TOGAF, Part III: ADM Guidelines and Techniques (see Chapter 4).

Table 3: Architecture Development Method Activities by Phase

ADM Phase

Activity

Prepare the organization for successful TOGAF architecture projects. Undertake the preparation and initiation activities required to create an Architecture Capability, including the customization of TOGAF, selection of tools, and the definition of Architecture Principles.

Every stage of a TOGAF project is based on and validates business requirements.

Requirements are identified, stored, and fed into and out of the relevant ADM phases, which dispose of, address, and prioritize requirements.

Set the scope, constraints, and expectations for a TOGAF project. Create the Architecture Vision. Identify stakeholders. Validate the business context and create the Statement of Architecture Work. Obtain approvals.

Develop architectures in four domains:

1. Business

2. Information Systems – Application

3. Information Systems – Data

4. Technology

In each case, develop the Baseline and Target Architecture and analyze gaps.

Perform initial implementation planning and the identification of delivery vehicles for the building blocks identified in the previous phases. Determine whether an incremental approach is required, and if so identify Transition Architectures.

Develop detailed Implementation and Migration Plan that addresses how to move from the Baseline to the Target Architecture.

Provide architectural oversight for the implementation. Prepare and issue Architecture Contracts. Ensure that the implementation project conforms to the architecture.

Provide continual monitoring and a change management process to ensure that the architecture responds to the needs of the enterprise and maximizes the value of the architecture to the business.

2.3 The ADM in Detail


The following tables summarize the objectives, steps, and the inputs and outputs5 of each phase of the ADM cycle.

2.3.1 Preliminary Phase

The Preliminary phase prepares an organization to undertake successful enterprise architecture projects.

An overview of the phase is given below:

Objectives

Steps

Determine the Architecture Capability desired by the organization:

•   Review the organizational context for conducting enterprise architecture

•   Identify and scope the elements of the enterprise organizations affected by the Architecture Capability

•   Identify the established frameworks, methods, and processes that intersect with the Architecture Capability

•   Establish Capability Maturity target

Establish the Architecture Capability:

•   Define and establish the Organizational Model for Enterprise Architecture

•   Define and establish the detailed process and resources for architecture governance

•   Select and implement tools that support the architecture activity

•   Define the Architecture Principles

Scope the enterprise organizations impacted

Confirm governance and support frameworks

Define and establish enterprise architecture team and organization

Identify and establish architecture principles

Tailor TOGAF and, if any, other selected Architecture Frameworks

Implement architecture tools

Inputs

Outputs

TOGAF

Other architecture framework(s)

Board strategies, business plans, business strategy, IT Strategy, business principles, business goals, and business drivers

Governance and legal frameworks

Organizational model for enterprise architecture

Tailored Architecture Framework, including architecture principles

Initial Architecture Repository

Architecture capability

Partnership and contract agreements

Existing organizational model for enterprise architecture

Existing architecture framework, if any, including:

•   Architecture method

•   Architecture content

•   Configured and deployed tools

•   Architecture Principles

•   Architecture Repository

Restatement of, or reference to, business principles, business goals, and business drivers

Request for Architecture Work

Governance Framework

2.3.2 Phase A: Architecture Vision

Phase A is about project establishment and initiates an iteration of the architecture development cycle, setting the scope, constraints, and expectations for the iteration. It is required in order to validate the business context and to create the approved Statement of Architecture Work.

Objectives

Steps

Develop a high-level aspirational vision of the capabilities and business value to be delivered as a result of the proposed enterprise architecture

Obtain approval for a Statement of Architecture Work that defines a program of works to develop and deploy the architecture outlined in the Architecture Vision

Establish the architecture project

Identify stakeholders, concerns, and business requirements

Confirm and elaborate business goals, business drivers, and constraints

Evaluate business capabilities

Assess readiness for business transformation

Define scope

Confirm and elaborate architecture principles, including business principles

Develop Architecture Vision

Define the Target Architecture value propositions and KPIs Identify the...
