- 3. 1 Purpose of this Document This document is a Statement of Architecture Work for the <<XXX project>>. The Statement of Architecture Work defines the scope and approach that will be used to complete an architecture project. The Statement of Architecture Work is typically the document against which successful execution of the architecture project will be measured and may form the basis for a contractual agreement between the supplier and consumer of architecture services. In general, all the information in this document should be at a high level. It may be that the Statement of Architecture Work is documented using a wiki or as an intranet rather than a text-based document. Even better would be to use a licensed TOGAF tool that captures this output. This template shows “typical” contents of a Statement of Architecture Work and can be adapted to align with any TOGAF adaptation being implemented.

- 7. 5 Architecture Approach 5.1 Architecture Process The TOGAF Architecture Development Method (ADM) defines a best-practice methodology for architecture development. However, not all phases are necessarily equally relevant to every project. The table below describes the usage of the ADM for this particular project. Phase In/Out Notes Preliminary A – Architecture Vision B – Business Architecture <<Baseline and/or Target?>> C – Information Systems Architecture <<Baseline and/or Target?>> D – Technology Architecture <<Baseline and/or Target?>> E – Opportunities and Solutions F – Migration Planning G – Implementation Governance H – Architecture Change Management Requirements Management <<Provide any further notes on phasing, iterations, etc.>> 5.2 Architecture Content The TOGAF Architecture Content Framework (ACF) provides a best-practice categorization of architecture content. However, not all items are necessarily equally relevant to every project. The table below describes the content areas relevant to this particular project.

In what sequence will these activities be approached?) · Iteration – any use of iteration in the ADM? · Partitioning – any relationships to other architecture work within a partitioned environment?>> TOGAF™ 9 Template: Statement of Architecture Work 9 Copyright © 2010 The Open Group.
