TOGAF 9 Combined Part 1 and Part 2 — Question 247

Complete the sentence. In a gap analysis, a building block that appears in the Target Architecture but does not appear in the Baseline Architecture indicates
_____

Answer options

• A. nonconformant solution building blocks
• B. an error has occurred and the architecture must be re-evaluated
• C. requirements have not been properly documented
• D. functionality that should be eliminated
• E. a new function that must be built or procured

Correct answer: E

Explanation

The correct answer, E, signifies that the absence of a building block in the Baseline Architecture indicates the need to create or acquire new functionality. Options A, B, C, and D do not accurately reflect the significance of the gap, which is focused on the need for new functionality rather than errors or documentation issues.
