TOGAF 9 Combined Part 1 and Part 2 — Question 285

Which of the following statements about TOGAF Building Blocks and their use in the ADM cycle is correct?

Answer options

• A. Building Blocks become more implementation-specific in Phase E
• B. Building Blocks in phases D, E and F are evolved to a common pattern of steps
• C. Building Blocks should be identified in abstract form as part of the Preliminary Phase
• D. Building Blocks should be first selected in Phase D

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because in Phase E of the ADM cycle, Building Blocks are tailored to fit specific implementations, making them more context-dependent. Options B and D are incorrect as they misrepresent the roles of Building Blocks in the respective phases, while C inaccurately suggests that Building Blocks are purely abstract when they can also be identified in a more concrete manner.
