Which of the following is not a phase of the ADM?

  1. A. Preliminary

  2. B. Phase C: Requirements Architecture

  3. C. Phase F: Migration Planning

  4. D. Phase D: Technology Architecture

The correct answer is: B. Phase C: Requirements Architecture

The correct response identifies a choice that does not align with the phases of the Architecture Development Method (ADM) in TOGAF. The ADM outlines a structured process for developing and managing architecture, and each phase has a specific focus and deliverables. The Preliminary phase serves as the foundation, preparing the organization for architecture work. Phases D (Technology Architecture) and C (Requirements Architecture) are integral parts that involve detailing technology needs and the specific requirements that drive the architecture. However, the term "Requirements Architecture" is not a designated phase within the ADM. Instead, requirements are addressed throughout the phases in various forms, but there is no specific phase solely dedicated to "Requirements Architecture." This distinction clarifies that the correct answer is indeed a term not officially recognized as a standalone phase, while the other options represent established components of the ADM framework.
