TOGAF ADM Phase B (Part 2 of 2) — Architecture Requirements Specification

Provides a set of quantitative statements that outline what an implementation project must do in order to comply with the architecture. This video shows you how to develop an Architecture Requirements Specification.

Architecture Requirements Specification Deliverable

Purpose

The Architecture Requirements Specification provides a set of quantitative statements that outline what an implementation project must do in order to comply with the architecture. An Architecture Requirements Specification will typically form a major component of an implementation contract or contract for more detailed Architecture Definition.

As mentioned above, the Architecture Requirements Specification is a companion to the Architecture Definition Document, with a complementary objective:

  • The Architecture Definition Document provides a qualitative view of the solution and aims to communicate the intent of the architect.
  • The Architecture Requirements Specification provides a quantitative view of the solution, stating measurable criteria that must be met during the implementation of the architecture.

Content

Typical contents of an Architecture Requirements Specification are:

  • Success measures
  • Architecture requirements
  • Business service contracts
  • Application service contracts
  • Implementation guidelines
  • Implementation specifications
  • Implementation standards
  • Interoperability requirements
  • IT Service Management requirements
  • Constraints
  • Assumptions
