Building deliverables for Phase A: Architecture Vision
In Phase A of the TOGAF Architecture Development Method (ADM) you establish the scope of the architecture effort, get buy in from senior management and line management, and develop the vision of the architecture effort.
For a full description on how to build the architecture at this phase, see the TOGAF documentation at:
The phase starts with a Request for Architecture Work, delivered from the sponsoring organization to the architecture organization, and results in a the production of a Statement of Architecture Work.
