This chapter defines the deliverables that will typically be consumed and produced across the TOGAF ADM cycle. As
deliverables are typically the contractual or formal work products of an architecture project, it is likely that these
deliverables will be constrained or altered by any overarching project or process management for the enterprise (such
as CMMI, PRINCE2, PMBOK, or MSP).
This chapter therefore is intended to provide a typical baseline of architecture deliverables in order to better define
the activities required in the ADM and act as a starting point for tailoring within a specific organization.
The TOGAF Content Framework (see Part IV, Introduction) identifies deliverables that are produced as outputs from
executing the ADM cycle and potentially consumed as inputs at other points in the ADM. Other deliverables may be
produced elsewhere and consumed by the ADM.
Deliverables produced by executing the ADM are shown in the table below.
