Northern Trail Outfitters (WO) istransforming its service experience. NTO has created a RACI matrix to understand the key stakeholders' responsibilities for activities and decisions during a Salesforce Field Service discovery workshop.
Which three NTO stakeholders should a Solution Architect recommend be defined as Consulted during the discovery workshop?
Choose 3 answers
During the discovery workshop for Salesforce Field Service, consulting with the Field Service Manager, Business Analyst, and Field Service Agent is essential. The Field Service Manager provides insight into operational needs and challenges, the Business Analyst contributes an understanding of technical requirements and process optimizations, and the Field Service Agent offers a frontline perspective on service delivery and customer interactions. Involving these stakeholders ensures that the solution architect gathers comprehensive insights into the service operations, aligning the Salesforce Field Service implementation with the actual needs and workflows of the organization, consistent with Salesforce's best practices for stakeholder engagement in discovery sessions.
Northern Trail Outfitters (NTO) is currently using Salesforce CPQ and would like to implement B2B Commerce Classes. NTO uses a Partner Community to allow partners to build complex bundles to provide detailed quotes to clients. NTO also wants to ensure that it does not have to maintain two databases of products.
Which two considerations should a Solution Architect keep in mind about the CPQ B28 Commerce Connector when synchronizing Product and Price data?
Choose 2 answers
When synchronizing product and price data between Salesforce CPQ and B2B Commerce using the CPQ B2B Commerce Connector, it's important to understand its capabilities and limitations. The connector is designed to sync simple products with straightforward pricing structures, but it does not support the synchronization of complex CPQ bundles that involve multiple components and pricing rules. This limitation requires careful planning around product catalog management and may necessitate custom solutions or workarounds for complex product offerings, aligning with Salesforce's documentation and best practices for using the CPQ B2B Commerce Connector.
Northern Trail Outfitters (NTO) is running amulti-cloud Salesforce implementation with lots of process integration between the clouds and other systems. During the project, NTO faces many challenges including a lack of agility and business value alignment, as well as silo-thinking. After trying different approaches, NTO begins to use Agile and is successful. The project manager now wonders what the recommended operating model would look like.
What should be a Solution Architect's first recommendation?
A Scaled Agile Center of Excellence (LACE) is a smallteam of people dedicated to implementing the SAFe Lean-Agile way of working1.A LACE can be used to gather information, lead change, share best practices, and keep people on the same page as theorganization moves forward2.A LACE is a cornerstone of successful transformations because it encourages continuity and manages expectations3.
By establishing a LACE, NTO can leverage the benefits of agile at scale, such as faster delivery, higher quality, lower costs, and happier customers31.A LACE can also help NTO overcome the challenges of silo-thinking and lack of alignment by fostering collaboration and communication across different teams and systems21.
Universal Containers (UC) currently has Sales Cloud for its direct Sales team and is about to implement Revenue Cloud for them as well. UC is also bringing in Experience Cloud for its indirect Sales team which will integrate with Sales Cloud and Revenue Cloud. The CIO would like to make surethey are working from a single operating model when it comes to defining their cross-departmental process and data utilization. The CIO wants to make sure there is no duplication of any data or processes that will require data hygiene constantly because ofduplicative efforts.
What are the two initial questions a Solution Architect should ask the business in order to select the right operating model for business process standardization?
Choose 2 answers
According to SOGAF Operating Models1, an operating model has two dimensions: business process standardization and business process integration. Business process standardization refers to how similar or different are the processes across different units of an organization, such as direct and indirect sales teams. Business process integration refers to how much data is shared across different units of an organization, such as direct and indirect sales teams.
By asking these two questions, a Solution Architect can determine which of the four types of operating models (coordination, diversification, replication, or unification) best suits Universal Containers' needs for cross-departmental process and data utilization1.
To select the right operating model, the Solution Architect should ask:
C) Are the processes the same for the direct Sales team and indirect Sales team? Understanding if the sales processes differ significantly between teams will influence the design of the operating model.
D) Is the data shared between the direct Sales team and indirect Sales team? Knowing how data is shared helps to determine the extent to which systems need to be integrated and whether data duplication can be avoided.
A Solution Architect is delivering a multi-cloud implementation to a client. A diagram is required to communicate the vision and strategy of the solution to the business executives and stakeholders at a high level without going into too much detailed technical information.
Which type of architecture diagram should the Solution Architect use?
A Solution Architecture Diagram shows the high-level view of the solution components and how they relate to each other. It also shows the key business capabilities and objectives thatthe solution supports. It does not go into too much detail about the technical implementation or configuration of each component.
A Solution Architecture Diagram can help you communicate the vision and strategy of your multi-cloud solution to the businessexecutives and stakeholders at a high level without overwhelming them with too much technical information.
