The Open Group OGBA-101 Exam - Topic 6 Question 43 Discussion

Posted by Kina on Jun 13, 2025 at 10:43 AM

Which of the following is the element of a value stream stage that describes the end state condition denoting the completion of the value stream stage?

Suggested Answer: B

In TOGAF's Business Architecture, a value stream stage is a high-level representation of a sequence of activities that create value for an organization. The end state condition denoting the completion of a value stream stage is known as the 'Exit Criteria.' This term is used to specify the conditions that must be met for the stage to be considered complete, ensuring that the output meets the required quality and performance standards before progressing to the next stage. The concept of 'Exit Criteria' is essential to ensure that each stage of the value stream adds the expected value and aligns with the overall business objectives.

Okay, I think I've got this. The key is to focus on the "end state condition" part of the question. That points to the exit criteria as the right answer.
