What is NOT a part of the work conducted in the Preliminary Phase?

The work conducted in the Preliminary Phase of the TOGAF framework focuses primarily on establishing the architecture framework and ensuring that all stakeholders understand and agree to the architectural work that will be performed. During this phase, important activities include scoping the enterprise, identifying key drivers that influence architecture decisions, and defining the initial requirements for architecture work that align with business goals.

Defining Architecture Contracts is typically part of the Architecture Development Cycle and comes later in the process, after the architecture principles and frameworks have been established and agreed upon in earlier phases. This involves formal agreements on the deliverables, timelines, and responsibilities of different stakeholders in the architecture projects. Therefore, it is not part of the Preliminary Phase activities.
