I have been looking through your videos, tools, etc…
I have a few questions for clarity so that I know the right way to think through using TOGAF as a framework. Any input/help would be appreciated.

Once you go through the 10 phases one time it seems that a few of the phases are re-usable. For instance governance and approval from the EA team/board would not change with a new architecture request. What exactly would you re-visit and what would you not need to when going through each new iteration of the ADM cycle?

I saw your flowchart of how PMBOK might work with TOGAF. This would mean that Togaf is the centralized tool instead of PMBOK and at some point it would be sent to the PMBOK process once the architecture was done. How do most people work this handoff? I have seen a lot of organizations be in the middle of a project and they make an architecture request as a side note that they could add to the project collateral. It seems as if TOGAF changes this mindset and comes first before the project ever kicks off. Any input on this?
These will help frame a few other thoughts/questions I am having.
