Explanation

In the Preliminary Phase, TOGAF establishes that business imperatives - including strategic goals, business drivers, and organizational objectives - are the primary driver for scoping the enterprise architecture effort and defining its requirements and performance metrics. Business imperatives define what the architecture must ultimately deliver and succeed at. Architecture governance defines how architecture will be managed, time horizon shapes planning periods, and SLAs are outcomes - but none of these drive the initial scoping the way business imperatives do.
