Explanation

The Architecture Development Method (ADM) is the core of TOGAF and provides a step-by-step, iterative approach to developing an enterprise architecture. It consists of a Preliminary Phase followed by Phases A through H, plus a central Requirements Management process. The ADM Guidelines and Techniques (Part III of TOGAF 9) support the ADM but are not the method itself. The Architecture Capability Framework provides guidance for establishing an architecture practice, and the Architecture Content Framework defines what artifacts are produced - neither describes the step-by-step development process.
