CCAR-P: Claude Certified Architect — Professional

Question

A solutions architect is reviewing stakeholder feedback gathered after the first quarter of a Claude-powered procurement automation deployment.

The feedback contains four statements:

(1) “Our procurement team is processing 3x more purchase orders per analyst per day.”

(2) “We have eliminated the manual data entry role entirely and redeployed those staff to vendor relationship management.”

(3) “The API integration costs are running 40% over the projected per-transaction budget.”

(4) “Response latency during end-of-month batch runs is averaging 11 seconds, against our committed 5-second SLA.”

Which option correctly identifies the primary business-value pillar represented by each stakeholder statement?

Explanation

Processing three times as many purchase orders per analyst increases throughput and reduces effort per transaction within the existing workflow, which is Efficiency. Eliminating manual data-entry work and moving staff to vendor relationship management redesigns responsibilities around higher-value work, which is Transformation. A 40% API-cost overrun is a Solution Cost concern, while 11-second latency against a committed 5-second target is a Performance SLA issue. Anthropic describes automation that frees professionals for strategic work as transforming the workflow.
