You are the business analyst for your organization and management has asked that you identify opportunities to improve the operations of the business. You notice that some of the stakeholders use several pieces of software and several duplicate activities within each software package to generate data reports for customers. What type of recommendation can you make in regard to this observation?
You are the business analyst for your organization and are coaching Roberta on how business analysis works.
Roberta is confused about what a business analysis methodology is during the business analysis planning and monitoring phase of the business analysis duties.
What is a methodology?
Henry is the business analyst for his organization. Management has created a pre-determined budget of $450,000 for his solution. Henry has identified the project requirements but now wants to prioritize them based on timeboxing and budgeting. Henry examines the cost of the requirements and begins removing the requirements from the allowed list in order to meet the $450,000 budget. What timeboxing or budgeting approach is Henry using?
A business analyst is helping management determine which solution they should choose. As it happens that the organization can only choose one of the two solutions due to time and resource restrictions. Solution A worths $456,000 to the organization while solution B worths $565,000 to the organization. While solution A costs less, it is less risky and takes less time to complete so management elects to seize Solution A.
What is the opportunity cost?
The business analyst (BA) has been tasked with assessing and recommending the best solution that fits an organization's need for a new third-party sales tool.
What technique would be used for identifying suitable options?
