NEW QUESTION 27
A business analyst (BA) is determining the current state as part of a new project. What is an internal enterprise asset that the BA must include in the analysis?
- A. Enterprise mission statement
- B. Organizational structure
- C. Business need
- D. Brand name
Answer: C
Explanation:
The starting point for any change is an understanding of why the change is needed. Potential change is triggered by problems or opportunities that cannot be addressed without altering the current state. Business analysts work to help stakeholders enable change by exploring and articulating the business needs that drive the desire to change. Without clearly understood business needs, it is impossible to develop a coherent strategy, and the resulting change initiative is almost certain to be driven by a mix of conflicting stakeholder demands.
Change always occurs in a context of existing stakeholders, processes, technology, and policies which constitute the current state of the enterprise. Business analysts examine the current state in the context of the business need to understand what may influence proposed changes, and what will be affected by them. The current state is explored in just enough detail to validate the need for a change and/or the change strategy.
Understanding the current state of the enterprise prior to the change is necessary to identify what will need to change to achieve a desired future state and how the effect of the change will be assessed.

- C. Face-to-face meetings
- D. Costs
Answer: B

B is incorrect. Face-to-face meetings are often the best type of communication, but this isn't the
best choice presented.
D is incorrect. Risks do not necessarily increase because the stakeholders are not collocated.
A is incorrect. Costs do not necessarily increase in the business analysis approach because of
the dispersed stakeholders.

Two business analysts (BAs) are working on a requirement elicitation activity. One BA comes across a checklist that contains stakeholder details such as who are involved, location, group dynamics that are to be considered before beginning the elicitation activity and seeks a clarification from the second BA.
The other BA explains that these details, along with several other items mentioned in the checklist, are required to:
- A. select elicitation techniques.
- B. secure supporting material.
- C. understand scope of elicitation.
- D. prepare stakeholders.
Answer: D
Explanation:
Business analysts may need to educate stakeholders on how an elicitation technique works or what information is needed. It may be helpful to explain an elicitation technique to stakeholders not involved in the activity to help them understand the validity and relevance of the information elicited. Stakeholders may be unresponsive or challenging during an elicitation activity if they feel that it is not aligned to their individual objectives, don't understand the purpose, or are confused about the process. In preparing for elicitation, the business analyst should ensure that there is buy-in from all necessary stakeholders. Business analysts may also prepare stakeholders by requesting that they review supporting materials prior to the elicitation activity in order to make it as effective as possible. An agenda might be provided in advance to support stakeholders in coming prepared to the activity with the necessary frame of mind and information. Eliciting through research or exploration may be a solo activity for the business analyst and not require preparing other stakeholders.
