CompTIA Data+ (DA0-001) — Question 305

A business intelligence team wants to create a new dashboard in order to solve a problem statement. Which of the following is the correct order of steps the team should take?

Answer options

• A. Determine business needs, find data sources, validate the data, create a mock-up, and analyze the information.
• B. Find data sources, determine business needs, validate the data, create a mock-up, and analyze the information.
• C. Create a mock-up, validate the data, analyze the information, determine business needs, and find data sources.
• D. Validate the data, find data sources, analyze the information, and determine business needs.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

Option A is correct because it follows a logical progression starting with identifying business needs, which informs the rest of the steps. The other options misplace the order, with B starting with data sources rather than needs, C beginning with a mock-up without understanding requirements, and D omitting the essential step of determining needs prior to analyzing data.
