Certified Business Analysis Professional (CBAP) — Question 179

Zoe is the business analyst for her organization. She is currently prioritizing the requirements based on the implementation difficulty of the requirements to help with the solution planning.
Which of the following best describes the approach Zoe is taking with requirements prioritization?

Answer options

• A. The requirements are categorized by type of work, and then ranked within each category of ease of implementation to difficulty of implementation.
• B. The requirements are ranked most difficult to easiest to implement.
• C. The requirements are ranked from easiest to hardest to implement.
• D. The requirements are categorized by the likelihood of management approving the requirements.

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B because Zoe is prioritizing the requirements based on their implementation difficulty, which implies she is ranking them from most challenging to least challenging. The other options either misinterpret her method or focus on different criteria for prioritization, such as approval likelihood or categorization by type, which does not align with her current approach.
