Certified Business Analysis Professional (CBAP) — Question 186

A business analyst (BA) is working on a stakeholder collaboration plan. The main goal is to select the approaches that work best to meet the needs of external and internal stakeholders.
Which aspects should be taken into account?

Answer options

• A. Collaboration skills of BA
• B. Solution design
• C. Timing and frequency of collaboration
• D. Business governance plan

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The timing and frequency of collaboration are crucial because they determine how often stakeholders can engage and share input, ensuring their needs are met in a timely manner. While collaboration skills, solution design, and the business governance plan are important, they do not directly influence the mechanisms of stakeholder engagement as much as the timing and frequency do.
