Certified Business Analysis Professional (CBAP) — Question 206

A project is implemented using a predictive approach. Unfortunately, a lot of change requests (CR) have been raised. A project manager (PM), who should approve each change request, is overworked.
What could the business analyst (BA) propose to make things better?

Answer options

• A. Approve the CRs independently for the PM
• B. Transfer responsibility from the PM to a project's sponsor
• C. Revisit the Business Analysis Governance approach
• D. Decline CRs because of the approach

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because revisiting the Business Analysis Governance approach can streamline the change request process and improve efficiency. Options A and B may not align with governance policies, and D is not a viable solution as it dismisses necessary changes that could benefit the project.
