Certified Business Analysis Professional (CBAP) — Question 235

You have completed the requirements documentation and the stakeholders have signed off on the requirements. Now the requirements are advancing into a project as your organization has chartered a project based on the identified requirements.
What stakeholder is now responsible for assessing the solution scope to determine the project scope?

Answer options

• A. Project sponsor
• B. Project manager
• C. Business analyst
• D. Key stakeholders

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The project manager is responsible for assessing the solution scope to define the project scope, as they oversee the planning and execution of the project. The project sponsor provides support and funding, while the business analyst focuses on requirements gathering, and key stakeholders may provide input but do not have the primary responsibility for scope assessment.
