Certification of Capability in Business Analysis (CCBA) — Question 137

A company wants to increase its market share in the industry and its Board has prioritized capabilities that need to be implemented to achieve the goal. The business requirements for the top priority were signed off and the solution design has been completed. Due to technical constraints, it is not feasible to implement all the requirements at the same time. What must the business analyst (BA) do to deal with this situation?

Answer options

• A. Redefine the business requirements associated with each implementation
• B. Recommend a reduction in the project scope
• C. Allocate requirements to different releases
• D. Ensure all requirements are traceable using a matrix

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because allocating requirements to different releases allows for a phased approach to implementation, addressing technical constraints while still meeting business goals. Option A, redefining requirements, may lead to confusion and misalignment with business objectives. Option B, reducing project scope, may compromise the overall goal, and D, ensuring traceability, is important but does not directly address the implementation issue.
