Certification of Capability in Business Analysis (CCBA) — Question 187

A software company wants to make a gradual change from its traditional way of developing requirements to a more adaptive approach. A business analyst (BA) is hired to quantify the probability that the solution will meet the company's needs and assess the relevant risks. Which element of risk assessment does the BA need to consider?

Answer options

• A. Positive Evaluation Results
• B. Issue Management
• C. Negative Impact to Value
• D. Risk Tolerance

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B, Issue Management, as it involves identifying, assessing, and responding to risks that may arise during the project. The other options are not directly related to managing risks; for instance, A relates to assessing outcomes, C addresses potential negative consequences, and D pertains to the level of risk an organization is willing to accept.
