Certification of Capability in Business Analysis (CCBA) — Question 436

The business analyst (BA) is analyzing the formal relationships between people working in the enterprise. Which technique will the BA use to perform this task?

Answer options

• A. Organizational modelling
• B. Stakeholder modelling
• C. Focus groups
• D. Functional decomposition

Correct answer: A

Explanation

Organizational modelling is specifically designed to understand and analyze the formal relationships and structures within an organization, making it the correct choice. Stakeholder modelling focuses on identifying and managing stakeholders rather than relationships, while focus groups are used for gathering qualitative data. Functional decomposition breaks down processes into smaller parts, which does not pertain directly to analyzing relationships.
