Certification of Capability in Business Analysis (CCBA) — Question 44

A business analyst (BA) has identified the impacts and resolution for a proposed change. Based on the Responsible, Accountable, Consulted, Informed (RACI) matrix, who must approve the change before it is implemented?

Answer options

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The business sponsor is the key individual who must approve changes since they are ultimately accountable for the project's success and resource allocation. While the project manager oversees implementation and the system architect and subject matter expert provide insights, they do not have the final authority to approve changes.
