Certification of Capability in Business Analysis (CCBA) — Question 499

A business analyst (BA) was asked to send the requirement details to the project manager (PM), director, vice president (VP), and Chief Information Officer (CIO). The BA shares the complete set of requirements to the PM and director, while creating a summarized version for the VP and CIO. Which aspect of requirement specification and modeling was the BA performing?

Answer options

• A. Perform stakeholder analysis
• B. Organize requirements categories
• C. Determine approval authority
• D. Implement appropriate level of abstraction

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The BA was applying an appropriate level of abstraction by tailoring the details shared with different stakeholders based on their needs and roles. Providing full requirements to the PM and director is necessary for detailed oversight, while summarizing for the VP and CIO ensures they receive relevant information without unnecessary detail. The other options do not accurately describe the BA's actions in this scenario.
