Entry Certificate in Business Analysis (ECBA) — Question 38

Which of the following accurately describes a stakeholder's role during future state analysis?

Answer options

• A. A regulator would ensure an envisioned future state can be sufficiently tested and can help set an appropriate level of quality to target.
• B. An end user would help determine which business needs to address and sets the business objective that a future state will achieve.
• C. A project manager would be directly involved in supporting the operations of the enterprise.
• D. A domain subject matter expert would provide insight into current state and potential states.

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer, D, is accurate because a domain subject matter expert possesses the necessary knowledge to provide valuable insights into both the current and potential future states. Options A, B, and C incorrectly describe roles that do not focus on the analysis of future states; rather, they pertain to regulatory assurance, business objectives, and operational support, respectively.
