PMI Professional in Business Analysis (PMI-PBA) — Question 112
The business analyst has been assigned to a project which delivers functionality for a much larger solution. The project has many requirements but has not received adequate funding. In addition, the stakeholders’ views conflict.
Which tools and techniques should the business analyst use to maximize business value while establishing the requirements baseline?
Answer options
- A. Decision trees, weighted matrix, and context diagrams.
- B. Traceability matrix, context diagrams, and scope document.
- C. Weighted matrix, process flow, and organizational chart
- D. Stakeholder register, decision tree, and capability matrix
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is C because a weighted matrix helps prioritize requirements based on their value, while process flows provide a visual representation of processes and organizational charts clarify stakeholder roles. The other options include tools that are less effective in aligning conflicting stakeholder views and prioritizing requirements under funding constraints.
