PMI Professional in Business Analysis (PMI-PBA) — Question 60
A new business analyst has taken over on a project that is in the development phase. The project manager is looking for an update on requirements status.
What should the business analyst use to help communicate the status?
Answer options
- A. Business analysis plan
- B. Traceability matrix
- C. Project charter
- D. Communication plan
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The Traceability matrix is the correct answer because it tracks the status of requirements throughout the project, ensuring that all requirements are accounted for and met. The Business analysis plan outlines the analysis approach but does not provide status updates, while the Project charter defines the project scope and objectives, and the Communication plan details how information will be shared but does not specifically track requirements.
