PMI Professional in Business Analysis (PMI-PBA) — Question 73

The business analysts have concluded a requirements elicitation workshop. They now need to define rationale for each requirement.
Which of the following pairs of items would be important to include in the rationale?

Answer options

• A. Reasons and assumptions
• B. Functional relationships and work breakdown structure code
• C. Product vision and operational relationships
• D. Stakeholder impact and design decisions

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because providing reasons and assumptions helps clarify the thought process behind each requirement, ensuring stakeholders understand the context. The other options, while relevant to project management or design, do not directly address the need for justifying the requirements themselves.
