PMI Professional in Business Analysis (PMI-PBA) — Question 74

A business analyst has captured all of the requirements from the various stakeholders within the organization and has compiled them into a complete list. After reviewing the list of requirements with the stakeholders, it is determined that the list of requirements is too large and will exceed the allotted budget.
Which tool or technique should the business analyst use with the stakeholders to prioritize the requirements to determine which requirements are approved, deferred, or rejected?

Answer options

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A, SMART Goals, as they help in defining specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-bound objectives which can assist in prioritizing requirements effectively. The other options, while useful in different contexts, do not focus directly on the prioritization of requirements in relation to budget constraints.
