Answer Options
Correct Answer: C
Explanation

An opportunity is a situation in which it is possible for an organization to perform more effectively or efficiently, or to better meet the needs and desires of its stakeholders1.One type of opportunity is increased efficiency, which means reducing the amount of resources, time, or effort required to produce the same or better results2.In this question, preventing different stakeholders from performing the same function in distinctly different ways can lead to increased efficiency by eliminating duplication, inconsistency, and confusion.Reference:1: BABOK Guide v3, Section 3.12:Business Efficiency

Question 5

A business analyst (BA) has completed an impact analysis of a proposed change, gained approval for the change, and has updated the requirements. The project sponsor wants to be updated with an overview of the results. How should the BA communicate the results?

Answer Options
Correct Answer: B
Explanation

The best way to communicate the results of an impact analysis and a change approval to the project sponsor is to present the requirements at a high-level. This means that the BA should provide a summary of the main changes, the rationale behind them, the expected benefits and costs, and the impact on the solution scope and quality. A high-level presentation can be done verbally or in writing, depending on the preference and availability of the project sponsor. A high-level presentation is different from scheduling a requirements workshop, which is a technique to elicit, analyze, or validate requirements with a group of stakeholders; emailing the requirements package, which is a document that organizes and presents the requirements for a specific purpose, audience, or time frame; and creating use case scenarios, which are examples of how the solution will be used by the actors to achieve their goals.Reference:
